Highlights
Itinerary
Day 1: Start New York
Location: New York City
Accommodation Name: Moxy NYC Times Square (multi-share) (or similar)
Meals Included: Dinner
Welcome to New York! What better way of starting this amazing trip than visiting the Statue of Liberty? We've got a full day of sheer NYC exploration ahead of us. We're talking Hudson Yards, the Highline, Grand Central Station, and even a visit to the World Trade Centre.
Day 2: New York
Location: New York City
Accommodation Name: Moxy NYC Times Square (multi-share) (or similar)
It's time to head across the bridge and get exploring Brooklyn. Made famous by Girls, Gossip Girl and Brooklyn Nine-Nine, this borough is the real deal.
Day 3: New York
Location: New York City
Accommodation Name: Moxy NYC Times Square (multi-share) (or similar)
We have a free day to explore and there's still one bit of the city we haven't seen - Central Park. And what better way than with a bike tour? Or maybe you'd like to take a tour of the LGBTQ+ historical hotspots in the city! In the evening, you'll have the chance to catch a breathtaking Manhattan sunset (from a yacht!) and cheers to what's been an incredible start, but there's still plenty more to come!
Day 4: End New York
Location: New York City
Meals Included: Breakfast
Start your day off like a local with an American breakfast at a New York Diner, then it is time to say goodbye to your crew. It's been a blast, but all good things must come to an end. Want to keep going? Why not try New York to Miami by train?
