Do you want an insiders perspective of New York City? Then there is no better way than to take New York City walking tours.

New York City is a city of museums, ancient architecture, galleries, media outlets, big corporate companies, stock exchanges and performance venues. It is not only the most populous city in America, but also one of the most popular cities in the world. Tourism is a major industry, with hundreds and thousands of people visiting the city each year.

Although New York City has the reputation of being the most expensive city in the world, you could enjoy it on a shoestring budget if you have done thorough research and are planning on a long distance walk through the city. A walking tour through the Big Apple is also the best and the most inexpensive ways to find juicy deals on goods.

The best walking tours include going through Chinatown and Little Italy, or going on a popular themed tour such as the Sex and the City, Gangs of New York or Friends tours offered by various tour operators across the city.

You would have to stay overnight in a hotel, allowing you more time to go through the entire city in the next few days. Even today a walking tour through the entire city, from Greenwich to the museums and galleries, would cost almost the same as it would have cost you a few years ago.

Some of the things not to be missed are the evening shows and the famous monuments such as the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building. What more could you ask for?
