I took this tour with a group of close friends to learn more about the Village, and it did not disappoint! My favorite part was learning more about the history of the Stonewall riots and the bravery the LGBTQ+ exhibited that day. Jonathan was an amazing guide, and I would certainly recommend him and this tour to anyone visiting for the first time.
