The Essential Central Park Walking Tour

A Walk In The Park/ Central Park Walking Tour

Discover the legends and lore of iconic Central Park – the sprawling masterpiece of American landscape brought to life by it’s visionaries in 1857.

Join us for “A Walk In The Park” as your costumed tour guide unearths the saga of America’s first landscaped public park with intriguing tales of yesteryear. As a character from another era, your guide will introduce you to Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, the creators of this urban treasure. Marvel at the architecture of Bethesda Terrace, be captivated by the poetic Shakespeare’s Statue, and lose yourself in the serenity of The Ramble on this 2.5-hour comprehensive tour.

At the designated Ramble Point you will have the opportunity to leave the tour, visit the MET or just explore around at your own pace, enjoy the activities happening, grab a snack, or relax over coffee before rejoining a later group (about 2-hour interval).
