Beschrijving
Uncover Grand Central Terminal’s hidden gems on a guided tour! See the Whispering Gallery, learn about its backward ceiling, and explore secret spots most New Yorkers don’t even know exist.
Step inside the world-famous Grand Central Terminal and uncover the secrets hidden beneath its timeless Beaux-Arts beauty. On this guided tour, you’ll explore one of New York City’s most iconic landmarks — from its grand Main Concourse to the whispering corners and secret stairways that most visitors walk right past.
Learn how Cornelius Vanderbilt’s vision transformed a simple train depot into an architectural masterpiece that defined an era. Stand beneath the celestial ceiling (painted backwards!), marvel at the four-faced opal clock worth millions, and hear how this terminal nearly faced demolition before being saved by preservationists — including Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis herself.
Discover stories of hidden passageways, and a secret tennis court. Experience the magic of the Whispering Gallery, where a quiet word can travel across the arched walkway, and visit Vanderbilt Hall, the grand event space that once welcomed travelers from across America.
End your tour at the bustling Dining Concourse or Grand Central Market, where you can sample classic New York favorites and watch the rhythm of the city unfold. This tour offers a rare glimpse into the past, present, and hidden heart of Grand Central Terminal — one of the greatest train stations in the world.
