Full description
Immerse yourself in Manhattan's rich history and vibrant culture on this private half-day tour, which takes in some of its most iconic neighbourhoods: Greenwich Village, Soho, Little Italy and Chinatown. Start your tour in Greenwich Village, known as ‘The Village’, a bohemian neighbourhood that has been home to artists and writers such as Hemingway, Edgar Allan Poe and Jackson Pollock. In this charming place, you'll see the famous ‘Friends’ building and historic Washington Square Park, a lively meeting place in the city. You'll also learn about the Stonewall Riots, a milestone in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights, and see the monument dedicated to this important event.
The tour continues through the artistic streets of Soho, where you'll discover its history, from its humble beginnings as a manufacturing centre to its transformation into a neighbourhood full of art galleries and fashion boutiques. Here you can admire the famous cast-iron buildings, such as the Haughwout Building, which was home to the first safe lift in New York. You'll also see the former NYPD headquarters, an impressive Beaux-Arts style building.
In Little Italy, you'll delve into the history of Italian immigration to New York and how this neighbourhood became the heart of the Italian community in the city. You'll visit the old St. Patrick's Cathedral, built in the 19th century, and learn about the influence of the Mafia in the area, with a stop at the infamous Ravenite Club, a former meeting place for gangsters. You'll also see Lombardi's, America's first pizzeria, opened in 1905, and visit Alleva Dairy, the city's oldest cheese shop.
Finally, the tour will take you to Chinatown, where you'll walk through narrow streets steeped in history, such as Canal and Motts Streets, formerly part of the Five Points district, known for its dense immigrant population and the gangs that fought for control of the neighbourhood. Here, your guide will tell you about the hardships and triumphs of Chinese immigrants who came to New York in search of a better future, while you discover ancient sites such as the old opium dens and hear tales of violent power struggles in the community.
The tour ends in the heart of Little Italy, a vibrant enclave full of Italian restaurants and shops where you can enjoy the local atmosphere. Your guide will be happy to recommend some of the best places to eat or continue exploring at your own pace.
