"So exiting!
I literally traced the foot steps of Lucky Luciano and
all the greats -- and heard the colorful stories behind
them. It was truly facinating!"
-Alan Corvin, Washington
"Every American owes it
to themself to take this tour... (our guide) passionately
detailed the birth of a modern nation... It was incredible
story-telling; thank you!"
-Susan Bishop, TX
"Whether you're into punk
rock or the immigrant history of the Lower East Side,
(this tour) offers a wealth of insight into the history
and culture of this diverse New York City neighborhood."
-About.com review
"Our guide was a 4th generation
Lower East Sider. This is the most authentic tour in
NYC. Treat yourself to this tour if you want more than
someone reading to you from a script!"
- Anne G., Boston, MA
"This was really enjoyable.
I have lived here for over 20 years and it turns out
I didn't know anything about my own neighborhood before
this tour..."
-Stephen L., East Village, NY
"All
the legendary bad guys did time on the Lower East Side:
Lucky Luciano, Al Capone, Bugsy Siegel. Instead of trying
to figure them out with movies-on-demand and pulp bios,
follow in their footsteps, literally."
-Staten Island Advance
