“Jennifer was amazing. Her passion for the park was evident. She was very patient with our 2 10 year olds and made them feel special, including them in the conversation, altering the route to accommodate their interests, and answered a million questions (mostly not related to the tour subject). We learned a lot and laughed a lot. It was a perfect experience for us.”
“Jennifer took us in Central Park for a bike tour. We experienced not only the park, its history, architectural and natural aspects, but we learned something more about Americans, their way of thinking and their proudly kind way of being and living. Jennifer is a fantastic person: we can only highly recommend this experience for all who want to make a profound experience of New York.”
“Jennifer is an amazing tour guide with the knowledge and energy to keep you captivated and extremely happy with the meet up. A truly genuine lover of her work it was a fabulous morning and i would definitely do other tours with her.Central park has so much history i wouldn’t of known half as much doing it without her.”

Each holiday season, I am a holiday guide for tour owner and friend Marco who offers fun and festive tours this time of year. Christmas in New York is how I describe a CITY PRODUCTION like no other that takes place from the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade until New Year’s Day. My usual love for NYC is elevated all the more this time of year. Guiding Marco’s tours with so many kind guests is my end of the year reminder that the world is FULL of magic.
To book one of Marco’s Christmas Tours with JEN as your guide, Contact Me directly where I will forward my schedule that overlaps with your visit. All guides are holiday believers! If wishing to book with any of Marco’s helpers, click here to book directly.
BOTH tours follow the SAME route. Main difference is the TYPE of bus.
Description for BOTH Tours: Top-notch Bus Tour to and from Times Square is a combination of riding and walking from Manhattan to Brooklyn making walk stops in DYKER HEIGHTS for Christmas Lights and DUMBO for Night Skyline.
In DYKER HEIGHTS we will stop to walk one hour admiring the most beautifully lit decorated houses.
In DUMBO we will stop for 45 minutes to admire the less than 5 minute walk to skyline by night and, if you want, eat a slice of pizza in perfect New York style.
The tour ends in Times Square, near the same place where it started. MORE INFO about these tours, please check out Marco’s Instagram (@mychristmasinewyork) dedicated ALL year to this special time of year.
