New York City

A 1,5-hour round-trip transfer from your New York accommodation. This option includes pickup and drop-off in a clean, air-conditioned vehicle at a guaranteed fixed price. The NYC public transportation system is extremely complicated for outsiders and it's usually difficult to hail a taxi during rush hour, so this private transfer can save you a lot of time and energy. Get the ultimate NYC experience, enjoy the views from the 86th- and 102nd-floor of ESB, and travel in comfort in a private vehicle. Book a round-trip transfer with pickup and drop-off service in advance for a piece of mind!

Duration 120 minutes

The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
