The skyscrapers of Midtown Manhattan surround the lake at Central Park in New York City. Established in 1857, Central Park is the most visited urban park in the country, with more than 40 million park-goers each year. From the bandstand to the horse-drawn carriage rides to the zoo, the park contains a number of cultural touchpoints that help make it one of the most filmed locations in the world.
Photo by ISEThe heart of the Big Apple is Times Square, the bustling intersection near Broadway where gigantic video screens and electronic billboards keep the lights bright in the “City That Never Sleeps”. More than 300,000 visitors come to these pedestrian-friendly five blocks of downtown New York each day. Times Square is a center for shopping, dining, and sightseeing. Mingle with people from all parts of the planet as they make their way to the “Crossroads of the World”.
The Brooklyn Bridge over the East River is one of the many recognizable New York sites. The first steel-wire suspension bridge ever constructed, the bridge connects the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. Our New York package includes tours of both Brooklyn and Manhattan as we explore the familiar sights and sounds of the country’s largest urban area, home to 8.5 million people.
Enjoy panoramic views of New York City from atop the the Rockefeller Building in midtown Manhattan. Your trip includes admission to the elevator systems that whisk you to the “Top of the Rock” for pristine views of the Empire State building, the Crysler building and the rest of Manhattan.
Until 1980, the High Line was an elevated train line serving the West Side of Manhattan. But it’s now one of the most innovative parks in the world, serving as a greenway and rail trail offfering unparalleled views of the city, removed from the bustling traffic below. Exotic plants and intriguing artworks provide fantastic photo opportunities as you walk the 1.45 mile length.
