About Tour Guide Gordon P.

Hi I'm Gordon, a third generation New Yorker.

I've always felt most at home in jazz joints. That's where my people are - the players and the fans; they've inspired me my whole working life:

- I've owned a popular jazz club in Harlem

- Managed top musicians

- Had my jazz photos and articles in major publications

- Been awarded a Proclamation from New York State

For over 25 years, I've been designing and leading immersive jazz crawls through NY's underground scene as the owner of Big Apple Jazz Tours.

We are ranked

# 1 in Nightlife in New York City.

Important

With advance booking of over 2 weeks, I can usually be free anytime.

"New York City isn't just where I live—it's who I am. I'm a fourth-generation New Yorker with a passion for helping visitors connect with the city's incredible energy, stories, and hidden gems." My deep-rooted love for NYC—its streets, stories, and spirit—shines through every tour I lead. Drawing on my extensive and in-depth knowledge of New York's history, architecture, and culture, I offer visitors a local perspective that brings the city to life. Each tour with me is entirely personalized and thoughtfully curated to match your interests and pace. This means you'll get to see the city in a way that's uniquely yours, with engaging storytelling and insider insights. Fred will create an unforgettable experience for you, tailored to your preferences. My goal is simple: to help every visitor not just see New York, but to experience it, to fall in love with it as deeply as I have, and to leave you with lasting memories of your time spent in this extraordinary city I call home.

I am a New York City tour guide and have been doing bus tours for 14 years and walking tours for eight. I can easily do a standard tour on, say, Central Park, Greenwich Village, or the World Trade Center but I offer a general tour with many popular places in New York. I also have my own niche tour of "Titanic Sites in New York City". I like tour-guiding in the city because I am also a tourist and I like to feel the vicarious thrill of visitors. Being a tour-guide AND a tourist, I have traveled to Nova Scotia, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Anchorage, Cleveland, Niagara Falls, Washington DC, London, Liverpool, Belfast, Bangkok, Singapore, Philippines, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Fukuoka, Yokohama, Nara, Shizuoka, Hiroshima, Miyajima Island, Mt. Kosaya, Mt. Fuji and many other places.
