Thanks for watching and making it into the comments section... god speed. If you are interested in a tour, reach out on IG (tomdnyc). I also run a weekly show in NYC called Let's See What Else (whatelsecomedy on IG) and a monthly show at Caveat - caveat.nyc/events/tom-ds-big-new-york-show . See you soon!
I am 3 years late but I’ve been binging your channel and I love all your videos!! You are so funny and intelligent! Thank you for sharing soooo many interesting facts and I wish you the best!
Your videos are so good. You truly deserve waaaaaay more subscribers! What the heck youtube?! Why aren’t you suggesting this man?! I wanna speak to a manager....
Tom, I really can’t believe that your channel didn’t explode yet. You’re so underrated. Hope it’ll happen soon, you really deserve it. See you at your next live tour and a trivia question.😉 Wish you an amazing Wednesday. Love and support from Croatia 👋🏻🇭🇷🇺🇸🙃
Tom - one of the best (maybe the best) of your video tours that I have seen. An excellent mix of history, trivia, travel tips, pop culture, personal stories, and humor. Great pacing and timing. You crushed it!
Tom, you are without peer in providing accurate information. And I stress the word "accurate". There are a lot of walking tours of NYC on RUclips. However the information which they state as being fact is often crazy wrong. So you are The Man for detailed, correct information. You're funny& entertaining as well. By the way, please do not use God's Holy Name in vain. You have a wide audience. Thanks Tom.
Not gonna lie, Tom. You are the best youtube guide to NYC I've seen. Been to NY several times and read a ton of books on its history, but all these juicy historical nuggets you keep throwing out there are just brilliant!
This was great! I was in NYC...am In NYC...But I was here during the real lockdown and I actually was in Times square during the height of COVID. lockdown..This video had far more people in it than when I was there at the time...It was like the apocalypse hit, so crazy and empty. I walked through three weeks ago and it's pre covid density is back....OY VEY, I prefered it otherwise! Thank you for this video!!!!!!
An EXCELLENT half-hour walk/mini-tour of 42nd St. You, TomD, were introduced to me by "ActionKid" via RUclips not too long ago and I was very impressed by your style and humor. You have you own unique take on the Greatest City in the World. Love it!
Your RUclips channel is very well researched & informative. Just keep on blogging & very soon you will be surprised you will hit a million subscribers already.👍
Hey Tom, This is amazing. I'm from Stirling in Scotland and been to NYC last 2 years. It's my favourite place Bryant park especially and you bring it back to life for me. Many many thanks. Andy
Lovely documentary on my favourite city. First visit was October 1986, flew out with Pan Am into JFK. Saw Genesis at Madison Square Garden, and fell in love with the place. Been to New York 15 times from England. Love to walk everywhere, 🚶♂️ stopping off at the B&H Dairy for Yankee Bean Soup and Challa Bread.....mmmmm. Coming over from England, I fly into Newark, and get the train to Penn Station. Stay in and around the Chelsea area. Love going to gigs at the Garden, Radio City, Beacon and the Bowery Ballroom. Watching the New York Rangers and the Yankees play Walking over the Brooklyn Bridge, found lovely places to eat, and amazing book shops What I love about New York, is it's 24/7, you can walk everywhere, sells my favourite brew, Miller MGD, the champagne 🍾 of all beers Planning my next trip for March 2024, my birthday. Stay safe New Yorkers 🌎🌎
This should be required viewing for all US history students. I'm 46 and I've been watching this with earbuds, pausing to tell my 16 year old some trivia - and he's just as impressed, lol. Like the explanation of the term Broadway and why Times square is times square and the place for New Years countdown.
I found your channel by accident.... a very welcomed one I might add. Love the videos, they're interesting and informative but also lighthearted. Thanks for making them......
I'm a new subscriber, I'm a little obsessed with new york tours at the moment and yours are the best, not only are you very intelligent and knowledgeable but i also find you very funny!! Oh and easy on the eye 😉😂
Big fan if the self plugs! You pack more info in to one tour than all the knowledge in my head. Your making wanna goto NY city but during covid when it’s not so busy, so maybe I won’t make it.
What I love about NYC it is not just 1 city, Manhattan but 5 different cities (boroughs) in one. And if you run out of places to visit you can walk over the Washington Bridge to Fort Lee, New Jersey across the the Hudson River.
My virtual friend, you are absolutely second to none! Good fun! Been to 37 countries around the world, nothing compares to NYC and its extraordinary diversity. You capture its grandeur and liveliness perfectly! Thank you for your wonderful work!
Just discovered you from ActionKid and Sarah Funk...I’m really diggings you knowledge and caffeinated, rapid fire humor....I appreciate you show raw footage and capture glimpses of everyday New Yorkers living life..
WOW SUPER TOM, best City Walk ever. See soooo many more F A N C Y 😂 Places as I was there in Midtown 1998. Thank You so much. Many GREETINGS from Germany. I love your CITY WALK ❤️
I walked down that street every day to work at 43rd and 9th....7 train to Times Square...and I didn't know any of these things...I just mumbled to tourists, "for fuck's sake walk faster or move, not all of us are on vacation god damnit "....great video buddy, as usual...you got the gift of gab my friend.
Yo Tomas, it’s your old pal Paul Ketterman. This video randomly popped up in my feed. I had no idea you were a tour guide. I’ve lived here for 12 years now and you just told me a ton of info I’ve never heard. Good stuff man, I really liked it! Subbed 😎
I can't believe I just watched an entire half an hour video with a guy walking and talking on the sidewalk. Glad to discover your channel. Will check out your other videos later. I am really surprised that NY hasn't opened up yet. Makes no sense now to remain closed.
One cool thing to point out is that there's an indoor garden (based on a rainforest) on 42nd St. next to Tudor City. It's in the lobby of the Ford Foundation.
I totally agree about Bryant Park's bathroom. It's the cleanest and prettiest public bathroom I have ever been to. Love my city. I cannot wait for it to get back to its normalcy. Great video.
I absolutely love your channel. You know so much. Such great content. I used to do tours of NYC as well. Driving a van and talking. Imagine all the honking! 😆
When I visited NYC 3 times, I took the Greyhound from Toronto, Ontario to the Port Authority Bus Terminal on West 42nd St., I would walk around late at night and early in the morning by myself and not once have I been scared or ever bothered by any one in fact, I found NYC to be safe. Sometimes I would stay overnight to save on hostel costs.
@@vikkinicholson2300 hi, when ever I visit a new place I always do my research and watch RUclips videos of the surrounding area. As for NYC my first time there I've planned and researched it for around 1 year. if I feel it's not safe there is no way I would walk in that area. Thank you!
Was there in March. Stayed at Staybridge suits on 40st opposite the bus terminal. Definitely some weird characters at night. Loved it though. I want to go back
Thanks, great videos, lot of knowledge. and coolness, took me on a tour to a city I really love and miss during this pandemic. lower east side tour was wonderful too

Ha, thanks! I'll take that as a compliment!
I would hire him!
Love this guy
