Description

Created by internationally acclaimed Italian writer Andrea Careri, a bestselling author known for his books on New York and American pop culture, this tour is a tribute to the gritty and electrifying New York of the 1990s-the golden age of hip-hop, the Yankees, the Knicks, iconic movies and legendary crime stories.

Step into the past as we explore New York's most dangerous neighborhoods of the 1990s-places that still pulsate with raw, unfiltered energy. From the birth of legendary gangs to the golden era of old school hip-hop, this tour takes you into the heart of the city, unveiling legendary murals, untold stories, and local spots that shaped its culture.

This immersive experience begins in Hell's Kitchen-once one of Manhattan's most feared neighborhoods-then heads to the tougher corners of the Bronx and Harlem. We will visit the birthplace of Mike Tyson and the streets where the Notorious B.I.G. made history. Along the way, we'll stop at Spike Lee's production house, explore iconic bookstores and soak in the cool atmosphere of Brooklyn-the epicenter of New York's music and film industry, home to actors, musicians and producers.

We will also visit legendary landmarks such as Yankee Stadium, the Joker Stairs, the Apollo Theater, and spectacular murals, such as Notorious B.I.G.'s in Brooklyn.

What makes our tour truly unique? Exclusive access to hidden gems: a legendary coffee shop, an iconic barbershop frequented by baseball stars and hip-hop legends, and other local spots that bring you closer to the real New York.

And because no authentic New York experience is complete without it, we'll take the subway-adding the ultimate sense of immersion on this unforgettable tour.
