Q&A
A: This tour is generally suitable for teens, but it does cover some heavy topics like Nazi sympathizers and espionage. It might be best for ages 14 and up, depending on the maturity level of the individual. Just make sure to discuss the themes beforehand if you're gifting it to someone younger!
A: Definitely wear comfortable shoes since it involves a fair amount of walking! The Upper East Side has some nice spots, but you'll be on your feet. Dress for the weather, too—layers are key if you're going in fall or spring.
A: If the weather's bad, they usually reschedule the tour. You'll get an email or a text with options for new dates. So don't worry too much about rain—just keep an eye on the forecast!

Just booked the WWII Spies tour! Can't wait!
So I just got tickets for the Nazis and World War II Spies tour on the Upper East Side! I've always been fascinated by that period, and it’s super cool that they focus on NYC. The tour's free, which is a bonus! I hope the guide is engaging. Anyone have tips for what to expect?
Anyone else do the WWII spies tour recently?
I went on the tour last weekend and it was pretty incredible! Learned so much about spies right in my own backyard. The guide had a ton of personal stories and really knew their stuff. It was a bit long for me, but still worth it. Perfect for history buffs like me!
