About Prettygirl City Tours

Featured

The only jogging tour in New York City, Prettygirl City Tours is an active way to experience the Big Apple! Diligently-researched descriptions, friendly guides, and a stepped-up pace make this the most fun you’ve had on a tour.

Our tours aren’t just about historical names and dates. We know all about art, culture, and the stories behind the places you’ll see with us. Prettygirl guides take pride in constantly researching and updating their tours.

You haven’t heard of a jogging tour before? It’s something like a walking tour, but a little faster. We aren’t out to win any races, but our tours are meant to be taken in sneakers. Picking up the pace lets us cover more ground! We limit group size so that everyone can hear what’s going on and stay challenged, and no one is left behind.

Some routes are better suited to a traditional walking pace- so make sure to check the tour description for details.

Prettygirl City Tours are $18 per person. Groups of five or more are $15 per person. Tasting tours are priced differently- check the description for details. Pay conveniently with PayPal at the time of your reservation.

“Art of Greenwich Village” Tour Details

A favorite neighborhood of artists, musicians, and bohemians, Greenwich Village has reformed itself in almost every decade of the last century. In large part because of the progressive attitudes of its residents, many major political, social, and cultural movements have taken life and thrived in this tiny hamlet. On this tour we will explore the galleries and shops, the music, the history, the theaters, and most importantly the art of this influential and avante-garde gem.

Jogging and walking. Approximately 1.5 hours. No severe changes in altitude. Meets at Washington Square North and 6th Ave.

“Real New York” Tour Details

On this tour, you’ll get a real idea of what New York is like. We’ll begin in Times Square and quickly branch into less famous areas that you’ll be thrilled you found! You’ll see the monuments of Columbus Circle, the high-art of Lincoln Center, the true New York City neighborhood of the Upper West Side, and the leafy expanse of Central Park before we take a slalom course down Fifth Avenue, with its world-class shopping and architecture. We’ll slow down to take a better look at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, world- famous Rockefeller Center, and the New York Public Library. This tour will take you to the places you’ve always wanted to see, and might make you question your notions of New York and the people who live here.

Available jogging and walking. Approximately 2 hours. No severe changes in altitude. Begins at 46th St. and Broadway in front of the American Eagle store.
