Have you had the chance to stroll around Central P Have you had the chance to stroll around Central Park in NYC yet? 😍

This park is enormous! So big, in fact, that’s it’s larger than the country of Monaco 😦

A lot of people choose to rent bikes to get around the park, but if you want to learn some fun facts and the history behind Central Park, a walking tour is the way to go 🚴🏻‍♀️

The Central Park Walking Tour by @manhattanwalkingtour is a unique way to get some background information about some of the park’s main points of interest. The tour is only around 2 hours as well, so you can easily fit it into your schedule 🚶🏼‍♀️

In the springtime, Central Park is stunning with the cherry blossoms in full bloom, making it the perfect time to explore one of New Yotk City’s main attractions 🇺🇸

Have you visited Chinatown in New York City before Have you visited Chinatown in New York City before? 🇺🇸🇨🇳

Chinatown is one of the most fascinating parts of Manhattan, and there’s definitely no shortage of things to eat here! 😆

We joined @ultimatefoodtours for their Chinatown tour (the top rated in NYC!), and we didn’t leave hungry 🥢

During the tour we learned all about the history of Chinatown in NYC while stopping at a few hidden gems along the way for food. It was a great experience because we visited locations we probably wouldn’t have gone inside by ourselves - and all of the food was incredible 🥵

A NYC walking tour about the gangsters and ghosts A NYC walking tour about the gangsters and ghosts of Manhattan?! Of course we had to try it out 😉

Our tour was run by @toursofnewyorkcity and it takes place three times a day, but we opted for the evening tour 🚶‍♀️‍➡️

This fun walking tour in NYC lasts for 2 hours, and during this time you’ll learn all about the most infamous areas of Manhattan, including Chinatown, Little Italy, and The Five Points. These areas were notoriously run by gangsters in the 19th and 20th centuries, and during the tour you get to visit some old crime scenes and hear all about the area’s history 🔫

Let’s not forget the ghosts though! Part of the tour is also centred around ghost sightings, and the background stories are really interesting to learn about 👻

Would you take an evening walking tour in NYC centred around gangsters and ghosts? 🇺🇸

Have you heard of Nolita in New York City before? Have you heard of Nolita in New York City before? 🇺🇸

Nolita stands for “North of Little Italy”, and it eventually emerged in the 1990s as a distinct part of the city 🤩

One of the best ways to explore this unique corner of NYC is by eating your way around it 🍕

The Tasty Global Bites - A Culinary Journey Through Nolita is a fantastic food tour in NYC by @ahoynewyorkfoodtours that includes some standing and some on-the-go food tastings, all while you walk around Nolita (and a tiny part of Little Italy) and learn more about what makes it such a special part of the city 🚶‍♀️‍➡️

It’s definitely a culinary adventure that you should add to your list of things to do in NYC! 🫶🏼
