I first went on the Boston New England and New York tour in September 2006.I am re doing this tour now called Canada & New England in the fall with New York add on. I am more than happy to go over old ground as I find the history in Boston, New England and New York very exciting and interesting. The bonus of this new tour is I get to see Canada and hopefully take a ride on the maid of the mist going under Niagara Falls, and I get some free time during the add on to do my own thing.
Comments about NYC: -
There is so much to see and do you will not be disappointed.
Helicopter flight over the Statue of Liberty, my first helicopter flight that was amazing and worth every penny.:P
I managed to get cheap theatre tickets to see a Broadway show Beauty and Beast this was well worth doing, was great to see a show while in NYC.:thumbup:
Shops galore I am not a great shopper but even I was tempted to spend a few!! $.:dodgy:
Central Park is very large and I cannot wait to go back and explore some more of this space I am hoping to take a horse carriage ride this time.:D
Ground Zero when I last went it was haunting and I am so looking forward to revisiting this area to see the memorial and what they have done with the space.:angel:
I visited a firehouse close to ground zero, the fireman were so welcoming to me and were willing to share their stories amazing time.;)
Looking out from the observation deck from the Empire State building amazing views from up there.
Grand Central Station brought back memories of so many films where they have used this as a location like stepping back in time.
Having a meal at night at the Marriott Hotel revolving restaurant and just taking in the night skyline while eating was just fantastic and such a pleasant way to spend an evening. Eating and sightseeing at the same time brilliant.:blush:
I wouldn’t want to live in NYC but as a place to visit what more could you ask for History, Culture, the sights and sounds that make up a city. Tall buildings green parklands NYC has it all and so much more than I have already seen that’s why I am going back to visit the Big Apple.:heart:
If anybody needs any more information please ask.
