Company Halts ‘Ghetto’ Tours
A tour bus company in New York has announced that they will “cease all tours†to the Bronx after they inflamed residents by selling it as a “ghetto tour.†The company, “Real Bronx Tours,†catered to a European crowd, offering a $45 trip that included a visit to the South Bronx—where they assured customers they would remain a “safe distance†away from the people. The company told riders that the Bronx represents “one of the darkest chapters†of the city’s history. Angry Bronx residents say it's a false claim. “Those days are over, the Bronx is being rebuilt, it's rising again," said Bronx resident Bobby Sanabria.
