Description

Explore Midtown Manhattan’s hidden stories, iconic landmarks, and historic streets on a guided walking tour ending with panoramic views from the Empire State Building Observatory.

Begin beneath the famous Tiffany Clock on Fifth Avenue, where your guide will introduce you to the stories behind one of New York City’s most fascinating neighbourhoods. Admire the iconic Flatiron Building, the elegant Fifth Avenue Hotel, and the lively atmosphere of Madison Square Park, where you’ll enjoy incredible views of the Empire State Building rising above the skyline.

As you continue north along Fifth Avenue, uncover the hidden stories behind New York’s Gilded Age architecture and the people who shaped the city. See landmarks including the Metropolitan Life Insurance Building, the New York Life Building, and the site of the original Madison Square Garden while hearing tales of politicians, entrepreneurs, and cultural icons.

Walk through the historic Tin Pan Alley district, once the centre of America’s music industry, and discover beautiful hidden gems including Marble Collegiate Church and the charming “Little Church Around the Corner.”

Experience the vibrant atmosphere of Koreatown before arriving in bustling Herald Square, home to the legendary Macy’s flagship store and some of the city’s best views of the Empire State Building.

Your experience concludes with entry to the Empire State Building Observatory, where you’ll take in breathtaking 360-degree views across Manhattan and beyond. From the top, spot many of the landmarks you explored during your walk from a whole new perspective.
