Description
See New York through the eyes of a New Yorker!
A volunteer Greeter will show you a favorite neighborhood, answer your questions and demonstrate how easy it is to use public transportation.
And it's FREE, too.
Big Apple Greeter is a non-profit organization that matches visitors with friendly and enthusiastic New Yorkers who are happy to share the city they love. A wonderful experience for families, friends and individuals traveling solo, Greeters help travelers feel welcome and get more from their stay in the Big Apple.
Big Apple Greeter’s services are offered FREE OF CHARGE, and there is a NO TIPPING POLICY.
The New Yorkers who serve as Greeters are all volunteers, come from varied backgrounds and can welcome visitors in 22 languages. The office staff, also mostly volunteers, matches Greeters to visitors according to language, neighborhoods requested, and interests, when possible.
Big Apple Greeter welcomes all visitors without regard to race, color, creed, gender, age, sexual orientation, marital status or disability.
