Our high school son is very interested in stock market happenings so we thought we'd take the time to do this financial Wall Street Tour. It was fantastic! Full of interesting history of the stock market, but also the nation's history, New York history, and the area surrounding Wall Street. Dana was fantastic. The tour began on time and she was very informative and interesting. I highly recommend this tour for any families with school-age kids and adults. We paired it with 911 memorial and it was a great full day.
