Overview

Explore the iconic Grand Central Terminal with energetic, fun local guides. We want you to experience Grand Central the full way: fun facts, great photo ops, and tastes of some of the food you can find right here inside the terminal.

You’ll shoot photos and quick videos as we show you where to stand and what to look for so your camera roll actually hits. And yes, you’ll learn the history and the little details that make Grand Central more than just a train station. You should leave entertained, pleasantly full, and with content you can’t wait to show off.

Think: the Whispering Gallery, the Oyster Bar, the Campbell Bar, the tennis courts, and the bustling market. Add the ceiling, the famous clock, and a few hidden-in-plain-sight spots most people miss even after multiple visits.

This tour is for people who want a fun not boring time. If you like food and taking photos, you’re in the right place.
