Overview

This two-hour walking tour in New York City's Financial District is led by a finance professional with experience in the industry. The tour begins on Wall Street, where the guide explains the key events and consequences of the 2008-2009 financial crisis, including how some traders made billion-dollar fortunes while major financial institutions collapsed. Participants will spend about one hour exploring behind the scenes of Wall Street to hear detailed stories from those who experienced the crisis. The tour includes a 15-minute stop at the Charging Bull statue, where visitors can take photos. It continues to Federal Hall, spending around 20 minutes at this historic site where George Washington took the oath of office as the first U.S. president. The walk ends near the Federal Reserve Bank. The tour mostly takes place outdoors with some opportunities to enter a few buildings. The New York Stock Exchange is viewed from outside only, as it has been closed to visitors since 2001. A moderate amount of walking is involved throughout the route.
