Hi !

I was born in France and made New York my home a couple of years ago after backpacking over the world for a year. I felt in love with New York in 1995, and recently founded My Special New York, a tour company providing immersive and unique experiences in New York city, from tours for individuals or corporate groups, to tailored services for travel agencies or tour operators in North America.

My goal is to set up insightful, fresh, and unforgettable programs and tours to capture the best of what New York has to offer in terms of energy, excitement, and emotions. I combine my extensive travel experience over the world with a deep, updated knowledge of the city to deliver an intimate experience with a local feel. This is not the usual, academic tour you might have experienced.

You will not only learn about the History and architecture, but about the mindset, the energy and what's behind the scene... in a fun, modern, professional and energizing way. My Special New York is different... because it's not just a job, but a passion.
