"The hostory is really unbelievable and the storytelling is so good. I literally want to go on it again. THE FAQ! Haha!" - Emily
"The best tour I have ever taken! I am a native New Yorker and was completely taken aback at how much I did not know about the History of this great city. Going through the West Village where I often hung out in the 90’s and realizing there were whole other lifetimes I knew nothing about was fascinating. Andrew was so engaging and an incredible story teller, the historical facts he included were nothing like I ever heard on a tour. I cannot imagine the amount of research it must have taken to put together. I would highly recommend this tour for natives and tourists alike. Thank you Andrew for enlightening me" - Maggie
"Had so much fun going to this tour with friends! The guide is super knowledgeable, well prepared, and passionate about the work he does. Whether you're a history nerd or just looking for a way to spend an afternoon in the city, this is the perfect tour to go on. There's something so exciting about not just learning about history but seeing the actual places events happened/people lived, and the tour guide really made history come alive on this tour. Cannot recommend enough!" - Mian

About Epic Walking Tours
My name is Andrew, and I will be your tour guide. Born and raised in New York, I was always fascinated by the city’s history and inspired by the trailblazers who took a stand for issues that mattered to them. Their courage, creativity, and persistence inspired my volunteer and nonprofit work with prison inmates, people of color, children, women, immigrants, the houseless, and animals. It also led me to become a writer, researcher, and historian. I created these tours to share incredible stories about people and events, hoping they inspire you, too.
I have a bachelor’s degree in Political Science and a master’s and doctorate in Educational Leadership. I am a registered and licensed New York City tour guide with a star rating from the NYC Department of Consumer Affairs for ranking in the top tier of tour guides for my knowledge of New York City’s history.
