Empire Premier Walking Tours

We recommend wearing comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing and sturdy walking shoes, as New York City is best explored on foot. Be sure to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen on sunny days, and a light jacket or umbrella if rain is expected. It's also a great idea to bring a bottle of water to stay hydrated!

Our walking tours generally last between 2 to 3 hours, depending on the tour you choose. We’ll make sure to keep a relaxed pace, with plenty of stops along the way for sightseeing, photos, and to answer any questions you might have. The length is also adjusted to ensure you’re comfortable and able to enjoy everything at your own pace.

Yes, we highly recommend booking your tour in advance to ensure your spot, especially during peak seasons or holidays when tours can fill up quickly. You can easily reserve your spot through our website or by calling our office.

We strive to make our tours accessible for everyone. While most of our tours are wheelchair-friendly, some routes may include areas with uneven sidewalks or stairs. If you or someone in your group requires wheelchair access, please contact us in advance, and we will do our best to accommodate you or recommend an alternative route.

We walk rain or shine! If the weather looks unfavorable, we’ll still go ahead with the tour, so please come prepared. In case of severe weather conditions like thunderstorms or extreme cold, we may adjust or reschedule the tour for your safety and comfort. If this happens, we’ll notify you in advance and offer options to reschedule or refund your booking.
