Description:

Get a lay of the land and a feel for the vibrant neighborhoods of the Big Apple on this tour of Manhattan's must-see sights and lively neighborhoods. Ride along the city streets from Harlem to SoHo, and then ferry across the water to tour the most famous American icon—the Statue of Liberty.

An informative guide shares insight into the history and culture of each pocket of the city as you make your way through uptown, midtown, and downtown Manhattan. Ride along bustling 125th Street in Harlem, learning about the artists of the Harlem Renaissance as you pass by the famed Apollo Theater. Hop off the bus and stroll the streets of Greenwich Village, where the counterculture movement of the '60s thrived.

Admire the colorful produce stands of Chinatown, the sidewalk cafés of Little Italy, and the bright lights and commercial commotion of Times Square. Take a break from the urban bustle in the sprawling green space of Central Park, and gaze up at the soaring, Art Deco towers of the Chrysler Building and the Empire State Building—the latter was the tallest building in the world for most of the 20th century.

Window shop as you pass by the luxury retailers that line Fifth Avenue, wave to the hosts of the Today Show at Rockefeller Center, and listen for the bell at the NYSE as you walk the 8 blocks of Wall Street. Your guide leads you to Battery Park, at the southernmost tip of Manhattan, where you step aboard the ferry that shuttles you across the waves to Liberty Island and Ellis Island to explore both landmark sites at your leisure.
