Broadway & Times Square Walking Tour
Walk in the footsteps of the stars and lift the curtain on two of New York City's glittering districts – Broadway and Times Square.
What you'll do
Your tour guide, an experienced actor and director (who you will find carrying an orange flag), will give you the Broadway experience from an insider's point of view. Learn about the greats like Ethel Barrymore, Judy Garland, Humphrey Bogart, and Julie Andrews, who have trodden the boards and taken a bow on stage. You’ll also discover more about the area itself and how it rose from its humble beginnings as a horse-trading district to the shining star it is today.
The Broadway Walking Tour highlights
Feel the excitement of catching a ‘big break’ as your guide fills you in on what it takes to make it in the theater business.
Visit legendary Broadway locations, including Sardi’s, Shubert Alley, and the Edison Hotel.
Get chills from stories about the ghosts that still haunt the theater boards, including a real-life “West Side Story” that took place in Hell’s Kitchen.
Plenty of showbiz gossip, trivia, and history.
