Descripción general Escape the hustle and bustle of Midtown Manhattan with a private tour of Central Park, where you can discover the park's most popular spots and the filming locations of some of the most iconic movies and TV shows. Central Park, with its 843 acres of nature in the heart of the city, has been a recurring backdrop for films and TV series that have shaped New York's history.

During this private guided tour, you will enjoy a leisurely stroll through the park as you explore the most famous locations that have appeared in film and television productions such as *Breakfast at Tiffany's*, *My Poor Little Angel*, *Vanilla Sky*, *The Smurfs*, *Friends*, *Sex and the City* and *Gossip Girl*.

The tour will begin at the iconic Pulitzer Fountain, located in Grand Army Plaza, on the corner of 59th Street and the famous Fifth Avenue. From there, your guide will lead you into the vast and iconic Central Park. As you make your way through the park, you will be immersed in its natural beauty and the history that has been captured in numerous Hollywood productions.

The first stop will be the enchanting Gapstow Bridge, known for being the place where Kevin meets the Pigeon Lady in *My Poor Little Angel 2*. From here, you'll enjoy views of the Plaza Hotel, another iconic site that has been featured in films such as Alfred Hitchcock's *With Death on Our Heels* and *The Great Gatsby*.

Continue your walk to the Wollman Rink, a popular spot that has been featured in many film and television productions since its opening in 1949. A few steps away, you'll come across *The Dairy*, a fairytale-like visitors' centre with its neo-Gothic style, which originally provided milk to the children of New York. This picturesque building is also a perfect film set.

The tour will continue with a stop at the historic Central Park Carousel, which dates back to 1908 and houses the largest hand-carved wooden horses of any carousel in the world. This nostalgic nook has witnessed many movie scenes over the years.

You'll also explore *A Native Meadow*, a vibrant habitat for insects, bees and butterflies, a lively green space that contrasts with the urban hustle and bustle. Nearby, you'll see the statue of Balto, the famous sled dog who helped save the lives of children in Alaska by transporting life-saving medicines in a race against time.

As you make your way along *The Mall*, an iconic promenade surrounded by majestic elm trees, you'll be amazed by sculptures of pioneers and literary figures such as Shakespeare and Robert Burns. You'll also be impressed by the newly erected monument to women's rights pioneers. It's at this point that you'll learn more about classic scenes from films such as *Breakfast at Tiffany's* and *Kramer vs.

Along the way, you'll also stop at the Naumburg Bandshell, which has been the site of many concerts, and where Martin Luther King gave a memorable speech. In addition, a moving reading was held here in honour of John Lennon after his tragic death.

The tour would not be complete without a visit to the majestic Bethesda Terrace and the *Angel of the Waters* fountain, two of the park's most photographed landmarks. Both have been featured in a variety of films and series, including *The Avengers*. From here, you'll walk to the *Bow Bridge*, one of the city's most romantic bridges and an iconic landmark that has been featured in films such as *Spiderman 3*.

The tour takes you to *Cherry Hill*, a charming corner with its namesake fountain, where the cherry blossom trees offer an idyllic view over the lake. This place has been part of productions such as *Cross Intentions* and *The Mirror Has Two Faces*. You can also admire the *Ladies Pavilion*, an elegant structure built in 1871 that offers a haven of serenity overlooking the lake.

Finally, the tour will conclude at *Strawberry Fields*, a 2.5-acre garden dedicated to John Lennon and named after the Beatles' song *Strawberry Fields Forever*. This space is a permanent tribute to the musician's legacy and offers a peaceful and reflective environment.

Central Park holds a special place in everyone's imagination. This vast green space, larger than Monaco and the Vatican combined, is a haven of peace in the heart of one of the world's most bustling cities. With the expert guidance of your escort, you will explore the most picturesque corners of the park, while discovering the details of its history and reliving scenes from your favourite films and TV shows.
