A Note on Weekend Tours
If you book a weekend tour, you’ll be guided by my business partner, Bernice. She grew up with her own ties to the neighborhood and has amazing stories to share.
Bernice brings a personal touch, weaving in memories and insights that give you a different but equally rich perspective on the community. Guests always love her warmth, humor, and the way she makes history feel alive.
Whether you’re with me during the week or with Bernice on weekends, you’ll get the same care, passion, and authentic storytelling. We work closely together to make sure every tour feels special.
I’m Roger, founder of tour company which offers an amazing experience in Chinatown. I am a 6-time Emmy Award-winning producer. Raised in Manhattan’s Chinatown, I lead immersive experiences like the Chinatown Underworld Experience and The Flavors of Asia, revealing the hidden stories, culture, and cuisine of this historic NYC neighborhood. My tours are provided by myself and occasionally by my best fellow guide Bernice.
