Overview

Created by renowned Italian author Andrea Careri, a bestselling writer on New York and American pop culture, this tour honors the gritty, electrifying New York of the ‘90s—the golden era of hip-hop, the Yankees, the Knicks, iconic films, and legendary crime stories.

Step into the past as we explore the city’s most dangerous neighborhoods from the ‘90s, still pulsing with raw energy today. From the rise of legendary gangs to the golden age of hip-hop, we uncover untold histories, murals, and local spots that shaped the city’s culture.

Starting in Hell’s Kitchen, we’ll visit the Bronx, Harlem, and Brooklyn. Explore Mike Tyson’s birthplace, Notorious B.I.G.’s streets, Spike Lee’s production company, and iconic landmarks like Yankee Stadium, the Joker Stairs, and the Apollo Theater.

Exclusive access to hidden gems, like a legendary coffee shop and a barbershop frequented by stars, brings you closer to real New York. Choose the original—discover the real New York with expert guides.

  • Hell's Kitchen
    We kick off the journey in Hell’s Kitchen, made famous by Daredevil and Kingpin. This is where urban legends come alive, in a neighborhood where crime and vigilante stories intertwine.
  • Harlem
    From Hell’s Kitchen, we head to Harlem, the epicenter of the Black Renaissance. We’ll stop at a local favorite coffee shop, snap photos of vibrant murals, and visit the iconic Apollo Theater. As we stroll through the African market, we’ll experience the unique flavors, smells, and vibe of this legendary neighborhood.
  • Next, we dive into the real Bronx. A stop at Yankee Stadium gives us a glimpse of the Baseball Hall of Fame, and you can visit the official Yankees store to grab that famous cap. But the highlight? The iconic Joker stairs, where you can take a photo and even recreate the famous dance scene from the movie.
  • Brooklyn
    The tour wraps up in Brooklyn, where Al Capone started his criminal career and where Notorious B.I.G. turned his street life into a rap legend. The tour ends in front of Spike Lee’s studio, a tribute to the director who made Brooklyn famous in films like Crooklyn.
