Wall Street Walking Tour: The Nasty Women of FiDi

About this Experience

What you'll do:

Experience a walking tour like no other: Nasty Women of FiDi: Power, Persistence, and the Untold History.

Wall Street is known for its bulls, its banks, and its boys' club — but behind the marble facades and market crashes are stories of women who defied the odds, broke the rules, and helped shape the financial world. Your guide is a native New Yorker and trained proprietary trader whose storytelling skills will have you laughing as you visit the birthplace of finance in America.

On this walking tour through the heart of the Financial District, we’ll explore the iconic landmarks — the NYSE, Federal Hall, the House of Morgan — and the traditional stories - Rockefeller, Morgan, Hamilton & Dimon - while also shining a spotlight on the women history forgot: the enslaved women whose labor fueled early Wall Street wealth, the widows and brokers who built fortunes in the shadows, and pioneers like Victoria Woodhull, Hetty Green, and Muriel “Mickie” Siebert who challenged a system designed to keep them out.

This is Wall Street like you’ve never heard it: bold, brilliant, and no longer just a man’s world. Join us on a fierce and fearless journey through the Financial District (FiDi), where trailblazing women made history, shattered glass ceilings, and left their mark on Wall Street and beyond. From investigative journalists to financial powerhouses, this tour uncovers the untold stories of the “Nasty Women” who shaped New York City.

Why we love it for your party:

  • Spend a few hours in the birthplace on New York City hearing a modern and fun version of its history.

  • Grab a drink after the tour at one of the legendary spots where either revolutionaries or Wall Street power players once gathered.

  • Fresh air, fun stories, good vibes.

Dana was a fantastic tour guide, warm, knowledgeable, and full of insight about the history and evolution of Wall Street. She painted a vivid picture of what the trading world was like before the electronic age and brought each landmark to life with engaging stories. The small group setting (just four of us) made the experience feel personal and immersive. The meeting point itself was a hidden gem, so I’d recommend arriving a bit early to explore it. Thank you, Dana, for such an enriching and memorable tour!

What a fun and interesting tour. As a woman with a keen interest in Wall Street and investing in general, I was excited about taking this tour. Dana, our tour guide, blew me away, not only with her facts and knowledge about the history women on Wall Street but with her ability to answer any question we threw at her. Dana has a great sense of humor and kept the tour going at a great and fun pace. Highly recommend.

Dana was so knowledgable and made the tour so exciting! We started right on time, it was easy to find her, and I felt immersed from the start. Even from the beginning of our booking experience, Dana was willing to go back and forth with me about what style/topic/neighborhood could work and she was open to anything! Great way to learn more about NYC for anyone who lives, works, or visits New York!

The Wall Street tour was super interesting and enjoyable! Dana’s personal and family background in the trading world made this even more special and credible as she shared her own stories and experiences. Dana’s delivery was very engaging and had the perfect balance of context, facts, personal experiences and interesting side notes - I’d highly recommend to anyone interested to learn more about this huge part of American history. Bonus pro - I was the only person on this tour and would have expected it to be cancelled as other providers would have. Dana didn’t cancel and went ahead as a 1-1 personal tour!

Dana was a fantastic guide, who followed up with some local recommendations after the tour was over. As a native New Yorker I walked away with a deeper appreciation for my hometown.

Even though I lived in downtown Manhattan almost my entire life, I learned so much fun and interesting facts from Dana about FiDi, Wall Street and City Hall. Lots of amazing untold stories and history about exceptional women. These stories need to be told and heard.

We absolutely loved our Wall Street tour! It was one of the most engaging and informative experiences we had while in New York. We learned so much about the stock market, the history of the Financial District, and how it all connects to the city’s past and present. Our guide made everything easy to understand and so interesting — it wasn’t just a tour, it was a deep dive into one of the most iconic parts of NYC. Definitely a highlight of our trip!

Thank you for this wonderful tour! Coming from a family that is deeply connected to Wall Street, Dana was able to give me truly unique insights into the Financial District. With her passion and expertise, she brought its history to life: from New Amsterdam to the Gilded Age, through 9/11 and up to today. An unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!
