About me

I’m Robby, a licensed NYC guide who learned the city by surviving its traffic. Before leading tours, I hauled medical supplies as a bike messenger—a job that taught me the fastest routes and exactly where this city hides its weirdest secrets. If you want a polite stroll past pretty buildings, book someone else. We're diving into the bizarre facts, dark humor, and radical uprisings of Chinatown and the LES they don't print in the brochures.
