What To Expect
New York Times Building
Times Square was named in honor of The New York Times, so it is fitting that we begin our tour in front of its newest location. However, The New York Times already had a rich and impressive history in this Times Square area -- long before this building went up. It is also located across the street from the busiest bus terminal in the world. You'll hear about that and much more...
Times Square
From the bustling 42nd Street to 48th Street in Times Square -- you'll enjoy many sights, sounds, locations, stories, histories and insider secrets of the most visited tourist destination in the world.

5.00I had a good time. This was my first trip to New York so it was nice to have a tour of Time Square. DEFINITELY better than trying to see the sights by myself. The guide was great. She was personal, knowledgeable and engaging. We've decided we'll go again if we come back to New York.
Enjoyable tour

5.00My family and I have been to New York a few times but we've never been to a guided tour. We normally like to roam on our own but this time we decided to take a tour. I am so glad we did. The tour was fun and we learned a lot of interesting things. I want to list some of them but I don't want to ruin it for other people. Our guide Sia was very knowledgeable about Times Square and introduced us to many things that were not in our Times Square research. Would definitely recommend.
