✨A Note on Pricing: Help Us Build the Best Tour✨

We've launched a fully redesigned route! To ensure our reviews truly reflect this revamped, radical experience, the initial fee only covers your bike rental.
We ask that you pay your guide directly upon completion of the tour. A guide payment of $40 per person is recommended. This not only allows us to gather highly relevant feedback but also provides better value for you: your payment avoids service fees and maximizes direct support for your local expert.


The tour:

On this bicycle excursion throughout Lower Manhattan, We'll visit many key highlights as well as some less conspicuous marvels. Your guide will introduce gems that can easily be overlooked yet contain incredible stories. We'll use these landmarks to delve in to the origins of various counter-cultural movements like Greenwich Village's Beatnik era and The Yiddish anarchist movement from the Lower East Side.

Above the more straightforward history, this experience is curated to include your guide's most personally inspiring morsels of local history, and will leave each guest with a surprising amount of knowledge about New York City for a four hour tour.



This experience begins and ends in TriBeCa.
