Radical & Weird History Bike Tour of New York City

Overview

What separates my guided tours from the others is mine are customized based on the interests of my guests. The small group experience allows me to customize the route and stops, provide more options, and work together to create a unique itinerary.

The landmarks visited, the topics discussed, and the food & drink break options are all thoughtful inclusions I believe my guests will find a personal connection with.

The conversations held at each point of interest aim to build an appreciation of those who made New York City. At the end of the day, I hope to leave everyone, including myself, feeling inspired and moved by what they saw and learned.
