| New York City Travel |
| Vibrant and exciting, there's nowhere quite like it. So much to discover one visit is never enough. With a vitality and lust for life, New York is definitely a heady cocktail of sights and sounds. From top class shows on Broadway and elegant stores on Fifth Avenue to the oasis of Central Park, there is nowhere like it on Earth. One of the most instantly recognisable and famous cities in the world, visit the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building and Ellis Island. Tour historic Harlem, see Greenwich Village and really discover the 'Big Apple'. As you would expect the shopping is fantastic, this is the place where the phrase 'shop til you drop' was born. With such an array of fabulous sights, sophisticated restaurants and fascinating museums it's no wonder they say it's so good they named it twice. Book early if you are planning a Christmas shopping trip, hotels fill up fast. |
