Free Tour Iconic Neighborhoods: Tribeca, Soho & Nolita
Overview
Our Neighborhood Exploration:
Tribeca: We begin in what was once the city’s industrial dairy and textile hub. Today, it is Manhattan’s most exclusive zip code, famous for its grand cobblestone streets, celebrity residents, and ultra-chic loft living.
Soho: Discover the world’s largest collection of cast-iron architecture. We’ll trace its transformation from a gritty 1980s artist's colony into a global destination for high-end fashion and luxury boutiques.
Nolita: We conclude in "North of Little Italy." This charming enclave holds stories of mob legends, the city’s only basilica, and a vibrant culinary scene. We’ll even stop by the "Little Cupcake Bakeshop" for a taste of the best sweets in the city.
Beyond the landmarks, I’ll share personal anecdotes and "insider" advice on navigating the subway, finding the best nightlife, and understanding the unique rhythm of New York life. It’s a fun, fast-paced, and authentic look at the city I love.
This activity includes:
- The Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral
- Canal St
- Jenga Tower

Our Guides
On arrival
I will meet you in Tribeca Park. Take the A, C, or E trains to Canal St, and the meeting point is about a 2-minute walk away. You can also take the 1 Train to Canal, and it will be about a 4-minute walk. There are MANY little mini-parks in this area. You are looking for a small park called "Tribeca Park" specifically. It is bounded by Beach St., Walker St., 6th Ave, and W. Broadway. Look for the lady with long platinum hair and the red flag.
Things to note
The nearest restrooms are in the Poke Bowl at Canal and 6th Ave, although they may want you to buy something. There is also the Soho Grand Hotel on West Broadway, on the 2nd floor.
