See New York As It's Residents Do

Every time I visit a major city (Las Vegas, New York, Boston, etc) I always feel like I'm only seeing a fraction of what there is to see. I'm almost positive that's the case. I go and see all the touristy stuff, you know what I'm talking about, the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, the John Hancock building. It's almost as though tourists go to see the venues that real residents don't. I don't really think theres anything wrong with that approach, but I think I may have just discovered a new way.

Usually my best rips to an area have involved visiting family. They know the best restaurants, short cuts, and hidden spots that usually aren't in the travel guide books. But what if you're traveling somewhere you don't have any relatives? Well, on the New York sightseeing tours I just found, you get to hook up (totally PG) with a real New York City family to see the sights that they do. Now you have another choice instead of being packed into a tour bus with 50 strangers going to a preset list of locations. Check out the link, it has all the information you may have questions about and is easy to use.
