Learning the history of the tycoons who built their mansions on 5th Avenue. Our guide Kevin was awesome. Very knowledgeable and well versed in history

Kevin was a dynamic, engaging, deeply knowledgeable guide through some of the most beautiful homes and estates built during New York’s Guilded Age. We learned so much about the city, the era, and the people who shaped the time. Can’t recommend highly enough!
