   Susansez Nyc Walkabouts

   Jan 2002 — Present

   As the owner of SusanSez NYC Walkabouts I lead sightseeing tours throughout NYC as well as plan itineraries and make arrangements to visit venues, restaurants, theater and more. Customized tours are available. SusanSez Walkabouts is always developing new itineraries throughout the 5 boros. Scheduled tours include walks through the \"real\" Little Italy- Arthur Ave in the Bronx, Astoria (one of the most diverse neighborhoods in NYC), the Lower East Side with its rich immigrant history and \"hip\" present.In addition to walking tours and step on work I have presented \"armchair tours\" throughout the metropolitan area,(aka powerpoint presentations) These tours are available to groups that would rather have a tour brought to them. The tours are informative and fun.As a docent at the Museum of the City of New York I have the opportunity to continually hone my skills and increase my knowledge of NYC. The tours I conduct at the Museum are on current exhbits and the Museum\'s history.
