Overview

The Rubbish and Rats in NYC Walking Tour is a unique dive into dirty subjects:
-how New York City is built on trash;
-how rats thrive on human consumption;

  • and how NYC has dealt with both these filthy, disease-causing problems since 1626.

We'll learn about rat biology and habits, rubbish disposal systems, metaphorical rats (i.e. - corrupt people), and gross stories featuring all of the above. This is the crossroads of science and history at its finest!

The guide is a graduate of the New York City Trash Academy and a member of the New York City Rat Pack, “an elite squad of dedicated anti-rat activists.” Rats, rubbish, and New York City history are her passions!
