Very interesting tour with a very lively guide. Helene is a very dynamic, full of story, person. We enjoyed and learned a lot during this tour.

This tour is the most unique, underrated and interesting tour I have done in NYC (and in my 2 weeks in NYC I have done almost all the walking tours advertised!). Marc was at the meeting point early and even though I was the only one who booked that tour slot he kept the tour just for me! Marc is in his late 70s and has lived in the Village his entire life. He knows, met, dined with or has detailed information about artists, musicians, actors, dancers (and more) who lived and worked in the Greenwich Village which he will tell you along the way. Additionally, he adds personal stories, shows before and after pictures and tells you interesting history of each street in the Village. Marc extended the tour and it lasted almost 3 hours where we zigzagged across EVERY street in the West Village. He does this for fun and to share his experiences and stories with others, so its a TRUE WITH-A-LOCAL TOUR. Absolutely grateful to have had this opportunity to learn first-hand from someone who saw and experienced it. This is the only tour you need to do for an authentic street by street tour of Greenwich Village! You end up seeing everything in-between the Meatpacking District to Soho. Thank you very much Marc for a lovely stroll, sharing your personal stories and an above and beyond tour. Will definitely do it again when next in NYC.

Mark was interesting and provided a personal as well as historical insight into Greenwich Village. We walked the entire village and Mark had stories for every street.
