Welcome to the only tour of New York that’s front-page news!

For New Yorkers and tourists who want to see the Big Apple through the eyes of the city’s most interesting and best-read newspaper, The Post delivers.

Where else can sightseers learn about Rockefeller Center, Trump Tower or Central Park, and get the scoop behind the nation’s most colorful headlines?

Because it’s not enough to have a tour guide tell you that The Plaza hotel was featured in “Home Alone 2,” or that it hosted a lavish wedding for Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

You also need to know that it hosted one of Charlie Sheen’s wildest celebrity meltdowns, or, as The Post put it:

“TRASHED! Sheen in coke and hooker fueled rampage at The Plaza.”

Now, that’s a tour!

“Overall, I want it to be fun for people,” said Post publisher Jesse Angelo. “That’s the whole point. Every tour on earth tells you about The Plaza. None of them tells you about Charlie Sheen.”

And, none of them gives you a luxury bus plastered with The Post’s best front-page headlines.

There’s “Toast of the Town,” which fronted a story about the tanning-booth-obsessed New Jersey mom.

There’s “Weiner’s Rise and Fall,” which pretty much summed up the fall from grace of Congressman Anthony Weiner after he tweeted a crotch-shot photo and lied about it.

And, of course, there’s the granddaddy of them all, the collection of front-page words that most headline writers can only dream about: “Headless Body in Topless Bar,” which topped a picture of a maniacal murderer who forced a hostage at gunpoint to cut the head off a man the gunman had shot to death in a Queens bar.

If the headlines aren’t entertaining enough, clever tour guides add their own unique brand of storytelling skills, not that The Post’s sensational stories need any embellishment.

Not only can they crack jokes as if they were David Letterman, but they can tell you everything you ever wanted to know about the Ed Sullivan Theater, where Letterman does his late-night show.

“We were thrilled at the prospect of partnering with the Post on the Headlines tour. We try to offer as authentic a New York experience as possible and it doesn’t get more authentic New York than the Post,” said Jason Hackett, chief marketing officer for New York Cruise Lines. The Post partnered with Metro Sightseeing to deliver this entertaining new tour. Metro Sightseeing is a sister company to Circle Line Sightseeing, both of which are owned by the privately held New York Cruise Lines. The Headlines tour complements Metro’s existing schedule of New York City bus and boat tours.

The tour also mentions Post founder Alexander Hamilton, the nation’s first treasury secretary, who was mortally wounded in a duel with Vice President Aaron Burr.

The 2 1/2-hour tour starts at Seventh Avenue and West 57th Street and winds its way through Midtown, SoHo, Greenwich Village and lower Manhattan, where news is just waiting to happen.

Tickets are $49 each and are available at NYPost.com/tour, metrosightseeingny.com and on the bus.
