Beyond Times Square’s History Highlights Private NYC History Tour is an absolute must if you are a fan of history – in particular the history of New York City.

Created just for history buffs, this look at the rich history of the Big Apple is led by one of our local licensed tour guides – who, of course, is a history specialist.

Your full-day specialty experience will start in Brooklyn and end at the iconic Empire State Building – with plenty of stops along the way.

You’ll start your New York history tour in Brooklyn with a walk over the world-famous Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan.

From there you’ll embark on our Origins of New York Private Walking Tour to see where it all started as “New Amsterdam” – a small Dutch settlement that today is known as Lower Manhattan.

After taking in various historical sites, your tour will end and you get to enjoy lunch at NYC’s most historic – and oldest – bar and restaurant.

But it’s not over yet, because after lunch you’ll be treated to a private 90-minute tour of the iconic Empire State Building with one of their Official Ambassadors!

Itinerary & Highlights

  • Your historical tour of NYC begins when your private driver picks you up at your hotel in a luxury vehicle to take you to the start of your tour in Brooklyn.
  • Here you’ll meet your expert tour guide and start your journey with a walk over the infamous Brooklyn Bridge, taking in breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty and other sites along the East River. Your step back into history commences as you disembark the bridge’s walkway into Lower Manhattan – which you will see like never before – through history.
  • Walking in the footsteps of early settlers, you’ll be enchanted by stories and little-known facts your tour guide will share. As you wind your way through Lower Manhattan, you’ll see the spot where George Washington was inaugurated, St. Paul’s Chapel – which is the oldest church building in Manhattan, Trinity Church – where you will find out why it was an important site during the American Revolution, the infinity pools of the 9/11 Memorial and more.
  • At the conclusion of your tour, it’s time for a scrumptious lunch. You’ll have premade reservations at the historical Fraunces Tavern, which is a National Landmark building that once served as a watering hole for many of the Founding Fathers of the US!
  • After lunch your private luxury vehicle will pick you up to head to the Empire State Building in Midtown Manhattan.
