Art-full Discovery Walks
Our Art-full Discovery walks are designed to provide attendees with a deep dive into the art and culture of a particular NYC neighborhood and are a great way to bring together friends, colleagues or clients to experience the city in a new and different way!
Rather than focusing solely on street art, galleries, food or history as many other tours do, we look at a neighborhood from a holistic perspective, focusing on the aspects that make it unique. More than a lecture or lesson, our walks are designed to help attendees discover something new about the neighborhood, taking the time to notice small details they may have otherwise overlooked.
Visitors to the city will be introduced to the essence of the neighborhood, while long-time New Yorkers will see and experience it anew. Tours are usually 2.5-3 hours in length and can be customized to a group’s area of interest. We are committed to showcasing female-run businesses and female artists whenever possible.*
They are great for:
Birthdays & anniversaries
Bachelorette parties
Entertaining & impressing out of town guest or clients
Daytime double date (minimum of 4 guests)
Pricing: $50/person with a minimum of 4 guests; $40/person for 8 or more guests

Good Vibes on the Lower East Side
This is the original - the one that inspired all the rest! The Lower East Side is truly one of the most unique areas of NYC, with a long and fascinating history of art and entrepreneurship. This tour focuses on the themes of change and diversity, which are ever-present here. Features stops at 3-4 galleries, a sample of the best sweet treats the neighborhood has to offer and plenty of street art sightings.
Art-full Art & Architecture Walk of Chelsea & the Meatpacking
Chelsea has long been the center of the contemporary art scene in NYC, and we will experience a sampling of the best gallery shows on tap, with a focus on female artists and female-run galleries. We will also explore the ever-evolving Meatpacking District and learn about its storied past, sampling some of the delicacies it has to offer and learning more about its booming architectural scene.
Downtown Discovery Walk of Nolita, SoHo & TriBeCa
While SoHo and TriBeCa may be some of the most expensive and fashionable neighborhoods in the city today, they weren’t always quite so desirable. We will look at their evolution and experience some of the best art, food and culture they each have to offer.
Art, History & Waterfront Views in DUMBO
This walk focuses on DUMBO's cutting edge contemporary galleries and street art scene, along with an exclusive private studio visit with a local artist. You will experience some of the most beautiful waterfront views of Manhattan while you learn more about how this fascinating neighborhood has grown and changed over time.
