Manhattan

The first stop is the High Line Park.

The energetic tour guide will also reveal some local stories that High Line Park hides. The next destination will be at the former home of the National Biscuit Company, which is a hotspot for food lovers with locals' favorite bakeries, bars, and shopping boutiques. The historical background of the place will give you a better understanding of why this place is unique in its own way. While enjoying the best food, take a look at the art and design of the district, which features fashion and vintage culture.

Hudson Yards

Explore the mini-city inside the Manhattan-Hudson Yard. It is the largest private real estate development in the USA. Here you can enjoy the Vessel construction, which looks like a honeycomb and rises 16 levels, consists of 154 flights of stairs, 2,500 steps, and also offers 80 climbing landings to visitors.

The Shops & Restaurants at Hudson Yards

The brand-new neighborhood, Hudson Yard, which is designed in a shiny, dystopian style, is a top favorite place to take amazing pictures for Instagram. The go-to favorite is New York's skyline, and for New Yorkers, this construction looks like a waste can. Nevertheless, some tend to consider the Vessel as New York's version of the Eiffel Tower. One thing is clear. The pictures from this place are worth climbing since the various outlook points open the view on the Hudson River and the dreamy sunsets will forever be remembered. Learn some incredible stories from your guide.

The High Line

Chelsea Market

After crossing the High Line, the second best attraction in NYC is Chelsea Market, where the food variety and history of the place feature incredible insights and stories. Enjoy delicious cuisine from all around the world with a breathtaking view of NYC from the High Line district. The history of the place is something to remember. For example, originally this area was residential, and markets have existed since the 1840s. People moved to tenements in the Meatpacking District in the 1820s when they escaped the epidemics that were in the main area of NYC. Boutiques, bars, foods, and activities such as a slice of Sicilian-style pizza from Filaga, a bakery, and vegan options are included in the tour.
