May I introduce myself? I am a licensed professional New York City tour guide, who would like to offer something special to visitors coming to New York.

I want to show you New York City with its diversity, not out of the window of a Sightseeing bus, but rather point out to you the people and neighborhoods, the buildings: the essence of the city: Hautnah in German or Up-close in English

Since I myself am, like so many other New Yorkers, an immigrant and as such a great fan of my home town of choice, I would like to share with you the encounters, take you behind the scenes, and personalize your experience in the "Big Apple."
