Apple Subway Tours Apple Subway Tours focuses on the extraordinary art that is available throughout the NYC undergroun Yet it often doesn't get the respect it deserves.

The NYC subway system is one of the city's treasures, with dramatic improvements having occurred over the past few decades. New Yorkers tend to take it for granted while visitors to the city and newcomers are sometimes intimidated by it, when in fact it offers inexpensive and easy access to the city’s great attractions, as well as the experience of riding on one of the world’s most impressive tran

sit systems. Apple Subway Tours offers tours that seek to inform and entertain. Our focus is on the extraordinary art that is available throughout the NYC underground system, and we offer three art tours -- an Uptown, Downtown, and Queens tour -- that showcase a broad range of the system's remarkable art collection. While this art is readily available to millions of riders on a daily basis, few stop in the midst of their daily commutes to appreciate it. But for those who do make the effort, an otherwise drab commute can become an aesthetic experience.

As the weather is getting cooler, why not take a trip underground? The art is always beautiful and the trains are always running! 🚇😊
