Private NYC Tours for Small Groups: Hosting You in Our City
New York City is not a place you simply pass through. It’s a city experienced through its neighborhoods, its pace, its stories, and the moments that unfold between destinations. When you visit, you’re trusting someone not just to show you landmarks, but to respect your time and help you experience the city in a way that feels authentic and human.
At Private Tours New York, we think of our guests exactly that way — as guests in our city. Our private NYC tours for small groups are designed for people who value comfort, flexibility, and thoughtful hosting over scripted sightseeing.
Private Tours New York is family-owned and locally operated, with more than 30 years of experience serving New York City through our parent company, Silver Star. That history shapes how we work.
- We are not a big-box tour seller.
- We are not a ticket broker or a mass-market operator.
- We are a private touring company built on relationships, not volume.
Being family-owned for three generations means we approach every tour with care, accountability, and pride. When guests choose us, they’re placing trust in our hands — and we take that responsibility seriously.
A private car tour of New York City should feel calm, unhurried, and personal. It’s about moving through the city comfortably, without navigating crowded transit or rigid schedules.
Our private SUV tours of New York include:
- A vehicle reserved exclusively for your group
- Door-to-door pickup and drop-off
- Flexible pacing that adapts to your needs and interests
- Professional chauffeurs who understand both the city and the importance of hosting
Whether you want a broad introduction to New York or a focused experience built around specific interests, the tour adjusts to you — not the other way around.
Our tours are especially well suited for small groups who want to stay together and experience the city without being folded into crowds or shared itineraries.
These private tours are ideal for:
- Families traveling together
- Friends exploring New York as a group
- Couples who value privacy and ease
- Guests who prefer conversation and comfort over crowds
One popular option for first-time visitors is our NYC Highlights Tour, which offers a well-rounded introduction to the city’s most iconic sights at a relaxed, thoughtful pace.
We are proud to offer some of the best private tours in NYC for seniors, not because we market to age, but because we design tours with dignity, accessibility, and comfort in mind.
Our Accessible & Senior-Friendly NYC Tours emphasize:
- Comfortable vehicles with easy entry and exit
- Minimal walking with sightseeing from the vehicle when preferred
- Flexible pacing and frequent opportunities to rest
- Attentive, respectful service from experienced chauffeurs
Some guests want to experience New York from more than one perspective. For those looking to combine land and water views, our NYC Bus and Boat Tour offers a full-day experience that blends private touring with a scenic cruise.
