Description
This tour is led by a real working NYC comedian who doesn’t just guide the experience — they perform in the live show at the end. You’ll get a fast, funny crash course in the history of stand‑up comedy as you walk through Greenwich Village, then see your guide take the stage alongside other New York comics. It’s the only tour that combines comedy history, insider storytelling, and a live stand‑up performance from your own guide.

Laugh, drink and walk around NYC!
I didn't know what to expect, what is a comedy HISTORY tour? But I soon found out about all the places where stand up was perfected! As I local I also enjoyed learning things I didn't know about NYC! Oh and the comedy show at the end was amazing!!!

Amazing fun!
Enjoyable walking Comedy Tour which gives good history of the neighborhood and how comedy came to me in the village! Some funny jokes along the way too! 😊

Definitely worth attending!
I’ve been to a couple of these shows and they never disappoint! The comedians are great, the atmosphere and crowd are always wonderful too. Prices are super reasonable and the locations are near other spots to go to for dinner or drinks before/after the show. I highly recommend if you’re in town!

Highly recommend
Incredible tour! Takes you back in time and makes you appreciate the history grind of the NYC comedy scene that made some of the most legendary names. Simple to walk and hit all the spots, tour guide covered a ton of information and it ended with a dope comedy show with 2 free drinks which was included in the ticket. Highly recommend over the done and dusted touristy spots.
