New York Walking Tours
New York is a walker's town (maybe, that's why New Yorkers live 6 months longer than the USA average)! Fifty-four percent (54%) of those living in New York City lives in a household without an automobile. The percentage increases to 74% for residents living in Manhattan. Manhattan is the borough where tourists usually spend all of their time when visiting New York. A vehicle in New York City is an expensive inconvenience. It is not uncommon to see automobile parking spaces for rent (when available) of well over $400 per month. Insurance is regularly one-half that amount each month, provided the driver has a good driving record. And gasoline? Among the most expensive in the country. This is all a lot of money to spend for heavy bumper-to-bumper traffic. No wonder New York is a walking town and the subways run underground. New York walking tours, and particularly those that use public transportation to travel short distances from neighborhood to neighborhood, are based on a model that New Yorkers evolved and have used everyday for over 100 years to get around. In fact, 4 million New Yorkers everyday, young and old, use a combination of walking and subways to navigate the city. It is a great way to really get to know and experience New York on a tour. It is not like a drive-by tour, where if you are sitting on the wrong side of the bus (which you are half the time), you miss sites being seen on the other side
