Stroll the streets of New York’s oldest neighborhood as you retrace the steps of one of our greatest locals and founding father, Mr. Alexander Hamilton. Discover how Wall Street, the Stock Exchange, and our financial system began with this young immigrant. We'll end at the historic Fraunces Tavern where you have the option of complimenting your stroll through history with a pint at this colonial New York landmark.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Trinity Church
Drop by the oldest church in NYC and see its magnificent exterior and experience the history of the church from the 1690s to present day.
2. Trinity Church Cemetery & Mausoleum
Explore the churchyard where city leaders, entrepreneurs and Alexander Hamilton himself are buried. See Hamilton’s monument and learn about his family tomb.
3. Zuccotti Park
You’ll “occupy Wall Street” at this famous privately held public space that was home to the protest movement for several months in the fall of 2011.
4. Federal Reserve Bank of New York
Right across from “the room where it happened” (aka Thomas Jefferson’s previous address) is one of 12 Federal Reserve banks. Hear about how founding father Alexander Hamilton devised a scheme to bring banking to the newly formed United States of America and view the awe-inspiring exterior of the richest bank in the world.
5. Federal Hall
George Washington was inaugurated here! Learn how the founding fathers came to terms in writing the Bill of Rights and view the beautifully domed National Monument that later served as a customs house and part of the Treasury Department in the 19th Century
6. Wall Street
The Dutch built a wall as part of their 1624 settlement. Today’s Wall Street marks where that wall once stood and is truly the beating heart of the country’s financial systems.
7. Fearless Girl
Take photos with this iconic statue that was part of a pop-up art installation across from the Wall Street Bull. Now she stands guard looking over the New York Stock Exchange.
8. New York Stock Exchange
From the opening bell to recession alerts, the New York Stock Exchange gauges the financial health of the United States. Experience the thrill of the iconic market at the close of their working day
9. Stone Street Historic District
Walk down the oldest (and first paved) street in NYC and take in iconic views that hearken back to NYC’s European founding.
10. Fraunces Tavern Museum
Washington drank here! And you can, too! Learn about the history of the city’s oldest tavern that was a key part of the national government from 1785-1790. End your tour with an optional stop inside for drinks or dinner.

We loved this tour! We learned so much! Astrid was amazing! She is very friendly and knows a lot about Hamilton's history and all the Financial District. Taking the tour before the musical was important to understand some points that are not so clear in the musical. This tour was one of the highlights of New York.

This tour is incredible! Astrid was so knowledgeable about the development of New York, the American Revolution, and the life Alexander Hamilton. My dad, who accompanied me, is a huge history buff and really loved Astrid's presentation of the facts and I loved getting to learn more about the city I call home!

I loved this tour! Mickey was so informative about the places Alexander Hamilton would have been in New York and historical information about the buildings in the area, the actual "room where it happened," and placements of events that I had heard of, but had no visual connection to until this tour. I've visited New York 4 or 5 other times and this was by far my favorite tour. I loved Mickey's style and delivery and I appreciated seeing another facet of New York that was previously unknown to me.

Stone Street, Federal Reserve Bank, site of Jefferson’s house. Astrid, or “Ace”, was a great guide. Knowledgeable, well-spoken, gave us sit breaks and places where there was AC. Personable. Witty. The whole 2 hours was packed with information and conversation.

We ended up not having any other people on our trip and received a private tour. Our guide, Sam, knew all of his information and was quick to try to answer any questions about Hamilton we didn’t know. Highly recommend!
