Mecca Travel Guides and Tours

Self guided audio walking tour through Lower Manhattan. Plays on any iPod or iPhone or any MP3 enabled device. Lower Manhattan is the birthplace of New York City and, of course, the site of its most tragic event. Our tour will bring the history of New York to life like you've never heard it before. While this tour is a great introduction to the city for visitors, natives - whether you work in financial district or only venture downtown on occasion - will simply be fascinated by the rich history of this small patch of land (and landfill). The tour begins at the Netherlands Memorial flagpole at the Northestern edge of Battery Park. Lower Manhattan: The Making of a Financial Mecca will take you about 1.5 hours to complete, plus any additional stops you may wish to make along the way.

Self guided audio walking tour in New York City's Greenwich Village. Plays on any iPod or iPhone or any MP3 enabled device. It began as a farming community, evolved to the original suburbs of Manhattan and later became a mecca for artists, writers and musicians. Greenwich Village is a much storied and legendary place. It is a must for any visitor. And a neighborhood that holds hidden mystique for even the most ardent New Yorker. See one of the oldest cobblestone streets in the city. See where old horse stables have been transformed into some of the most desirable real estate in Manhattan. Visit the only Prohibition-era speakeasy still in operation; see the site of the first wedding by a standing US president. And a neighborhood not without its quirks, how about a home that's just 8.5 feet wide and worth a fortune? Or, thanks to some poor city planning almost 200 years ago, a street that actually intersects with itself.
