1St. Patrick's Cathedral
Experience the majesty of St. Patrick’s Cathedral like never before on this exclusive VIP guided tour. Guests will step beyond the velvet ropes into sacred spaces rarely open to the public — the ornate Sacristy and its private Chapel, where vestments and liturgical treasures are kept. Descend into the historic Crypt, resting place of New York’s archbishops, and stand upon the main Altar where generations of clergy have celebrated Mass. Your guide will lead you to the Cathedra — the Archbishop’s ceremonial seat — for an intimate, up-close view of its artistry and meaning. This immersive journey reveals the Cathedral’s living history, breathtaking architecture, and enduring spiritual significance, offering visitors a once-in-a-lifetime experience inside America’s most iconic house of worship.
