From the city’s early railroad barons to the design of the attached Greybar Building, you’ll learn the ins and outs of Grand Central as you explore Midtown Manhattan on foot.

Learned so much about early history of NYC, the Vanderbilt s, architecture and of course GCT. great tour

Great tour; guide was engaging.

Gail_N, Dec 2023

We really enjoyed our tour. Martin was engaging and very knowledgeable and gave interesting information and history about Grand Central that added to our visit to this beautiful New York structure. He was also accommodating; it a chilly night and he made sure that we were all comfortable with the weather while we viewed the exterior of the building. With the small group of four, he was able to hear and answer all of our questions. The tour had a good flow and we would recommend it to friends.

Great informative Walking tour of Grand central terminal

ANN_M, Dec 2022

On this almost 2 hour tour, we learned about the history of grand central from the beginning, the architecture and materials used, and stories associated with the terminal. Our guide, Martin, was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the information he was sharing. He presented historical photos to share also. It was a very interesting and enjoyable tour.
