Saturday
Walker Hotel Tribeca & World Trade Center Tour:
From Industrial Juggernaut to Fashionable Celebrity Haunt
On this tour we’ll see Tribeca, one of the first neighborhoods to thrive as the city of New York expanded northward. Exploring its cobblestone streets, we’ll hear tales of abandoned industrial lofts becoming the homes and studios of pioneering artists, before transitioning to some of the most desirable residences NYC has to offer. We’ll continue down through lower Manhattan concluding at the Oculus, making it easy to return to either of the Walker Hotels via subway or continue exploring the WTC and Financial District on your own.
Duration: 1.5 hours
Tour leaves Saturdays at 10am from the Walker Hotel Tribeca lobby (77 Walker Street, between Broadway and Cortlandt Alley)
Sunday

The Bohemian Neighborhood that Changed the World
On this tour, we’ll see 19th-century row houses and cobbled streets which in the 20th-century became where jazz, art, gay rights, and culture thrived. We’ll be sure to include pop culture sites from movies and tv shows and see where Bob Dylan arrived to New York. You’ll have ample opportunities to snap some photos as we explore some of the most picturesque streets in New York City. We’ll conclude the tour at Washington Square Park, making it is easy to return to either of the Walker Hotels or continue exploring on your own.
