Praise for our private tours:

“We arranged a private walking tour of the Lower East Side, with a focus on Jewish immigrant history. Mike Morgenthal was knowledgeable and friendly. We are from NYC and learned a lot. We definitely recommend him and Bowery Boys for private tours. Craig Nelson made the booking process very easy.”
