The adventure begins at Bowling Green, New York City’s oldest park, with a brief historical overview and an engaging wandering workshop. From this point, the group decides the path, and even the guide is unaware of the final destination. You might find yourself in Chelsea, Harlem, or Marble Hill.

Trace the Hudson River from the bustling downtown skyscrapers to the serene northern hills, observing the connections between neighborhoods, history, and culture.

Licensed guide Dan Flag, who is familiar with every mile of the western route, shares his extensive knowledge of history, culture, and cuisine, guiding the group wherever curiosity takes them. A portion of your ticket contributes to a shared Experience Fund, which covers snacks, museum visits, or interactions with locals.
