2 Tickets for UN Public Tour

Come and visit the United Nations in the heart of New York City, our tours (guided or group audio tour) offer an exciting opportunity to discover United Nations Headquarters and include a behind-the-scenes view of the Organization at work.

All tours start in the Visitors Lobby.

For security reasons, children under 5 years of age are not permitted on tour.

You can take either a guided or audio tour; both offer an engaging way to explore the United Nations Headquarters:

• Listen to the UN Secretary-General, Mr. Ban Ki-moon, as he welcomes you in a recorded message at the start of the tour.


• Visit the General Assembly Hall.


• Explore a variety of exhibits grouped under the theme “The United Nations: From War to Development”.


• Hear original archival audio clips that bring to life historical United Nations moments.

Due to high level meetings of Heads of State and Government, United Nations Headquarters may sometimes close to the public on very short notice. We regret any inconvenience and wish to assure you that we will do everything possible to reschedule reservations resulting from such closures.
