New York By Land & Sea

OVERVIEW

Enjoy two revealing perspectives of New York by taking in the considerable sights on the way to South Street Seaport and then by cruising the harbor, where the city’s dramatic skyline really comes into view. During the driving portion of the tour, the commentary will describe neighborhoods such wonderfully creative Greenwich Village and attractions such as the High Line and Little Island. Upon reaching the 18th-century seaport, you will begin a leisurely cruise around the harbor, following a route that affords extraordinary views of landmarks such as the Empire State Building and the One World Trade Center. You will also see neighboring New Jersey and Ellis Island. Still, the highlight is passing directly in front of the State of Liberty for an unforgettable view of what may well be New York’s most recognized symbol.
