Astoria Queens Ferry and Mini Bus Shared Tour
About
A guided, multi-transit experience that connects guests from familiar Manhattan to less-traveled Queens.
Traveling by ferry, bus, and foot, guests pick up practical city tools they can use long after the tour ends. This experience reveals how New York really works: how it moves, connects, and lives day to day.
Astoria, Queens is chosen on purpose. This journey brings water views, skyline moments, photo ops, murals, and more. And the streets and shop owners of Astoria quietly answer the question everyone wonders: Why do residents choose to live in New York City?
