Overview

Join me on a private walking tour of Hoboken, a charming waterfront city only half-a-mile (0,8km) west of Manhattan, across the Hudson River. Look it up on Google Maps!

Hoboken is an oft-overlooked gem whose skyline views, riverfront parks, industrial past, immigrant influences, brownstones, cafes, shops and food offer a unique look at local life and history.

Accessible from Manhattan via ferry (5-10 mins), train (10-15 mins) or Uber/Lyft. Choose MEET IN HOBOKEN or MEET IN MANHATTAN when booking. Contact us to determine the best option for your group.

Step away from New York City's tourist crowds — feel like you're visiting a friend — leave with a better understanding of local life!

Scroll down for full itinerary (under ITINERARY or WHAT TO EXPECT). Certain mobile apps do not show these details, so you may need to view on the web.
