⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a fantastic time with Dana! Even though it was a bitterly cold February day—so cold that my power bank actually froze and stopped working—Dana was right there on time and ready to go.
She has an incredible insider’s perspective. She shared the fascinating history of Wall Street’s evolution and gave us insights you’d never find in a movie.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in Wall Street. It was the highlight of our trip! - Jiayi W, Wall Street Tour, Feb 2026
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Took Dana's Wall Street Tour and I cannot believe how much info she packs into a 75 minute tour. Want the history of trade from the Dutch til now? Check. Want to know what the trading floor on the NYSE was like before computers? Check. How policies impact markets? Check.
My boyfriend dragged me on this tour and now I think Wall Street is actually fun and interesting.- Jesse D, Wall Street Tour, August 2025
What Will I See on the New York Stock Exchange Tour?
Experience the heart of global finance at the legendary New York Stock Exchange. While the NYSE trading floor is no longer open to the public, the tour brings the action to life right from the steps of the exchange. You’ll learn how trading evolved from chaotic open-outcry pits filled with shouting brokers to the lightning-fast electronic markets that dominate today. Along the way, we’ll explore key landmarks on Wall Street and uncover the stories, personalities, and market moments that shaped the world’s most famous financial district.
Wall Street Walking Tour: What’s Included?
This guided walking tour blends New York City history with the fascinating evolution of global finance. Guests will explore historic financial landmarks, hear stories of market crashes, booms, and bold innovators, and gain a clearer understanding of how modern markets actually work. The experience combines history, storytelling, and real market insight, making complex financial concepts approachable and engaging for both beginners and experienced investors.
Why Take a Wall Street Tour with a Former Trader?
What makes this tour unique is the personal perspective behind it. As the child of a floor broker who spent 43 years working inside the NYSE, I grew up hearing firsthand stories from the trading floor - and seeing it every Good Friday (it's a thing). After completing 250 hours of proprietary day-trading training, I also bring a modern trader’s understanding of market behavior—from the difference between trading and investing to concepts like golden crosses and Fibonacci levels.
The result is a tour that doesn’t just explain Wall Street’s history—it shows how the markets really work, through the eyes of someone who has spent a lifetime immersed in the culture of finance.
