A fantastic tour at a normal pace with a little bit of everything for visitors to New York City. We will walk lower Manhattan, visiting locations of historical significance (like NYC City Hall and the 9/11 Memorial), others that are interesting in popular culture (like the Ghostbusters HQ and the courthouse steps from multiple law and police dramas in TV and film). We will be making one stop for real New York Pizza (payment for your food and drink is entirely up to you). A full list of stops is included in "Tour Details". The tour will end at the World Trade Center site, where I will share my experience as a local on the morning of September 11th 2001.
