The Korean guide was really kind and explained things well. It was a useful time. I think our students were really challenged and had a dream.

Impressive and important. We had a very good tour and delicious coffee. The souvenir shop didn't really have anything that suited my taste.

The UN visit was really impressive. The tour was great and definitely worthwhile. Unfortunately some areas were inaccessible due to meetings, but overall it was worth the effort. A powerful and moving place that makes you think.

The visit was very interesting with a pleasant and educational French guide.
Reservation possible online with an assigned slot.
Thinking that there is a passage to be made through an airport type gantry before the visit, try to come without a big bag etc.
To do!

This is a must for any political history nerds. The tour guide was really informative and it was great to explore a working parliament. It's quite reassuring to realise how much work people actually do day and day out to make the world a better place

A must see if you are traveling to New York.
The little extra, the official languages ​​are English and French, so if you are a little Frenchie like me opt for the visit in French.
You will visit a high place steeped in history, with great names who have succeeded one another and who have worked for peace.
Through the visit you will be able to visit the United Nations rooms, take photos (video prohibited) and discuss all actions in the world around aid and peacekeeping.
Nb, be careful when the United Nations says a lot of checks, come with your passport! And not just your QR code

The United Nations Headquarters in New York is a complex of buildings located in the Turtle Bay neighborhood of Manhattan. It is the official headquarters of the United Nations, and is home to the principal organs of the organization, including the General Assembly, the Security Council, and the Secretariat.

The complex consists of four main buildings: the Secretariat Building, the General Assembly Building, the Conference Building, and the Dag Hammarskjöld Library. The Secretariat Building is the tallest building in the complex, and houses the offices of the UN Secretary-General and other senior staff members. The General Assembly Building is where the General Assembly meets each year, and is also used for other major UN events. The Conference Building contains the Security Council Chamber and other meeting rooms for UN conferences and events. The Dag Hammarskjöld Library is the largest international library in the world, and houses a vast collection of books, documents, and other materials on the United Nations and international affairs.

The UN Headquarters is also home to a number of other important features, including the Meditation Room, the Peace Garden, and the Gift Centre. The Meditation Room is a quiet space where visitors can reflect on the work of the United Nations. The Peace Garden is a beautiful garden that symbolizes the UN's commitment to peace and sustainable development. The Gift Centre is a shop where visitors can purchase souvenirs and gifts related to the United Nations.

The UN Headquarters is a unique and important place. It is a symbol of international cooperation and the hope for a better future for all.

The mecca of international diplomacy and multilateralism! Informative artefacts on iconic figures and symbols that have shaped the human experience.

Too difficult to get to. POTUS was coming to speak at the Un. Streets were blocked off. Previous night, the flags were not up.

Unfortunately, it was closed for entry. But the security officer was very helpful and allowed us to click photos as well as move around.

Thank you

United Nations are an important part of global stability and provide our world with exceptional guidance and stability. The tour is informative and extremely interesting. It is located in a picturesque setting with exceptional sculptures from many diverse countries, which are all members of the United Nations.

An outstanding skyscraper with an unbelievable amount of history, the Secretariat building is a must-visit for anyone who's passionate about international relations. All the gifts that the permanent missions of each country have left contribute to a museum-like feeling!
