Pickup details:

Since our tours are private, we can pick you up from your hotel or apt rental, if you prefer. The travel time from your lodging to Downtown NY would be part of our tour time. We would either walk or use the subway to get there. Otherwise, we can meet at the designated meeting point. Please indicate clearly during booking if you would like to be picked up rather than meeting at the designated point.

Meeting point

Let's meet outside Bean & Bean Coffee at 71 Broadway, just south of Wall Street and Trinity Church. If you get there early, the coffee shop offers good coffee and tea, along with light breakfast options and a toilet.

End point

Since this is a private tour, the end point is flexible. You can specify a preferred end point during the booking process, or we can drop you off near One World Trade and the 9/11 Memorial & Museum.
