Big Apple Fanatics Tours

Big Apple Fanatics Tours Experience the Big Apple with a fourth generation New Yorker who brings history to life. The walks were created for those that love the history of New York.

They can be in the cozy lobby of the landmark Algonquin Hotel, standing inside a fort built in 1794 on Governors Island, or exploring the heroes of Cypress Hills National Cemetery. Founder Kevin Fitzpatrick is an expert on everything from cannons to cocktails, and has written extensively about the Jazz Age in Manhattan as well as authors, actors, and soldiers. All guides who work with the company also share his passion for history and literature.

Our Story

New York City is rich with clandestine history, stories rarely heard but kept alive by unassuming locals. To experience all of its secrets, one must seek out an NYC expert -- a true native to the concrete jungle. Luckily, such a man does exist. He’s written eight books, and is a member of the exclusive Guides Association of New York. Mr. Kevin C. Fitzpatrick of Big Apple Fanatics Tours is the ultimate guide. Since 1999, he’s been divulging the city’s biography, with a specialty for pre-WWII history. Experience the magic of the Big Apple from the esteemed point of view of a true New Yorker.
