About this tour
See more than 30 New York landmarks on a five-hour walk through the city’s storied streets. This New York City Walking Tour begins on Wall Street, where you’ll pass Federal Hall, the New York Stock Exchange, and the Charging Bull and Fearless Girl statues. A local guide brings the city’s history to life as you continue past City Hall and views of the Brooklyn Bridge, then explore the character-filled neighborhoods of Five Points, Chinatown, and Little Italy.
The route leads to the Flatiron Building and up Fifth Avenue, with photo stops near the Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, and Bryant Park. Step inside Grand Central Terminal before discovering the bright energy of Times Square and Rockefeller Center. Along the way, spot St. Patrick’s Cathedral and other celebrated sights, then finish at The Plaza Hotel near Central Park.

How the score works and rating distribution in New York City
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.1. Top 49% in New York City means it ranks in the top 49% of tours in New York City by this score.
