Chinese New Yorker learned a lot

Published on Jan, 2025

I was born and raised on the outskirts of Chinatown. My interests were always dining and food shopping there and I had experienced a lot about Chinatown over my 60 years. I realized that much of the original history was missing. Ramona was a fantastic tour guide! She provided the insights I was missing in a friendly informative way! I would definitely recommend this tour!!!

Worth the time and money.

Published on Jan, 2025

An interesting way to see and learn about New York's Chinatown and the Chinese immigrant history of NY and the USA. Ramona, our guide, was very knowledgeable and her enthusiasm made for a great experience. Be advised that there's a lot of walking and standing but there's a lot to visit. The tour traverses some of Little Italy and we were able to appreciate how much things have changed over time, with Chinatown expanding as Asian immigrants arrived and Little Italy shrinking as Italians moved to more prosperous, less crowded neighborhoods. The visits to the Buddhist and the Taoist temples were particularly interesting, as we had never been in one before. It was my first visit to Chinatown, and I'm glad we took this tour.

Great tour of Chinatown

Published on Apr, 2024

Wonderful guide who gave us an intimate portrait of Chinatown and allowed us to meet people and learn history. It was well paced, not rushed. Will recommend this tour to others.

Dan was the best

Published on May, 2023

I did this tour with Fan as a guide, it was really great! He explained everything so well and had an answer to all my questions. I would certainly advise Dan as a guide since he was so friendly and knowledgable

Insightful and friendly

Published on Feb, 2023

Dan was my guide and he was very insightful about the history and knowledge of the neighbourhood. I went to the Little Italy tour which Dan was also my tour guide, there were some overlaps but he was just as insightful
