About this experience
Come join New York City's only sightseeing theater experience. You'll experience the history and culture of famous downtown Manhattan sights (Wall Street, the Woolworth Building, City Hall, Chinatown, Little Italy) while watching an original film noir comedy play. The two hour tour (available for up to 15 people) begins in Hanover Square as humble guide, Jason Thompson, attempts to lead a tour, when his ex-fiance unexpectedly barges in and tasks the group to find her missing husband. Every tour is unique and every group is immersed in a film noir thriller, filled with witty bantering and bickering as they help Jason and his alluring femme fatale solve clues and navigate the winding streets of downtown Manhattan.

Unique Experience!
This was a unique experience and a lot of fun. I found myself laughing the entire time. We had a great time. I am a big fan of film noir, but my guest was not. Nonetheless, we both enjoyed it. I learned a lot about Lower Manhattan area. There is a lot of history there.

Why are more tours not like this!
Exciting and insightful - why are more tours not like this! Thank you Jason for an unforgettable afternoon and for the unforgettable facts. If you like theatre and history then this is the tour for you. I've never laughed and learnt so much at the same time. Highly recommend!

History served with fun.
Both characters were entertaining, and Jason very knowledgeable about NYC. We had a hoot! And I'll add some padding here.

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tour Noir: A Dame To Guide For: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for New York.
How much does Tour Noir: A Dame To Guide For cost?
+
Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in New York usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tour Noir: A Dame To Guide For take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in New York is not rushed.
Is Tour Noir: A Dame To Guide For worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in New York, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tour Noir: A Dame To Guide For?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Tour Noir: A Dame To Guide For suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tour Noir: A Dame To Guide For?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in New York can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in New York and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tour Noir: A Dame To Guide For start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central New York within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in New York?
+
New York has more bookable experiences than any other city on Outty, and the quality spread is brutal. Observation decks are commoditised, so we score them on timed-entry reliability and sunset slots. Food tours and borough walks are where the ranking really separates operators, and the top scores in the city all come from small-group guides. On Outty we rank every New York experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Grand Canyon VIP Helicopter Tour, Half-Day Bus Tour of NYC Top Highlights, NYC Bus Tour of Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens: Art, Food & Sports. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit New York?
+
September to early November, and late April through June. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in New York?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
