Day 1

Arrive in New York City – start sightseeing.

Arrive in New York City and take a private transfer to your stylish hotel in the heart of Greenwich Village. You’ll be within easy walking distance to SoHo, Chelsea, Union Square, Washington Square Park and the subway, so check in and head back out to explore.

New York’s iconic sites are innumerable – from the majesty of the Empire State Building to the greenery of Central Park, the elegant Statue of Liberty, the theatres of Broadway and the engineering feat of Brooklyn Bridge. You’ll have a New York pass at hand throughout your entire stay, so you’ll get to see these sights and many more as it offers access to up to 108 of the city’s attractions.

Day One (7)

Day 2

Explore New York City and Summit One Vanderbilt.

Today you’ll get to explore more of New York City’s incredible attractions, including a ticket for Summit One Vanderbilt. Set atop the tallest commercial skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, Summit One Vanderbilt is an observatory high above Grand Central Terminal with five multi-sensory experiences occupying the top three floors of the building.

Highlights include a spectacular mirrored space spread over two floors, floating orbs that change colour in tune with a light show at night, and transparent glass enclosed ledges offering sweeping views of the city over 1,000 feet from the city streets below. Entry is through the main concourse of Grand Central Railway Station and you can choose a morning or afternoon time slot – allowing you plenty of flexibility for more sightseeing with your City Pass.

In between the sights, don’t forget to try some of New York City’s world-class dining. From classics like New York-style pizza and the best bagels you’re likely to ever have to fine dining establishments and excellent multicultural eateries, you’ll be more than spoiled for choice.

Day Two (6)

Day 3

Continue sightseeing before flight to next destination.

You’ll still have the morning and early afternoon to make the most of your time in New York City before continuing on to your next destination.

If you haven’t yet, use the Go City Pass to visit the renowned Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), Carnegie Hall or the 9/11 Memorial. Or, if it’s a sunny day, have a bite on a bench in Central Park before leaving.

A private transfer will collect you from your hotel when it’s time to head to the airport.
