Are you a little New Yorker? I’m sure you are! You probably rode the subway hundreds of times and know all the tricks on how not to get lost in the maze that are our subway stations. I’m sure you don’t even blink at the super loud sirens of the many ambulances or fire trucks …after all, that’s just our city soundtrack. Or maybe you have never been to New York , but you know “the Big Apple” through movies, cartoons and comics (Spiderman...
And New York is the most beautiful city in the world? It is not far from it. No urban night is like the night there…. Squares af ter squares of flame, set up and cut into the aether. Here is our poetry, for we have pulled down the stars to our will. Ezra Pound
I’m going to show you the real New York – witty, smart, and international – like any metropolis. Tell me this: where in Europe can you find old Hungary, old Russia, old France, old Italy? In Europe you’re trying to copy America, you’re almost American. But here you’ll find Europeans who immigrated a hundred years ago – and we haven’t spoiled them. Oh, Gio! You must see why I love New York. Because the whole...
“New York is a diamond iceberg floating in river water.” Truman Capote
He adored New York City. He idolized it all out of proportion…no, make that: he – he romanticized it all out of proportion. Yeah. To him, no matter what the season was, this was still a town that existed in black and white and pulsated to the great tunes of George Gershwin.’ Woody Allen
“Don’t you love New York in the fall? It makes me want to buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address.” Nora Ephron, from the movie “You’ve Got Mail”
The city seen from the Queensboro Bridge is always the city seen for the first time, in its first wild promise of all the mystery and beauty in the world. F. Scott Fitzgerald

E scopriremo New York...passeggiando
Alessia Nencioni
My name is Alessia Nencioni and I’m a ” True Florentine ” who relocated in New York 15 years ago where I became a New York City Licensed Sightseeing Guide.
One of my greatest pleasures is to show this marvellous city through its more unconventional and uncommon aspects, like only a “insider” can and share all the love I have for this special place with people who visit NY for the first time ( or second…or third…)
Learn MoreThe great energy that I discovered in New York made me love this city so much that I felt the need to discover its more hidden aspects , those that you can’t find reading a traveling guide , but that you can only learn through an “insider”. This is exactly my goal, show you the authentic Big Apple, so that you can feel a little more part of it, more at home and a little less tourists.
It will be my pleasure to design the perfect tour just for you.
Come on! Let’s go!
