Are you looking for an original way to explore New York? Climb aboard an authentic Checker taxi, the ancestor of today’s Nissan taxis, for a comprehensive tour of the city!
The Checkers ruled the streets of New York City from the mid-1950s to the late 1980s. And today these emblematic vehicles have almost all disappeared from circulation.
This tour with driver is completely private and the price displayed is therefore a package that covers from one to 5 people. Better to be many! The experience will be all the more fun if you are more than one.
An iconic New York taxi
Two routes are possible, one in Manhattan and the other in the other districts of New York:

- If you choose Manhattan, your driver and his taxi will meet you in Greenwich Village for a 2 hour ride through Lower Manhattan. You will head to SoHo, TriBeCa and South Street Seaport for breathtaking views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridge. You will then pass through Chinatown and Little Italy before returning to your starting point in Greenwich Village. To book this tour, go to the page of Private Manhattan Tour by Vintage Taxi.
- If you choose to browse neighborhoods around Manhattan, the meeting will be fixed in Brooklyn. This time the 2-hour tour will take you through the streets of Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx. Note that you can opt for a 4 hour tour, necessarily much more complete. To book this tour, go to the page of Private tour of neighborhoods outside Manhattan by vintage taxi.
