New York City, a teenager compared to London or Paris, is still one of the most inspiring cities in the world. You’ll discover its Dutch and colonial origins through architecture and public spaces that even most New Yorkers don’t know exist.

Description

During this tour, your enthusiastic guide will reveal historical sites including Bowling Green and Castile Clinton in Battery Park. Learn about the most important statesmen including George Washington and Alexander Hamilton at both Federal Hall and Trinity Church before fast-forwarding to the last century, when the Charging Bull became the symbol for Wall Street and the NYSE. Discuss the clash of classic and modern architecture that creates New York’s distinct skyline before moving to modern times. Learn the tragic tales lived by New Yorkers on 9/11 while visiting the official memorial as well as the firefighters’ memorial. The city has moved forward though and the soaring Freedom Tower is the best example. Recently the Occupy Wall Street movement took over Zuccotti Park, demonstrating how the district is still a vital part of the city. After wandering the oldest part of New York City, you’ll understand why it rivals any other metropolis worldwide.
