New York City, Private & Group Tours
Beyond guidebooks. Beyond checklists. Real connection, with the city and the people who love it.
"Exploring New York with a friend who knows every corner, that's what Jen from the City feels like."
Your guide
I've spent years uncovering the real New York: the back streets of Astoria, the hidden trails of Central Park, the storefronts on Fifth Avenue that most people walk straight past. My tours aren't scripted, they're conversations with a city I genuinely love.
My mission is simple: connect real New York to real guests. Every tour balances the iconic with the unexpected, leaving you lighter than when you arrived.
