Had an awesome time on our ghost tour of downtown Newark, thanks to our fun and knowledgeable guide, who shared ghost stories based on real historical events in the city. It was a cool night and good size group of about 15-20. You can't beat this ticket fee. Terrific overall experience. Highly recommend Have You Met Newark

This was a great experience when I went to Newark NJ. Antonio explained everything thoroughly and well, didn’t think Newark had that much history to it. I would definitely come back to visit more spots!

A few years ago I took a walking tour of Downtown and had a great time learning about Newark with Emily. When our landlord, Capstone Elite, encouraged us to take a walking tour of the city with them, my roommates and I were a little skeptical. But Emily was AWESOME and the tour was so much fun. I had no idea Newark had so much to offer. We checked out historical places, some cool shops, and a few cool places to grab a bite. The places we were introduced to and the people we met on the tour totally changed the way we see Newark now. This was well worth the time and a great experience! Thank you Have You Met Newark Tours!

Get to know the entrepreneurial spirit of Newark by being immersed into the downtown, walking into storefronts, and talking to business owners. I have been going on Emily's Have You Met Newark Tours since its inception and have continued to join because it is constantly evolving as Newark goes through its renaissance. Have You Met Newark's tours introduced me to: Newark where I moved and eventually bought a home with my husband; the places where I have lunch, coffee, and buy fun stuff like fabric or a cool hat. I have also been fortunate to join some of Emily's tours in other downtowns and continue to go back to those communities to eat and shop. Thank you Emily for breaking down barriers and introducing me to all of the great entrepreneurs in Newark and beyond!

Fantastic tours lead by phenomenal tour guides with a wealth of energy and information. When my partner and I moved to Newark from Manhattan a few years ago, we were a bit unsure..clearly our new town had a great history but also sadly a lot of preconceived ideas. Our tour guides Emily and Antonio were the best possible ambassadors to our new town. We took at least three different tours with them over the first few months. They introduced our group not just to the history of Newark but to the wonderful small business and small business owners contributing to the renaissance of this great city! Definitely don't miss out on these tours!
