I've been here twice and both experiences were fantastic! We did the Under One Roof and 100 Years Apart experiences. Both were very informative and a great look into how people lived during their respective time periods. Definitely recommend checking the website beforehand to find which experience would most interest you.

Went on the Finding Home tour and our tour guide was Sophie. She was so knowledgeable about the families who lived in the apartment and made the tour so personal and interesting. Really enjoyed the tour and Sophie did an amazing job.

If you love storytelling, you've come to the right place! The Tenement Museum specializes in uncovering immigrant stories of the past. I recommend reserving tickets online ahead of time, especially if you're interested in a specific tour since tickets can sell out pretty fast. I purchased tickets for the "100 Years Apart" apartment tour, and it was amazing. Our tour guide was very engaging, and beautifully wove in the stories of Natalie Gumpertz (1880s) and Mrs. Wong (1980s). I was locked in the entire time, and had so much fun getting to walk through an old tenement building. As a history nerd, it was surreal to be walking up the stairs, holding onto an original railing from the 1800s time period. The museum gift shop is also really nice. If you are a tourist, there are a lot of NYC themed gifts for purchase. I also really loved how they had bookmarks for each of the tours near the check-in desk that were free to take. It was a nice memento! Overall, I plan on visiting the Tenement Museum again. I'm particularly excited to do more apartment tours specifically Tenement Women: 1902 and After the Famine: 1869. If apartment tours aren't your thing, they also have walking tours as well and food experiences!
