“A life long New Yorker, Hank shows you all the ins and outs of a neighborhood and makes you feel like you’ve discovered a new city. Each tour draws you into an area using history, antidotes & highlights, making it yours. Hank’s tours are pure magic.”
— Aly B.
“Hank Orenstein has brought so many wonderful new sections of NYC into my life…places, on my own, I would never know existed.. One place that stands out is our walk around Harlem, and actually going into the famed APOLLO Theatre, a place I only heard about but never considered going to… Being on one of Hanks walks made the Apollo possible. There are too many great walks by Hank to be able to share them here but I have to say Hank certainly makes the city come alive for me, and for so many others.. We have the privilege to learn about NYC from him… and on a side note.. said by many Hank also shines with his super personality… Hank is the best.

One of the best, certainly surprising features of Hank’s Tours has been how he integrates fascinating historical and thematic references into the natural beauty of the neighborhoods he leads us through. The thrill of learning such fun facts and stories is always competing with our need to take lots of photos, or just stand in awe before some vista or statue! ” JB
“Hank’s walking tours have become an important part of my NYC experience year round. I enjoy taking photos of each new adventure and share with my family and friends on Facebook…they can’t wait to see what tour I’ve been on. Hank is a NYC treasure, professional and informative!” Kerri A.
