Main features:

Find out about Hell Gate’s ship-swallowing whirlpools.

Learn about the plot to blow up the Hell Gate Bridge.

Discover the river pirates of the Hell Gate islands.

Hear about the Hell Gate Explosions and the General Slocum Disaster.

Peer at the jail complex of Rikers Island and the quarantine ruins of North Brother Island.

The Hell Gate Tour by Purefinder New York blew me away with its unique blend of history, mystery, and captivating storytelling. This tour uncovers a part of New York that even many lifelong New Yorkers don't fully appreciate. I have lived here for over 13 years and had no idea of the deep and fascinating past of this area of the city. We were lucky enough to have Krombie, the creator and owner of Purefinder, as a guide. She was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the specifics of Hell Gate's history but also brought it to life with an authenticity and passion that's infectious. Walking through this often overlooked area, hearing about the lives that once revolved around the Hell Gate waters, and seeing the remnants of the past gave me a new appreciation for this city's rich heritage. Whether you are a New Yorker or a visitor eager to dig deeper than the usual tourist spots, you will be glad you ventured on this tour!

Krombie is one of the best storytellers on the planet, and her Hell Gate tour was rich in history. So cool learning about the foiled Nazi plot to blow up Hell Gate Bridge, and about the massive whirlpool that used to exist at Hell Gate and destroy ships. Oh, and all the Hollywood movie tie ins to the area was an unexpected treat! Go solo and make friends, or bring friends for a fun group activity, you can't go wrong and it's a lovely way to spend an afternoon
