Overview of your New york tour:

Lower Manhattan is where New York’s Story begins. Allow me to guide you across the birthplace of New York—an area spanning just 300 acres where centuries of history, finance, and bold architecture converge. Once Dutch New Amsterdam (1624), this district gave rise to Wall Street, the NYSE, and America’s revolutionary spirit. On this tour, we’ll walk the cobblestone streets where Washington bid farewell and explore how the city was shaped. I will uncover this area's hidden stories, for you, and trust me, you won't find the district's history to be boring! Together we’ll discover, speculate, and of course enjoy every moment. Get ready to witness stark architectural contrasts—chapels beside glass towers, colonial facades under modern steel— and see how New York honors its past while always reinventing itself. This is not a lecture—it’s an adventure. Let’s go!

Your New york tour itinerary

-We begin at St. Paul’s Chapel (1766), New York’s oldest surviving church and a quiet witness to centuries of history. -We will continue to the soaring Oculus, Calatrava’s striking transit hub and mall. -Next, the Winter Garden will welcome us with its sunlit atrium of palms and downtown’s bustle. -We’ll then explore Liberty Park, St. Nicholas Church and the 9/11 Memorial that powerful tribute of absence—twin reflecting pools set in the towers’ footprints, honoring the lives lost with quiet dignity amid the city’s pulse. (Tour does not include access to 911 Museum) -A short walk brings us to Trinity Church, Hamilton’s Gothic resting place. -Just across Broadway lies Wall Street, once the edge of New Amsterdam, now the heart of American finance. -We’ll trace early New York along Stone and Pearl Streets, see the Charging Bull, and stroll through Bowling Green and Battery Park. -We will walk by Fraunces Tavern in our way to the historic South Street Seaport where are tour ends.
