About this activity

Take a bite out of the biggest apple in the world - welcome to New York City! Accompanied by our vibrant local guide, spend the day exploring this amazing city like the New Yorkers do - by foot and subway. Maybe hop into a famous yellow taxi if you want.

Uncover the history and hear the stories about this city, its people, its iconic architecture - no stone will be left unturned.

There is beautiful Central Park and Grand Central, the largest railway station in the world. There are the Rockefeller Center, Trump Tower, the Empire State Building. Stroll down famous Broadway, the sparkly theater district, and Fifth Avenue with its upscale high fashion boutiques.

We'll work our way south exploring Greenwich Village with its Bohemian past. Discover how the many immigrants have shaped this incredible city in Chinatown and Little Venice before hitting Wall Street and Ground Zero, a powerful and moving stop.

Soak it all up in the city that never sleeps!
