I have lived in Manhattan for over 43 years but grew up across the Hudson River in New Jersey. I know New York as the Center of the World. I have been a licensed New York City Sightseeing Guide for more than 20 years, and am now licensed in Washington D.C. as well. I am a former teacher and corporate salesperson and have run the New York Marathon six times so I have enjoyed New York to the max.

I really enjoyed my walk with Bill. I just soaked up the history and culture that seems to drip from each and every building in the area. I would recommend without hesitation.
