About

I am a 5th generation local to the New York City area, licensed to conduct tours in the city since 2013. In 2011, I was intimately involved with the establishment of Occupy Wall Street, and am a living treasure trove of knowledge relative to that subject. At this present time I am in the process of building a philosophical think tank and writing a historical memoir on the Occupy Movement.

Not good unless you get Mike Pellagatti - then it's great

Review of CitySights NY

Reviewed August 22, 2014

This is a rip-off tour that lies about what you get. It's disorganized, they don't have enough buses, and most of the time you don't get the live tour guide.

But we were lucky enough to get Mike Pellagatti, a journalist who seems to moonlight as a tour guide (or maybe it's the other way around). He's incredible - telling the bus things about the history, the locales, and his favorite places to eat. My kind of tour!

Very entertaining.
