Begin your private Lower Manhattan walking tour in the Financial District, the city’s historic and financial core. With your guide leading the way, stroll down Wall Street and see iconic sites like the New York Stock Exchange and the Federal Reserve while discovering the stories behind the city’s rise as a global financial powerhouse.
At the 9/11 Memorial, take a moment to reflect at the deep fountains marking the footprints of the Twin Towers. Hear moving accounts of first responders and admire the striking architecture of Freedom Tower and the Oculus, rising from the site’s tragic history.
The tour concludes at The Battery (or Battery Park as locals still call it), a quiet spot rich with history. Learn about the ticker-tape parades along the nearby Canyon of Heroes and enjoy sweeping views of the water with the Statue of Liberty in the distance as your guide shares about this enduring symbol of New York and America.
Want to see the Statue of Liberty up close? Just add on a ticket to Liberty Island when you book this tour. Most of our travelers choose this option — visiting the statue is a must if you’ve never been!
