Who are the Greeters? History of the Greeters? Book a Greeter?
The Greeters are happy to welcome visitors as they would do with friends. They offer their time to make them discover the places they love, tell their story, their neighborhood or village and share their way of life. See the Wikipedia page.

A Greeter is not a professional guide. He welcomes visitors into his living environment and explains it with passion. Come on your own or in groups of up to six people and discover the best tips during a walk or a discussion over a drink. Whatever the form of discovery, the most important thing is the encounter.
Tourism is often referred to as a vehicle for peace and better understanding between peoples. The Greeters believe that this is only true if there is an exchange between people and visitors. The tourist visit should not be limited to an act of consumption.
How does it work?
- The visitor chooses the thumbnail of his walking place. Menu “ Come for a Greet“
- Depending on the location, you can choose your ride, or let us make the choice for you. With one click, you will get the registration form.
- The validation of your registration immediately generates an acknowledgement email that also explains the rest of our exchanges
- A greeter makes you a proposal for a ride and if you agree, the walk is confirmed. Your email and telephone addresses are then exchanged so that you can contact each other and better prepare your “Greet”.

What is our history?
In 1992, Lynn Brooks wanted to erase the negative image of New York City, a frightening and sprawling city. She wanted to make her city known as she loved it. With the help of her network of friends, she then offered tourists unusual walks organized in the districts of the “Big Apple” by residents. The first Greeters organization was born.
