Much fun was had.....
An absolute treasure trove of history, poetry and fun stories about Greenwich Village - this isn't a "dry" or overly intellectual journey, it balances the artistic and cultural stuff with plenty of smiles and laughs, highly recommended.
Operator response
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're delighted that you enjoyed the mix of history, poetry, and fun on our tour. Striking that balance between culture and a good laugh is what we aim for, so it's wonderful to hear it resonated with you. We hope to welcome you back for more stories on our other tours throughout NYC! :D
