Points forts
On this self-guided audio tour, you will admire the architecture and savour the scandals of Fifth Avenue’s old money set. Hear from Emmy-nominated storyteller Tom Darbyshire of TellBetter Tours, who takes audio walking tours to a new level—less dry facts, more juicy stories. Opposite New York’s Central Park is the world’s most prestigious address: Fifth Avenue, where grand mansions were built by Gilded Age robber barons and their heirs. As you stroll along Millionaire’s Row and Museum Mile, I’ll share extraordinary stories of love and loss, epic battles over status, and deliciously petty squabbles over the rules that governed society in the late 1800s. Every mansion has its story, and we bring them to life in dramatic fashion, with voice actors and immersive sound design that puts you in the ballrooms, carriages and clubs of the Gilded Age elite. No other Gilded Age tour, recorded or live, packs as much detail and drama into one thrilling experience.

About New York
New York concentre gratte-ciel, musées célèbres, théâtres de Broadway et des dizaines de quartiers distincts dans cinq arrondissements actifs jour et nuit.
Manhattan est la première étape classique. Times Square scintille au-dessus du quartier des théâtres, Central Park s'étire sur des dizaines de rues entre l'Upper East Side et l'Upper West Side, et l'Empire State Building, le Chrysler Building et le Rockefeller Center dessinent la silhouette de Midtown. Plus au sud, le mémorial du 11-Septembre, Wall Street et le pont de Brooklyn sont proches les uns des autres, et des bateaux passent devant la statue de la Liberté pour gagner Ellis Island.
Top-ranked sights in New York: Statue of Liberty, Central Park, National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
