Private Lower Manhattan Financial District and 9/11 Memorial Walking Tour

Meet your private guide on Wall Street, the iconic epicenter of financial trading in the Western world. Learn about the formation of the New York Stock Exchange and the evolution of Manhattan from a small settlement into North America's financial capital. See the historic Fraunces Tavern, which dates back to 1762, walk along New York’s first stone street, and trace the journey of immigrants who helped shape the city with great views of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island from Battery Park.

Gain a new perspective on the evolution of this diverse and bustling neighborhood while visiting other local landmarks such as Trinity Church, Castle Clinton, the House of Morgan, Federal Hall, St. Paul’s Chapel, the Charging Bull, and the Woolworth Building. Walk along the Canyon of Heroes, the ticker-tape parade route where office workers have traditionally dumped tons of paper confetti on revelers celebrating triumphant soldiers, politicians, and athletes.

Pay tribute to one of the city’s darkest hours with a visit to the site where the twin towers of the World Trade Center once stood. Hear tales of the extraordinary heroism that followed the terrorist attack, and see the 9/11 Memorial and rebuilt Freedom Tower, the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere.

The tour concludes at City Hall. Please note this tour does visit nor include admission to the 9/11 Memorial Museum.
