Free Coney Island History and Food Tour

I had booked Alex' Coney Island tour during my trip to NYC in Oct 2023. By some strange twist of fate, everyone else canceled and I ended up being the lone survivor. Alex very graciously and warmly still went ahead with the tour. He had some great stories to tell, showed me the history of the Islands, gave me a peak into its socio-cultural and socio-economic lineage, and even took me to the indigenous food markets there. I can also be quite the Chatty Kathy if I'm in the mood and I'm pleased to report that Alex was equally participative in our mutually shared banter. :) The group tour which became a private tour was an absolute delight and I'd highly recommend everyone to go for this. Not to mention, you'd see one of the most gorgeous sunsets of your lives from Coney Islands if you're lucky!

Alex is an amazing guide! We had the best time and he really knows a lot!! He is very kind and offers to help with every question you have including other spots you want to visit in NYC. Regarding the tour itself I think there might be other tours where you can see more but Alex did his best to make it as interesting and enjoyable as possible!! It was still really nice to see a quite unusual side of NYC (there is a beach?!).

Very interesting and engaging tour with Alex. Can only recommend the Coney Island tour to learn about this iconic part of the city

Die Tour mit Alex hat uns viel Freude bereitet. Er war hervorragend informiert, hat viel Hintergrundwissen, und uns einen interessanten Stadtteil gezeigt. Seine Sprache war sehr gut verständlich. Wir freuen uns auf die nächste Tour mit ihm.

Very interesting tour. Alex is an excellent tour guide; passionate and knowledgeable about his subject matter. This was the third tour I have taken with Alex.
