Discover Lower Manhattan Walking Tour
Overview
Discover where New York City began on a walking tour through the historic heart of Lower Manhattan. This 90-minute experience explores the Financial District, where centuries of commerce and government shaped the city.
Begin at City Hall Park, surrounded by some of New York’s earliest institutions. From there, your guide traces Lower Manhattan’s evolution from a Dutch trading post to the financial capital of the world.
We continue through the Financial District, walking along Wall Street and learning how early markets operated before skyscrapers defined the skyline. Along the way, we explore the Stone Street Historic District, one of the oldest surviving streets in New York.
We discuss landmarks such as Federal Hall and Trinity Church, including the final resting place of Alexander Hamilton, and their role in the city’s early history. Near the World Trade Center area, your guide explains how this part of Lower Manhattan was rebuilt after September 11.
