What did New York City look like in the 1770's? There was no Empire State Building or falafel carts. There wasn't even dollar pizza! On this tour, uncover the secrets of historic lower Manhattan as you experience a compelling tale of NYC life during the 1770's. As you stroll through the bustling side streets, you'll visit historic landmarks like St. Paul's Chapel, Battery Park, and Trinity Church. Walking through the streets, you will pause and re-imagine the sounds and smells of different cultures flocking to this American paradise. Oh, and as you go, don't forget the British officers patrolling the streets. Discover an unfamiliar world inside your familiar terrain.
Note: The tour meets downtown, near City Hall and the Brooklyn Bridge, the exact location to be provided upon purchase of tickets. This tour runs rain or shine, except in severe weather.

Revolutionary Era Walking Tour July 24, 2013My husband and I booked the Revolutionary War tour for July 19th, it was one of the best walking tours I have ever seen! We started at City Hall and ended up at the Fraunces Tavern. Along the way we were treated to a history of the Revolutionary War through the experiences of New Yorkers at the time, all told through stories and anecdotes. It was a great way to see Lower Manhattan and how it was a key staging ground for so many elements of our National history. I highly recommend this to anyone, it blows the double decker bus tours out of the water!

Revolutionary Era Walking Tour July 16, 2013My husband my two kids and I took the Revolutionary War tour during our stay in NYC. Our guide was extremely knowledgable and a very talented guide. I could not believe the wealth of knowledge she shared with us! Our family is huge history buffs and we learned so much during this tour.
