Let me help you Jumpstart your visit to NYC!

My goal is to help YOU understand how to navigate this fabulous city so you can get the MOST out of your time here!

What does a Jumpstart include?

  1. PICK you up at your hotel

  2. DEMONSTRATE how to get around via subway, bus or foot including NYC SUBWAY MAPS which I will GIVE YOU!

  3. make SURE you and your group are oriented and have mapped out YOUR AGENDA, so you can have the maximum fun on your trip to the Big Apple!

  4. pick a NEIGHBORHOOD from the list below and I’ll show you around that place OR I’ll design a PERSONALIZED WALK for you from your hotel.

After we spend three hours together you’ll be a confident, educated NYC traveller! My friends used to call me “Annie MTA” because I know how to get you where you want to GO!

Cost: $250 - 3 Hour Tour - maximum 6 people. MetroCard/Transportation not included.
