Hi, everyone. I posted this last year but had to cancel my trip...well, it's been rescheduled! I will be visiting NYC from May 20th - 26th and I am trying to find someone to show me around the Bronx (a local preferably).
I have been to NYC twice now, and the last time I came I got to see the Bronx. I really enjoyed the raw vibe and culture of the borough. I saw several "touristy" places in the Bronx (Arthur Ave, Poe's Cottage, Bronx Museum of Arts), while also walking around a good amount. This time I would like more of a day-in-the-life kind of experience.
To specify my request, I am NOT looking for someone to take me to places that can be found on a "The Bronx Top 10 List" or something of the like (please don't take me to the Zoo or the Botanical Garden for example). I want to experience the borough as if I was living there, maybe stopping by your local favorite business(es) or neighborhoods you frequent. If all we do during the whole tour is walk around different neighborhoods of the Bronx, that is OK! There doesn't need to be a 'grand attraction' or anything. Simply experiencing a day-in-your-life and visiting your frequented places is enough for me. The real attraction is discussing your experience in the borough and getting to know the Bronx the way YOU know it.
Please DM me if interested. If you require payment for the tour, just let me know what the cost is in advance so I can ensure it matches my budget. Looking forward to meeting you and seeing the borough through your perspective!
