Description

New York City is the basis for Gotham City, the home of Spiderman, Daredevil, Captain America, and Dr Strange, you knew that? But did you know that both Marvel and DC have had their main offices here in NYC, and that many of the actors who have portrayed these characters have also lived in NYC? This is available as a two hour walking tour of midtown, or a full four hour chauffeured tour of all different super hero locations in Manhattan.

Super Hero Tour of NYC for a win!

Jon was fantastic—so knowledgeable and engaging! We got so much more out of our NYC tour than we ever would have exploring on our own. I highly recommend him. Our group included me (47), my son (27), three women in their mid‑twenties, and a toddler, and every single one of us walked away having learned something new. Jon’s expertise on the city, paired with his fun superhero factoids, made the experience unforgettable.

Take the Tour!

Jon was fantastic and did a great job with his segways into revealing super hero history/inside scoop. It did not feel like we walked as far as we did because of how entertaining/informative Jon was. The weather was warm but not bad at all. He took some amazing pics for us at iconic places as well!
