Whether you ride it daily or just arrived in New York, you’ve never experienced the subway like this.
Most people treat the New York City subway as a way to get somewhere else. This tour makes it the destination.
Over two hours, you’ll move through active and historic stations with a local expert guide — uncovering the ghost stations that slip past most riders’ windows, the world-class art hiding in plain sight, and the century-old architectural details that daily commuters have tuned out entirely. You’ll ride the 6 train to a place most New Yorkers don’t know exists. You’ll stand in stations that were once the engineering wonders of their age, and hear the stories of the people who built them, fought over them, and occasionally lived in them.
This isn’t a transit lesson. It’s a 2-hour look at the city that exists just underneath the one everyone thinks they know.
