Spend your morning discovering the heart of Manhattan with a local to show you its biggest sights, from the skyscrapers of Wall Street to the pools and engraved names at the 9/11 Memorial. Start with the Financial District to get fascinating insight into the history of finance, politics, and power in NYC (and the world) as you walk by famous sights like Federal Hall and Trinity Church.

Then head to the 9/11 Memorial, where you'll discover the impact of this day on the city and the world as you pause for a moment of reflection at the country's largest man-made waterfalls. We'll walk part of the Canyon of Heroes, visit many more beloved landmarks, and even glimpse the Statue of Liberty from across the bay. Then board the ferry to see the statue up close. You can tour the Statue of Liberty Museum and even continue on to Ellis Island if you wish. Return at your leisure.

Dave our tour guide was definitely a pleasure to be around! Our group was small only 7 of us but he made sure we were always together. He was respectful on not speaking so loud and paused to continue conversation when loud noises were around to make sure we heard him. Super knowledgeable of the history of NY!! He was so kind and offered to take pics of us at certain locations! Would definitely recommend Dave to ANYONE!! Thank you Dave!!! You were an amazing your guide.

Dave is awesome, so knowledgeable, attentive, and just a great vibe! He made it welcoming for us to ask any questions that came to mind regarding the history marks we visited and present day questions like where are some of the best pizza places. Thanks Dave!

This walking tour was excellent. Our guide Dave is very knowledgeable and patiently answered questions. The tour included unexpected extras like Alexander Hamilton‘s grave at Trinity Church and the Oculus atrium. The final part of the tour to Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island on our own was very enjoyable and impactful. We could have spent a lot longer at the Ellis Island Museum.
