Overview
We’ll walk and spill tea on the most jaw-dropping scandals, affairs, misdeeds, and yes, even murders, that took place on the streets of NYC.
Walking Tours are curated and custom NYC walking tours for curious locals and New York-minded guests led by Melissa Friedman, a licensed NYC tour guide, masters candidate in urban planning, and lifelong lover of this magical and complicated city, and obsessive long distance walker.
On a tour, you’ll learn, laugh, and get your steps in. Most importantly, you’ll never look or feel like a clueless tourist.
