Free Walking Tours through the Alternative New York

Great guide - great tour. Saw lots of great places we would have walked by including the delightful story of the Puerto Rican community and la puente. Thanks David!

It was amazing! Thank you so much, we had a wonderful time.

Kassi was wonderful.

The tour was very interesting and funny. Kassi told us a lot of information about the city and gave us a lot of tips. The tour is very well organized.

Luis did an amazing job touring us around Williamsburg. His insights and knowledge were vast and he was so knowledgable. We learned so much about this area that we didn't know. He was professional, smart and helpful. I would highly recommend a tour with guruwalks and especially Luis! Such a great way to see a neighborhood and learn the history of the area.

Luis was an outstanding guide. He led us through the different areas of the neighborhood, immersing us in its history, sharing anecdotes, and helping us discover small hidden spots we would have never found on our own. Throughout the tour, he made sure we understood everything (since it wasn’t our native language), and afterward he also showed us part of the Latin neighborhood, giving us very detailed tips and recommendations. I absolutely recommend him, one of the best experiences in New York!

What a wonderful Tour with a excellent and well prepared young lady from Bogota/Columbia. We had a great conversation full of informations and fun.

Really cool, give the tour a try!

Eine tolle Tour durch Jackson Heights! Viel über die Nachbarschaft, die vielen Nationen, tolle Restaurants und Shops erfahren.

Es war eine außergewöhnliche Tour, die sehr viele Seiten der williamsburger Geschichte gezeigt hat. Luis war sehr sympathisch, geduldig und hat alle unsere Fragen super beantwortet. Außerdem haben wir sehr gute Empfehlungen bekommen. Viele Dank!

Luis ist ein besonderer Guide. Er hat sich sehr viel Zeit für uns genommen, ist auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen und hat die Tour zu einem wirklich unvergesslichem Erlebnis für uns gemacht. Absolute Empfehlung!

We did a few NYC tours over a couple of days and this was stand out the best one. Davide combined personal experience with great historical knowledge and took us into places which we wouldn’t have found by ourselves like the little Puerto Rican bar and managed to make the visits really natural so we didn’t feel awkward. He’s genuinely interested in his subject has a great delivery of the info and I’d highly recommend his tours.

I had such a great experience with Kassi — I actually got lost in the heat of a Christmas market, and she was kind enough to contact me right away so I could rejoin the tour. That level of care says everything about how dedicated she is. Having this experience with a true local meant so much. She shared helpful insider tips like how to get cheap Broadway tickets, where to find affordable keepsakes that won’t break the bank, and even the best spots to grab a bite in Hell’s Kitchen after the tour. Her bio describes her as a longtime New Yorker, storyteller, comedian, history lover, and licensed NYC Gold Star Tour Guide — and she truly lives up to it. She brings the city to life with her energy, humor, and real insider knowledge. If you want a guide who’s passionate, attentive, and genuinely fun to explore with, Kassi is the perfect choice. Highly recommend!

I joined a free walk tour in Midtown NYC with Kassi and had a great experience. We started at Grand Central and moved through Bryant Park and Times Square before finishing in the Hells Kitchen neighborhood. Kassi kept the group engaged, shared interesting stories at every stop, and made the walk feel fun and effortless. It was a great way to explore the area, and I highly recommend her tour

The tour was full of helpful tips and intersting stories about NYC.

Eine tolle Erfahrung. Man sieht Dinge, die man als "normaler" Touri nicht sieht. Ein absolutes Highlight war der Besuch einer traditionell jüdischen Bäckerei. Natalia konnte man sejr gut verstehen (auch als nicht-Muttersprachler). Sie war sehr freundlich, sympathisch und hilfsbereit. Ich würde die Tour jederzeit wieder machen und anderen empfehlen.

Great tour. We found out a lot about New York. Great experience and our guru was knowledge and entertaining. I would reccomend

This is a fantastic walking tour of Williamsburg! Our guide Luis was incredibly knowledgeable about the history & communities of the area, as well as being professional and welcoming. The tour covered a lot of ground and was both engaging and educational. Highly recommend this tour as a way to get to know Williamsburg better.

Juan‘s tour was such an interesting, informative and positive experience! Time flew by. So happy and delighted to have been there. Thank you.

Great tour, really enjoyed and learned. I highly recommend.

Fascinating tour of a culturally diverse part of Queens with great food options; led by an excellent guide.

Louis was an excellent Tour Guide. I can highly recommend this tour, it lasted around 3hrs and I learned so many things about Williamsburg. Louis is very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail.

Luis was very knowledgeable

Nice blend of history and culture!
