As far as tours are concerned, it doesn't get more genuine than Big Apple Greeters. The company is a not-for-profit organization staffed only by volunteers who enjoy taking visitors on in-depth tours throughout New York City. Big Apple Greeters guides visitors far beyond the traditional landmarks of the city. The organization promotes the hidden gems of the city, perhaps involving lesser-known sights and attractions, small residential areas, historical sites, restaurants, flea markets, street fairs and festivals, enticing shops, and more.
Knowledgeable and enthusiastic volunteers, known as 'Greeters,' promote New York's small-town charm by accompanying visitors on two-to-four-hour journeys in any of the five boroughs, highlighting New York's rich and remarkable cultural and ethnic diversity. The intent of Big Apple Tours is to show visitors what it is like to be a native New Yorker.
Big Apple Greeter service is not a group tour. Their visitors are usually individuals, two to six friends traveling together, or a family. Big Apple Greeter welcomes all visitors regardless of race, gender, religion, nationality, age, sexual preference, or disability. One last thing: tips aren't allowed!
