Our founder is a proud GANYC guide! It’s a great organization full of talented and generous people.

GANYC thanks all its members for their support this year, as we continued to grow our voice in the NYC tourism world, and advocate on behalf of professional guides. We hope everyone has a great holiday, and a great 2024.

A great city deserves the best ambassadors, and GANYC guides are the best of the best!

Senti parlare di New York e Central Park da quando sei bambino. Sai che sono due fra le mete turistiche più famose negli Stati Uniti. Parti con la convinzione che si tratti solo di un ammasso di grattacieli e di un grosso parco cittadino dove la gente va a passeggiare. Se provieni poi dall'italia hai la presunzione di pensare che ci sia poco di rilevante in tale posto dal punto di vista storico e culturale.

Hai però la fortuna di incontrare, nella vita, Emma la quale è capace di ribaltare le tue convinzioni ed estirpare i tuoi pregiudizi. Con lei fai un viaggio nella storia, nella cultura, nella natura di New York che non immaginavi possibile. Bastano pochi minuti con lei e New York non è più solo un ammasso di grattacieli e Central Park non è più solo un grosso parco dove la gente va a passeggiare.

Sono un biologo e guida naturalistica. Grazie ad Emma sono stato folgorato dal contrasto estremo fra mondo urbano e mondo naturale che solo questa città esprime

Grazie Marco Valtriani Birding in Italy!!
