Description

This is a private walking tour, for groups up to 10 people. That guarantees a personalized experience. Take a journey from New York's past to its future! On this guided tour of Manhattan's west side, we will journey from the historic Meatpacking District up to the growing Hudson Yards neighborhood via the popular High Line park. This park began its life as a freight goods railway along the Hudson River and has been reborn as one of the city's most popular destinations, blending nature and art. Come discover why! All the while, your guide will provide historic photos for reference. As we make our way north, you will see fascinating historic architecture, as well as new developments by Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, Bjarke Ingels, and many more. Then discover the largest private real estate development in NYC history: Hudson Yards! See the Vessel, the Shed, some of the city's tallest skyscrapers, and more.

Place with beautiful views to enjoy nature with family and friends in NYC.

Walking through an elevated linear park is a great experience, where a greenway and a railroad trail more than 2 kilometers long created on an old branch of the New York Central Railroad takes us to enjoy nature and offers fantastic views of the Hudson River and the New York City skyline on the west side of Manhattan, where one can find during the walk beautiful sculptures, places to snack in addition if we want to rest we have numerous benches throughout the tour.

An Amazing Tour!

What an amazing tour! Anyone can walk the High Line, but to have the history, timeline and details associated with this project made it all the more relevant and worthwhile. Jeremy, our guide, was considerate, knowledgeable, and eager to answer our many questions! We highly recommend this tour - what a great history lesson of the Meatpacking District and getting a glimpse in to the future in this area of NYC!

Thank you for the review!

The tour was interesting,...

The tour was interesting, I'm sure having a guide made it more enjoyable but compared to other guides we have encountered he was a little dry.

Operator response

I sincerely apologize if the tour was not as expected. I do believe I provide an exceptional tour: Private and customized service, covering not just the High Line itself (history, evolution, landscaping), but details on all its surrounding neighborhoods, and their architecture old and new. In addition to well-researched historic photos all along the way for context. If there's something specific that would have made the tour livelier, please feel free to reach out.

Interesting and stimulating tour that brings NYC history to life

This tour was a wonderful experience. I learned so much about the history of NYC and about this brilliant urban renewal and artistic project. Hats off to Jeffrey who was a warm and knowledgeable guide. I enjoyed this tour very much and highly recommend it.

Brilliant!

Surprisingly we enjoyed this, started at Hudson Yards and walked only a short distance but it was refreshing. It is hidden in between housing and businesses. Some very expensive looking properties. It is a great place to get away from the hectic NYC.

Great Tour

Excellent tour. The guide was very well educated on the areas we were seeing and used photos to enhance his presentations on the historical aspects of the places we visited. He also answered every question wonderfully.

Enriching Tour of Highline

What an enriching experience to have a tour guide! Great historic photos and information. The guide was wonderful. He pointed out views that we had missed in the past. We now have a full appreciation of the Highline and surrounding area.
