Great private guide in New York. Perfect amount of flexibility for organizing a personalized tour, with numerous points of interest throughout the tour on various points of view: the choice of characteristic and iconic places of NYC, anecdotes and curiosities both cultural and social. Advice on meals to eat and places to visit independently.

Denis was a fantastic guide, the places seen were much appreciated as well as the anecdotes and story he told us along the way. He is very nice and helpful, easygoing and with many interesting ideas to share. My girlfriend and I highly recommend it!

We did the private tour of central park with Denis. It was a wonderful and super prepared guide. He made us rediscover all the wonders of the park between history and curiosity. Get to know all the iconic places of the place between past and modern movies. New York is a beautiful city but he has the ability to make you fall in love even more. Simply the top. Oh, congratulations. If we ever needed another tour we'd definitely know who to call.

The perfect guide

Anahit Z, Aug 2025

Meeting a trained and courteous tour guide is what every tourist hopes but meeting and knowing also THE PERSON who will then inevitably be associated with that trip is a great fortune. My family and I have had this luck. Denis has the gift of transmitting to his clients not only notions but also his passion for NYC and, thanks to stories and personal anecdotes, is able to make the tours educational but at the same time fun (fundamental point for those traveling with children). Denis is very helpful, carefully follows the needs of customers, creates empathy and provides support (which is absolutely not obvious) even after his hours are over. Super!
