About this activity
We start at the iconic Washington Square Park, epicenter of this massive historic district. Then we begin our exploration of Greenwich Village, a neighborhood settled in the early 1800s, and once the outer-suburbs of New York for the wealthy elite before eventually evolving into the heart of the progressive, bohemian west village.
See the neighborhood's key landmarks, famous and less so, as well as the clubs that launched the careers of Bob Dylan and countless others. But the real highlight of this tour for many are the quiet, winding streets of this gorgeous neighborhood. You will fall in love with its old townhouses and courtyards.
Next, we enter the Meatpacking District, a former industrial hub that helped change and grow the city of New York. You'll see the popular Chelsea Market, old cobblestone streets, and gorgeous old industrial buildings.
Finally, we visit the stunning High Line, a former freight rail converted into a modern, 21st-century park in the sky. This park is a marvel of urban revival and filled with lots of art. It is quickly becoming one of NYC's most popular attractions. It is here that the tour ends and your own journey can continue.
The tour will end near Chelsea Market.
