My tour will be the best-of-the-best of the old-and-the-new on the West Side of Manhattan with lots of photo ops included.

I include sites that are very new in places that are very old. We will relive the history of the construction of the great piers and the ships they brought to America.

I can also be flexible and, where possible, add a destination - provided it does not require waiting in a long queue.
