GANYC Certified Guide

Stan O'Connor

About:

Hi, I’ve been licensed in New York City for over 25 years. I work with school groups, seniors, organizations, travel agents and coach companies from all over. With interest in history, architecture, geology, wildlife (important at our parks and beaches) and the myriad of cultures here in New York City. I enjoy those teachable ‘aha' moments when the customer leaps to a fuller understanding of the experience they’re having.

I'm versatile: I do tours via boat, coach, on foot and by subway train. I offer a tour based on the hit TV show The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. It takes you to all the places she visits in Greenwich Village. Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJQtj48uKT4 (and please subscribe).

Special Tours:

Custom tours that suit your particular needs.

Also several walking tours that begin and end on separate islands. We go from one to another via ferry boats! A Black History tour from Brooklyn to Manhattan. 

Empire State Building to DUMBO. 

Over the historic Brooklyn Bridge, and your choice of returning by ferry and (A) walking Wall Street, or (B) visiting DUMBO, (C) walking through Brooklyn Heights or (D) ending at a Brooklyn Heights pizzeria.

In the Covid era we learned not to congregate in crowds. Isle Of New York offers tours of northern Manhattan that give you majestic Hudson River valley views, far from the madding crowd.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0H18axa-U18&t=2s 

Like to see the sunset in New York? Several of these tours can be scheduled to end at sunset. Please ask!
