What a great tour!! Matt is a TRUE Swifty which was great. So cool to learn a bit about Taylor’s time in NY and to also learn about the entire SoHo/Tribeca/The Village area. Would def recommend for all the Swifties and non-Swifties out there. Thanks Matt for a great time.
I’m glad you had fun I the tour learning about Taylor’s time in NY as well as the areas of SoHo Tribeca and The Village. Thanks for your review!
The tour was excellent! It covered a lot of interesting information that we would not have gotten anywhere else. Matthew expertly navigated us through several adjacent lower Manhattan neighborhoods that Taylor Swift has a strong presence in, all the while relating her genius and social conscience to us in a fun and inspiring manner. Highly recommend!

Our tour guide was perfect!! Attentive and easy to follow, very engaging. A Swifty with great info about NYC. We learned a lot, not just about Taylor. Loved the stop at Milk, too! Took the tour with my 10 year old daughter but would be equally fun with my girlfriends.
I’m glad you enjoyed the tour, found it easy to follow and very engaging. I’m also glad you enjoyed learning about NYC as well as Taylor and that this would be equally as fun with your girlfriends as it was with your ten year old daughter. Thanks for your review!
This was the best tour for a Swiftie to go to and all the references he makes to songs are so nice. He describes all the stops with perfect detail and takes so many questions and answers so well!!! 🫶🫶
I’m glad you appreciated the references to the songs and appreciated the descriptions of the stops as well as answering questions. Thanks for your review!
I highly recommend this amazing Taylor Swift tour. It was fascinating—both for me and for my teen. Matthew is a gifted guide: while focusing on Taylor Swift, he shares tons of fascinating insights about the music industry, the city, queer history, and more. I used to live in NYC, and yet I learned so much—about the Village, SoHo, and Tribeca, as well as about Taylor Swift herself. You get to see where she recorded some of her music and learn about the stories behind it all.
Matthew was a great guide! We had the best time walking through different neighborhoods with him and hearing all of his knowledge on Taylor Swift and NYC in general! A great way to spend an afternoon of our trip!
I’m glad you had the best time walking through the different neighborhoods and learning more about Taylor Swift. Thanks for your review!
This was a wonderful tour and such a fun way to see a different part of New York! Matthew, our guide, couldn't have been more knowledgeable or enthusiastic and made the tour so fun for us all. He went above and beyond to show us the city through Taylor's eyes, and it was so cool to see photos and videos of her in the places we were seeing. He also touched on some interesting bits of the city's history too, which was a bonus, and gave us a better understanding of the area. Would definitely recommend for any Swiftie!
