Beautiful tour, well organized and highly recommended to get a complete overview of this neighborhood steeped in art. Joel was a great guide, he explained clearly and not verbosely and above all with a great accent, finally a guide that you understand well.

I took the Greenwich Villiage at Night walking tour and it did not disappoint! It was during the most recent heat wave but the tour started at 7pm and was mostly through cool and shady tree-lined streets. Our Guide Maddy was enthusiastic and informative and didn’t just repeat facts. She was animated and engaging and you could tell how excited she was to share her vast knowledge of not only the neighborhood, but of the city as a whole, the individual businesses along the way, and even some of the local residents, both past and present. She really made the tour come alive by linking historical and current events in a way that made them really memorable and personal. The tour ended up at the Stonewall memorial and while she recounted what happened on the very spot almost to the day in 1969, the City of New York was placing barriers to close the street down in preparation for that weekend’s Pride Parade! It was a very powerful moment! A couple on our tour mentioned that they were heading to Boston after NYC and Maddy even gave them personal recommendations of places to see and tours to take in Boston. The tour was powerful and felt personal and the two hours flew by! I cannot wait to take more tours with Top Dog and Maddy!

The tour was really nice! We got to know a little bit more about Greenwich village. A good option for those who only speak Spanish since there are no many tours available in this language! Thank you for this unforgettable experience and for sharing your knowledge with us!
