FAQ

True Crime Tour NYC runs every FRI/SAT/SUN/TUE afternoon starting at 2pm. The tour lasts for approximately 3 hours.

The tour starts on the NE corner of 1st Avenue and E. 83rd Street on the Upper East Side of Manhattan – in front of Big John’s Moving, 1602 1st Avenue – please meet your tour guide there. The nearest subway is the Q train to 86th Street. The tour ends on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

So that each guest can have the best experience and clearly hear everything that the tour guide is saying, we limit the size of each tour group to 15 people. We truly want each guest to feel that they had a great experience!

We will not be taking the subway or bus – the tour is entirely a walking tour and it’s entirely outdoors. You do not need a MetroCard.
We do not offer refunds – though if you contact us it might be possible to move your tour tickets to a later date – we will do our best to accommodate your move request. The tour runs rain or shine – please bring an umbrella if the day looks cloudy. 

Whatever you like – but please keep in mind that it’s often significantly cooler around 5pm when the tour ends than it is at the 2pm start.

While we never dwell on the gory or distressing aspects of the crimes, True Crime Tour NYC does contain graphic descriptions and details that some people may find upsetting. Parental guidance is suggested.

There are no public toilets along the route – however we are happy to stop the tour briefly if any guests need to dash into a restaurant or pub to use their toilet. There are no stops for food or drinks. For the benefit of all guests, please plan to eat something and use the toilet prior to starting the tour.
