First of all I have to say that we had another tour booked that cancelled on us because of the weather. We booked this tour last minute and it did not disappoint. Our guide Ramona met us on a blustery snow driven afternoon dressed in 19th century woolen clothing which I was hoping was keeping her warm! Her knowledge and enthusiasm was enough to keep her warm and kept us engaged throughout our entire 1.5 + hr journey through the tip of Manhattan. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in the neighborhood gangs of NY, pirates and the history of the immigrants who settled in this area in these tough and turbulent times. Thank you for enduring the weather with us Ramona!

Ramona was a fantastic guide and super knowledgeable! Despite most of the buildings being lost to history, she still brought the past to life in a very engaging and informative way. I highly recommend this tour, or any other Tommy’s New York tours.
