Outstanding Walking Tour of Greenwich Village - Andrew is exceptionally knowledgeable about many aspects of The Village, therefore the term "Variety" in the name of the tour. History, landmarks, pop culture, social and political movements and of course, scandals are all a part of this neighborhood, and his love of the area is apparent in his enthusiasm. Friendly, and engaging, willing to answer your questions. Highly recommended.

Amazing walking tour of Greenwich Village - A great, informative walking tour of Greenwich Village. Andrew, the tour guide was knowledgeable and has done his research on the history of the area. A must do tour. Better than the bus tours. You get close and personal with NY history.
