It’s easy to see a lot in NYC but hard to know what it all means. Anyone can recognize Chinatown or Little Italy but to get the history of these places takes some research. This tour provides all the details about the history of these two areas plus more without having to consult your phone or worse, a tour book. Our tour guide, Rebecca, moved our group through the streets, stopping for photos, pointing out interesting architectural elements and historically significant events with added details. She brought together common knowledge, pertinent historical facts and some fun trivia. We were entertained while also learning! What a treat! I would highly recommend this tour, and this tour guide in particular, to anyone visiting NYC for the first time or the 100th. There is always more to learn about this great city and Top Dog Tours knows how to package it in an appealing, easy to accomplish way. There is walking involved but there are many stops and much shade so even on a hot day it felt effortless.
