About this activity
Settled during colonial times Greenwich Village gets its name because it was a village in the woods north of what then a tiny New York City. As such, the streets of Greenwich Village don't follow the same grid pattern as the rest of Manhattan so we'll wander streets so secluded you'll forget you're in NYC. We'll pass some celebrity homes and celebrity sightings on this tour are not unusual. Some of the sites you can expect to see include but are not limited to:

Washington Square Park

Edgar Allan Poe House

NYU

Triangle Shirtwaist Fire Site

Mark Twain's Home

Jefferson Market Library

Finally we will tour the High Line. A former freight line in the middle of Manhattan it has been transformed into a beautiful, elevated urban park.

Your guide will give you history and stories while adding a very personal touch to your tour.
