NYC Subway Art Tour NY 1 NEWS Interview
|
This lively walking AND subway riding tour visits over a dozen subway stations to experience a selection of these striking often whimsical works that go largely unnoticed by the general public. We'll also cross The Manhattan Bridge for a spectacular aerial view of the magnificent Lower Manhattan skyline as we head to Brooklyn and then conclude in Times Square.
Along the way you'll learn about and become expert at navigating the (in)famous NYC subway system. There's also the invaluable opportunity to confer about your other sightseeing plans with the acclaimed Bronx born, vastly experienced licensed NYC tour guide, Darryl Reilly--me.
Conducting hop on off tours on the celebrated Grayline red double decker buses was the start of my guiding career. For The League of American Theaters and Producers I developed and led the heralded Broadway Open House Tour transporting visitors through New York's theater district and into several theaters holding forth on the history and present of Broadway. For NYCVP I've regularly taken groups through Lower Manhattan, to The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island as well as a variety of personalized private tours for small groups.
