Jeremy was a very knowledgeable guide . We’ve been in Grand Central so many times yet learning the history behind the building and it’s many features inside and out was great. We had a super small group , so made it even more personal. Would recommend for anyone wanting to know more about one of the most beautiful buildings in NYC.

Great experience! Highly recommend! But there is a lot of standing in one place so you may want to book the morning tour.
