Taking in the splendour of the main hall and having the details revealed to us. Grand Central has to be at the heart of NYC heritage but with a restored and assured future in 21st century Manhattan. Expert, full and entertaining commentary from our friendly guide, Ginny

Experiencing the interesting routes of Grand Central station from within and the exterior as well were simply astounding and remarkable to view. The tourist guide: Ginny was excellent and very knowledgeable about the station and the architectural masterpieces that were on display.
