About me:
From Brittany to New York via Southeast Asia: I'm Guillaume, your passionate live guide to the Big Apple. After roaming the streets of Hong Kong and enjoying Balinese life for several years, it was in the creative buzz of Manhattan that I found my home base.
With three years of experience as a certified French live guide at an agency in New York, I decided to become a freelance live guide.
As a true urban art hunter, I explore the city's areas daily to find the latest street art creations and share my discoveries. This passion for street art blends with my love of local gastronomy, making each visit a unique experience that awakens both the eyes and the taste buds.
My personalised approach and intimate knowledge of New York, acquired over the years, guarantee you an authentic exploration of the city, far from the traditional tourist trails.
From a monumental mural in Bushwick to the legendary pastrami of the Lower East Side, I'll introduce you to my New York, the one known to locals and insiders.
