Private Tours

Purefinder New York offers private walking tours for corporate, academic, and cultural institutions seeking a focused, historically grounded engagement with the city. These tours are designed as intellectually rigorous experiences rather than conventional sightseeing, using New York’s built environment as a framework for examining power, culture, and public life.

Why Private Tours?

Private tours allow for deeper engagement, tailored pacing, and thematic focus. They are suitable for individuals, private groups, and organizations, including professional development sessions, visiting delegations, conferences, and educational programs that benefit from a discussion-driven format and the ability to adapt content to specific interests.

How Private Tours Work

All Purefinder New York tours may be booked as private experiences, subject to guide availability. Private tours offer greater flexibility in pacing and focus, and can be adapted to suit the interests of individuals, private groups, and organizations.

This tour is conceived specifically as a private, year-round program examining surveillance, information control, and public life in twentieth-century New York.

Lectures and Talks

Purefinder New York also offers in-person and online lectures for academic, cultural, and professional audiences. These sessions draw on the same research-driven approach as the walking tours and can be tailored to specific themes, timeframes, or institutional needs.
