NYC Skyline Photo Tour

Your walking tour begins on West 42nd Street, where your licensed local guide, "BFAB", will share interesting historical background on this famous thoroughfare and the surrounding neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen. 

Next, BFAB will lead you down West 42nd Street to the 39th Street Ferry Terminal, where you will board a ferry together to Weehawken, New Jersey. During this 8-minute ride, you have the opportunity to take some amazing photos from the middle of the Hudson River. Please note: Round-Trip Ferry tickets are INCLUDED in the price. Your guide will take care of purchasing the ferry tickets for your group in advance of the tour. 

Upon arrival in Weehawken, BFAB will give you a brief presentation on the area before leading you on an almost 1-mile hike to Hamilton Park. During the hike, there will be several opportunities to take photos at ground level before climbing up the steps to Hamilton Park, which sits on a cliff above the river. 

Once you arrive at Hamilton Park, BFAB will share stories about the dueling grounds where Alexander Hamilton met his demise at the hands of Aaron Burr. You will then have some time to enjoy the incredible expansive views of the entire island of Manhattan. BFAB will take photos of you and your group with your own phone or camera so that you can be framed perfectly for your NYC Skyline photo. 

After the photo shoot is finished, BFAB will lead you back down to the ground level where you will have the option to return straightaway to Manhattan, or stay in Weehawken for dinner at your own expense. BFAB will accompany those who choose to take the ferry back to Manhattan right away, and the tour will end at the 39th Street Ferry Terminal.

For those who choose to stay in Weehawken for dinner, BFAB can assist with making recommendations and reservations for your group at one of the riverside restaurants. Participants who stay for dinner in Weehawken will make their way back to Manhattan unaccompanied on the ferry of their choosing.
