Q: Is there an age limit for the Lower East Side Walking Tour?

A: There's really no strict age limit for the tour! It's suitable for all ages, including kids and teens. Just keep in mind that some parts of the tour may involve walking long distances, so it's best for younger kids to be able to walk comfortably. Families with kids often enjoy it!
