Wall Street Insider Tour

 

Explore the history of the American Economy! This tour puts faces and events to the buildings and landmarks of downtown Manhattan. We try to personify and demystify Wall Street.

Highlights

• Learn about the 400 years of history that lead to modern Wall Street from the Dutch trading outpost to the humble beginnings of the NYSE to the current financial markets with an English-speaking guide.
• See where high-powered meetings take place, where billion dollar deals are negotiated, and where the fate of our economy is determined.
• Get a glimpse of where the "captains of industry" and Wall Street's "master of the universe" live and work. Be inspired by how some of the biggest US financial institutions were built by immigrants and their entrepreneurial spirit.
• Discover the Financial District's rich history, architecture and trivia. See the skyscraper race within the concrete jungle Guided by Wall Street insiders, you will see world-famous financial landmarks such as the New York Stock Exchange, Federal Reserve, and Wall Street. While meandering the narrow, winding streets of Lower Manhattan, you will hear exclusive stories from "inside the trenches" that will entertain, inform and shock you!

Come with us and explore the beginnings of the Big Apple. Stand on the steps near where George Washington was inaugurated as president. Feel the lingering scars of New York’s first tragic terrorist attack, and hear how a well-intentioned cleanup allowed the criminals to escape detection for over a hundred years. This is a less intensive version of the Financial Crisis tour and recommended for a general audience. Please note this tour does not go inside the New York Stock Exchange which has been closed to visitors since 2001.
