New York Pigeon Tours

Ah, New York — America’s most pigeon-populated city. You’ll never see pigeons the same way again. Manhattan tours just started, Brooklyn tours coming soon.

"Amazing experience. I have a new love for pigeons."
- reviewer on TripAdvisor
"The crowds keep flocking"
- The Philadelphia Inquirer

Manhattan tour

Tour guide HM points out pigeon behavior.

On our Manhattan Pigeon Tour, meet the pigeons of the New York.

Your guide will bring you around Midtown Manhattan, visiting established flocks and nesting sites. You’ll observe pigeons nesting, dodging traffic, and defying anti-pigeon spikes.

What you’ll do

  • We’ll start the tour at Bryant Park where we’ll teach techniques for getting comfortable using binoculars.
  • Next, we’ll visit an established flock and observe all types of pigeons and behaviors. We may even see a hawk or falcon on the hunt!
  • Lastly, we’ll visit a nesting site. Depending on the season, we may get lucky and see baby or juvenile pigeons!

Brooklyn tour

We hope to start offering a Brooklyn tour soon.

If you want to express your interest (which will encourage us to do it), click the button below to send us an email. We’ll then notify you when Brooklyn tours start!

(We’ll only email you to notify you — we won’t put your address into a list or use it for any other reason.)

Wait… it’s Philly pigeon tours, but in New York?

We started as Philly Pigeon Tours, not expecting these tours to catch on. But they did.

And we like New York, and y’all have great pigeons, so we decided to do them here too.

But, we don’t want to take "Philly" out of the name.

You know what they say — you can take the Pigeon Tours out of Philly, but you can’t take the Philly out of the Pigeon Tours.
