This tour was no walk in the park. It was so much more. I’ve taken a number of Central Park tours, all good, but this was in a class by itself. A wealth of information, beautifully presented. And INTERESTING information that takes off where other tours end. As promised, it’s what the City doesn’t want you to see; but it’s what YOU want to see. Too dark, too strange, too funny, too mysterious, too scandalous. And fascinating every minute. Purefinder does the best tours in the most interesting city on Earth.

It’s a fantastic tour that gave me a fresh perspective on Central Park, a place I pass by every day. The two-hour duration makes it the perfect start to a Sunday morning. I recommend it to anyone looking to spend time outdoors while discovering some of the city’s lesser-known stories.
