On the 2-hour tour you will see some of the most iconic superhero movie locations, from Marvel, DC, and other comic book universes. The first stop will be the United Nations Headquarters, which appeared in the Batman movie, Superman IV, and in many Marvel Comics. Nearby you will find the Tudor City Palace – the apartment of Spider-man’s Green Goblin, and the Daily News Building, which represented the Daily Planet in the first Superman movie starring Christopher Reeves.

Your Private Guide will show you the Overlook Bar, which in the 1970s served as a popular hangout spot for NYC’s authors, newspapermen, and acroonists. Further on you will see the iconic Chrysler Building, which can be seen in movies such as Percy Jackson and the Lighting Thief, The Avengers, and Spider-man. You will also see Grand Central Terminal where epic battle scenes from the original X-Men movie and The Avengers take place. Behind it is the Metlife Building- the Stark Tower in The Avengers.

Another must-see location will be the main building of the New York Public Library, where Uncle Sam said his famous words to Peter Parker: “with great power comes great responsibility”.
