Girls Day Out

Do you know or love a little girl just dying to feel like a grownup in her dream city? Treat her to a day filled with magical moments, where she and her friends will see famous film spots, visit unique boutiques, discover secret hideaways and dine at restaurants fit for a queen. A birthday party is fun for an hour but a day out in New York City is something to be remembered FOREVER! She will be thanking you for the magic she’s been dreaming of. Safe, exciting and unlike any other, this adventure will be tailored to specific interests, tastes and WOW moments. Let’s get started!

Neighborhood Walks

There are 53 neighborhoods in Manhattan alone, each with its own personality. Don’t just come to New York and see the typical tourist sites, experience classic neighborhoods and their local characters for the true New York experience. To name a few we have the unique charm of the Upper West Side, the punk vibe of the East Village, the Cast Iron fashion district of Soho and the quaint tree lined streets of Greenwich Village. Go beyond Times Square and join me for an adventurous walk. Don’t just see New York, LIVE it!

Children’s Central Park Adventure Tour

The magical Central Park awaits, let’s get your children out and exploring! This adventure is a quintessential mix of education, outdoor activity and fun all bundled into a perfect field trip. Disconnect and let’s start creating new memories! Scavenger hunts, dance parties, rock climbing, and so much more. Inspiring lessons that will get your kids out of zoom and into the world around them.

Live Like a New Yorker For A Day

Always wondered what it’s like to be a real New Yorker? Come with me! Born and raised in New York, I am out exploring every day. Let me take you on a typical adventure of a Local. I will take you by the hand from the moment you step into the city and show you New York like you’ve never imagined, all while feeling safe and secure with your new Local Friend.

Spontaneity In The City

Spontaneity is a magical thing and there’s nothing more spontaneous than a surprise adventure! Be open to the unknown and join me for a mystery experience that feels more like a ride than a tour. Without knowing where we will go next, the element of surprise will keep you on your toes and in the moment with every twist and turn.

Secrets Of Central Park

There’s a reason Central Park isn’t just a famous landmark of the city, but the setting of hundreds of brilliant stories, movies, works of art, poems, and more. This gorgeous giant (all 843 acres of it!) sparks creativity and inspiration with every falling leaf. Together let’s explore the history, mystery, and magic of the heart of Manhattan.

New To The Neighborhood

Welcome to the neighborhood, let me show you around! I can fill you in on everything you need to know including the cafe with the strongest WiFi, the quietest reading nook, the bar around the corner with the nicest bartender and where to go to make your newest friends. Join me for a day that will help you find your new special spots in your new special neighborhood.

Night Out With a New Yorker

Let me custom design and accompany you on your next night out in Manhattan! You name the interest and I will tailor an experience that will have us hopping around to some of the coolest spots in the city. This could range from 80’s dancing to a burlesque show to a speakeasy to a sunset cruise. I can recommend the best table, the newest lineup of live music and an infinite list of best kept secrets for you and your friends to enjoy. All you need to do is figure out what to wear!

We had a wonderful trip to NYC with our three children this past week. Christine was absolutely amazing, showing us all around the city. The personalized experience was perfect and included everything we could have imagined and more!!! Thank you!

Carol Hustedde

What a great afternoon and evening we had with Christine! We felt like she was our best friend the moment we met her. She knows how to get around quickly. She was personable, courteous and helpful. Always being aware of her surroundings, she made us feel safe. I recommend her to be your guide whether your first time or anytime you are visiting New York City. Christine is FUN and very very KNOWLEDGABLE of New York City.

NYC Christine prepared a great itinerary for my husband, son and myself for a long weekend in NYC. She listened very carefully to all our ideas, wishes and desires and included something for everyone. From self guided walks and market visits, restaurants, shows and museums to personally guided days and evenings with Christine, our time was activity packed and full of unique experiences. A midnight walk through Central Park enjoying the quiet in a city that does not sleep was just one of my favorites. With Christine’s fun and refreshing personality we enjoyed walks through neighbourhoods, food tastings and hidden gems of historic buildings during our sightseeing tour. She is enthusiastic, highly motivated and accommodating, yet also easy going when showing us her city. Her love and passion for NYC is contagious and elevates the experience and excitement for the city. We left NYC with sore feet and a happy feeling of satisfaction for having taken a bite out of the big apple while we were there.

Sylvia Plath’s Oven

My partner and I just visited NYC for the first time and we hired Christine as our guide. She spent two days showing us her city. She taught us how to navigate, etiquette, and safety tips. Christine took our list of things we wanted to do and see and organized it so that way we weren’t running back and forth all over the city. She showed us her favorite spots, was friendly, fun, and knowledgeable. Another awesome thing Christine did was take photos and videos of everything so that we could be present but still have memories. I would recommend her to anyone. If you want to feel like you’re visiting a friend in New York who is showing you around then Just Ask Christine!

Thank you Christine for making our trip to NYC so memorable! My granddaughter's 12th birthday was like a dream come true. We learned so much about the city and the beauty we did not experience on a previous trip. It was awesome letting you guide and let me enjoy sightseeing without worry or planning! I highly recommend booking a tour with Christine and cannot wait until our next visit!

beth hermann

I did an Upper East Side tour and it was so great. Christine did an amazing job highlighting the beauty of the neighborhood. I have lived here for a year so far and never even noticed the beautiful buildings she pointed out, or history behind different streets, signs, and buildings. Would definitely recommend to friends and family!!!

Wendy Kirkpatrick

We have the most beautiful memories from our visit to Central Park thanks to Christine and Leah! We spent 4 fun filled days on an all girls, multigenerational trip to NYC. With Christine guiding us, we got to learn about the park, connect with locals and just have a blast. It was the most cherished and memorable part of our visit. So grateful!

Christopher Eden

Christine is a born-and-bred New Yorker and her knowledge of the city it encyclopaedic. We had a fantastic day with her and cannot imagine that there is a better or more affable guide in NYC. She absolutely made our stay and pointed out many additional places and restaurants to visit.

Margarita DeLashmit

Christine and her staff were so good!! I'm sorry I can't remember who took us to the financial district, but she was great! Then the next morning Christine took us to Central Park. You may think you can just figure it out, but Christine showed us so much in our limited time!
