Come explore the beginnings of the Big Apple right here in NYC's Financial District. This immersive tour is led by former traders, bankers, brokers, and other Wall Street veterans who’ve worked in the financial trenches and seen it all. They’ll share firsthand stories and guide you through over 400 years of local history. From New York's earliest days as a Dutch trading outpost to its rise as a global financial leader, they’ll make these streets come alive with firsthand stories. You'll walk the streets where billion-dollar deals are made and see the hallowed institutions where the fate of our economy hangs in the balance. There’s history, drama, and more than a few surprises along the way — like how a cleanup with the best intentions let criminals evade detection for over a century. Join us on this educational and entertaining walking tour, and we promise you’ll never think of Wall Street the same way again.
Passionate and very interesting guide.
All the information could have been obtained in a concise manner via Chat Gt. I had hoped to gain some insight into one of the stock exchanges. Furthermore, it was not a financial expert, but "merely" someone who comes from a family of bankers. You expect a stock market expert and get someone who has only memorized stock market history. Disappointing!
The insider tour gives you a very distorted picture, so expect something different. We didn't see anything inside. We would have been better off joining one of the large groups or reading about the history online. James, our guide, was very helpful, so that wasn't the problem. The expectations you create by offering this tour are completely different from the reality, and I wouldn't recommend this tour to anyone.
