Description

Step into the heart of bohemian New York on The Greenwich Village Walking Tour, a journey through winding streets rich with rebellion, artistry, and pop culture. Begin at the site of the legendary Hangman’s Elm and stroll through Washington Square Park beneath its iconic Arch. Wander down MacDougal Street to Café Wha?, where music legends once launched their careers, and explore Minetta Lane and Father Demo Square.

Discover the charm of Bleecker Street, the historic Cherry Lane Theatre, and picturesque Leroy Street. Snap a photo at 75½ Bedford Street—one of the city’s narrowest homes—and visit the famous “Friends” apartment building. Stand at the Stonewall Inn, birthplace of the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement, and explore charming Gay Street.

Along the way, see locations from Serpico, I Am Legend, August Rush, and more. This tour brings Greenwich Village’s history, culture, and cinematic magic to life.
