Come explore the beginnings of the Big Apple right here in NYC’s Financial District.
This immersive Wall Street walking 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 of the Financial District in NYC, and we promise you’ll never think of Wall Street the same way again!

Meet your guide at 22 Broad Street, in front of the Blue Bottle Coffee. Don’t go inside any buildings as this is just our meeting point. Your guide will be out front holding a sign that says “ExperienceFirst.”
This tour is mostly an outdoor walking tour with a chance to visit inside a few buildings. While this isn’t a New York Stock Exchange tour (the New York Stock Exchange has been closed to visitors since 2001), we will visit the outside of the NYSE to discuss this landmark building and what goes on behind its closed doors.
We cover about 1 mile at a leisurely pace, and the walking route is fairly level.
We find those who appreciate finance and current events enjoy this tour even more. However, this tour is designed with a general audience in mind, and it’s great for families as well. You don’t need to have a financial background to have fun and learn on this tour. Questions are encouraged!
