The Lower East Side is the countries
original "melting pot", setting the template for
modern-day, multi-ethnic, working-class America, and giving
birth to a wide variety of social, political, and cultural
movements which continue to influence culture around the
globe.

"So exiting! I literally traced the
foot steps of Lucky Luciano and all the greats -- and heard the
colorful stories behind them. It was truly facinating!"
-Alan Corvin, Washington
"Every American owes it to themself
to take this tour... (our guide) passionately detailed the birth
of a modern nation... It was incredible story-telling; thank you!"
-Susan Bishop, TX
"Whether you're into punk rock or the
immigrant history of the Lower East Side, (this tour) offers a wealth
of insight into the history and culture of this diverse New York
City neighborhood."
-About.com review
"Our guide was a 4th generation Lower
East Sider. This is the most authentic tour in NYC. Treat yourself
to this tour if you want more than someone reading to you from a
script!"
- Anne G., Boston, MA
"This was really enjoyable. I have lived
here for over 20 years and it turns out I didn't know anything about
my own neighborhood before this tour..."
-Stephen L., East Village, NY
"All the legendary
bad guys did time on the Lower East Side: Lucky Luciano, Al Capone,
Bugsy Siegel. Instead of trying to figure them out with movies-on-demand
and pulp bios, follow in their footsteps, literally."
-Staten Island Advance
"This tour covers a lot of ground—more
than 300 years’ worth—even if it only spans about four
city blocks. Along the way, fourth-generation East Villager Eric
Ferrara explains how, generations ago, anything below 14th Street
was considered the Lower East Side, and makes a convincing case
that the E-Vill, once the stomping grounds of the Astors, is returning
to its aristocratic heyday."
