I’ve done 2 different tours with Laurene and they’ve been a delight! Whenever I have friends visiting from France, I can’t wait to have them see the city through the eyes and stories of Laurene. As an immigrant in NY who’s been here for 13 years, it’s as enjoyable as for tourist friends! Each tour makes me love the city even more. And notice and understand places I took for granted.
