Overview

Experience the Upper West Side through one of its most beloved treats—cookies—on a relaxed, mile-long guided walking tour that blends generous tastings with cultural and architectural history.

You’ll visit a curated selection of standout bakeries, each either founded in New York City or a small, women-owned business, and sample a range of cookies that showcase different styles, techniques, and flavors. Between bites, your guide (a professional historian) will bring the Upper West Side to life, sharing stories of its food culture, architectural character, and history.

This is more than a dessert tour—it’s a flavorful way to understand the neighborhood, one cookie at a time.
