An incredibly interesting and enjoyable walking tour! Greg guided us to some captivating spots and shared fascinating anecdotes about music history. I especially loved the stories about artists from the 50s, 60s, and 70s. He took my girlfriend and me around Greenwich Village for about 2.5 hours, introducing us to fantastic restaurants and coffee shops along the way. Very tasty italian pastries, iconic NYC pizza, out of this world Cortado coffee! I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 because his devices (tablet, phone, bluetooth speaker) could have been better organized, making it easier for him to access the music and pictures he wanted to show us. He also gave us great tips regarding the city in general. E.g. regarding transportation, what music clubs or pubs to visit.

The music Greg share as we walked and listened to music. The Billy Holiday story and Bob Dylan and The Stonewall Inn.

(The dropdown requires selecting one of the food tours, but this review is for a special tour Greg Marro arranged for a group of college students to cover the important social and historical issues evident in a tour of the West, Greenwich and East Villages.) Each semester I arrange for some of my university students to attend an educational tour of the West Village with Greg Walks NYC. Mr. Marro does a tremendous job of taking social issues and making them come alive. This spring, he once again guided students from the site of the Stonewall Riots to the former location of Café Society, an integrated nightclub where Billie Holliday first performed "Strange Fruit, to the Triangle Shirt Factory memorial and many other important historical stops in between. With his talent for storytelling and vast information about and familiarity with the area, Greg dazzled the students. They really did not want the night to end. I offer his tour my highest praise and recommendation. It's an educational opportunity that changes lives. I know because I've seen it happen with my students.

I gave the tour 4 out of 5. We actually did not take the tour, but I was forced to give a rating to make comments. Greg cancelled the tour at 1:30 when it was supposed to start at 2:30 because it was raining. I told him we were willing to bring raincoats and umbrellas, and gut it out, but he was unwilling to make a go of it. We have taken many outdoor tours in the rain all over the world. My biggest problem with the cancellation was that it was too late to book any other tour for the Saturday afternoon we had in NYC. To be fair, Greg did issue a prompt refund.

I'm a college adjunct at the University of Texas at Austin's NYC campus and teach a course about social issues in advertising and public relations. As part of the learning experience, I wanted to give students a field trip. After contacting Greg Marro, I knew that I'd made the perfect selection of a guide. He asked for the syllabus and worked to make sure the tour was educational, relevant to the course subject matter -- and yet still fun. Greg more than delivered. He beautifully wove the academic and interesting together. My students loved the experience -- Greg is a riveting storyteller. I'll definitely use Greg Walks NYC for future semesters!

Wow! What a fabulous tour and and even more fabulous tour guide! Greg treated my class to a free tour. It was really cool to hear about all the Bob Dylan sights. He knows what he’s talking about!

Like literally wow. Greg was so knowledgeable and funny. I have never met anyone as passionate as him. Definitely would go on another tour!

I'm a college adjunct at the University of Texas at Austin's NYC campus and teach a course about urban communication. As part of the learning experience, I wanted to give students a field trip. After contacting Greg Marro, I knew that I'd made the perfect selection of a guide. He asked for the syllabus and worked to make sure the tour was educational, relevant to the course subject matter -- and yet still fun. Greg more than delivered. He wove the idea of both musical spaces as a place for urban communication -- but also, through family stories and historical sites, stressed the importance of dialogue over coffee. It was genius, really. The students loved the tour -- Greg is a riveting storyteller. I'll definitely use Greg Walks NYC for future semesters!

I didn't know much about music before going on this tour, but I want to learn more about it and listen to more music after going on the tour! Even though I didn't know much, every piece of information was still interesting and so fun.

Greg is simply fantastic! I reached out regarding the music and food tour for a day he typically didn't offer tours, and he added one to the roster just for our group. His tour was one of the highlights of our trip - delicious food and so much great information and history. He was also very patient and kind with my senior mother who was moving slowly. Greg is great and I would recommend his tours to anyone!
