Columbus Circle
Your tour of Midtown Manhattan begins at Columbus Circle at the intersection of 59th and Broadway. From here, you'll stroll through the Big Apple's biggest attractions, from Carnegie Hall to Rockefeller Center and the Empire State Building! NOTE: In this bundle, each tour is 2+ miles long and takes 1-2 hours to complete. Buy once, use for one year! Ideal for extended visits and return trips over the next 12 months.
Carnegie Hall
Carnegie Hall dates back to 1891, and has been the premier venue for classical music ever since. But this hall doesn't just host classical concerts these days. It's also seen superstars like David Bowie and Jay-Z perform.
Pulitzer Fountain
This fountain honors the journalist Joseph Pulitzer. And yes, he's the man the Pulitzer Prize was named for. Here, you'll not only get to admire the fountain, but also get an explanation of the sculpture atop it.
St. Patrick's Cathedral
St. Patrick’s Cathedral is so huge it spans an entire city block! It houses over 2,800 stained glass panels and an enormous organ with 7,855 pipes. It's also the site of a small crypt, where eight of New York’s Archbishops are interred.
Times Square
No visit to Manhattan would be complete without a stop in Times Square. This iconic square is positively glowing with huge electronic billboards, buzzing with street performers, and lined with one-of-a-kind stores like the strangely fascinating M&M Store. It's a place you won't soon forget!
Bryant Park
This green oasis amid the bustle of the city is a great spot to take a break. It's also a favorite filming location for superhero flicks, including multiple Spiderman movies and Netflix's Jessica Jones series.
Chrysler Building
The Chrysler Building is perhaps New York's second greatest example of the Art Deco movement, behind only the Empire State Building. Its crown, composed of seven radiating arches, is positively iconic, and makes it a fantastic target for photo shoots to commemorate your visit.
New York Public Library - Stephen A. Schwarzman Building
The New York Public Library is the third largesst in the entire world. It boasts over 50 million items in its collection, encompassing 125 miles of shelving. Here, you'll also get the explanation behind the statues which guard this iconic library.
Empire State Building
Perhaps New York City's most recognizable landmark. Towering at nearly 1,500 feet and with 102 floors, the Empire State Building held the title of world's tallest building for 40 years. While it may no longer be the tallest, it's still one of the most beautiful, perfect for photos from a distance or up close. There's even an observation deck on the 86th floor offering unparalleled views of the city skyline!
Grand Army Plaza
Your tour of Central Park begins in the Grand Army Plaza on the corner of 5th and 59th. From here, you'll walk all the way to the reservoir and back, stopping at all the park's top spots along the way.
Delacorte Clock
This clock isn't just for telling time! It's decorated with whimsical depictions of animals playing all manner of instruments, like a bear with a tambourine and a kangaroo with a horn!
Balto Statue
This statue commemorates everyone's favorite husky, who became famous when he brought lifesaving medicine to a remote Alaskan town through blinding blizzards and subzero temperatures. The dog himself was actually in attendance for the unveiling of this statue!
The Mall and Literary Walk
One of the most picturesque spots in Central Park, the Mall is surrounded by lush greenery and dotted with statues of famous figures from history. Among them: the revered playwright Shakespeare and the controversial explorer Christopher Columbus. As you walk, you'll learn more about the various statues and why they ended up here.
Bethesda Terrace
This gorgeous Italian-style terrace is the heart of Central Park. It was crucial to the original design for the park and remains one of the most beautiful places in New York City to this day. It has an upper and a lower section, both of which are simply breathtaking.
Bethesda Fountain
At 26 feet tall and almost 100 feet across, this fountain is impossible to miss. It's topped by a sculpture known as the Angel of the Waters, which was the only statue included in the original design for Central Park. Here, you'll also get a glimpse at Central Park's long cinematic history.
Hans Christian Andersen Statue
This bronze statue honors Hans Christian Andersen, the beloved Danish children’s author responsible for works such as "The Little Mermaid" and "The Ugly Duckling." From here, you might also see model sailboats on the water, as long as the weather is warm enough.
Alice in Wonderland Statue
This large statue of Alice, the Mad Hatter, and the White Rabbit from Lewis Carroll's classic book is a favorite among kids. It was actually designed to be climbed on, and the polished, shiny bronze stands as a testament to how successful this design ended up being.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art
Colloquially known as the Met, this is one of the most famous museums in the world. It boasts 5,000 years of art from all over the world, from European masters like Monet to artifacts from ancient Egypt and beyond. If you're a lover of art or history, this is a must-see spot.
Alexander Hamilton Statue
Alexander Hamilton may have been popularized by the Broadway play, but this monument has been here well before anyone thought to put the man on stage. And for good reason! Hamilton was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, and served as George Washington's right hand man during the American Revolution.
Umpire Rock
Umpire Rock is by far the oldest thing you'll see in Central Park, clocking in at over 500 million years old! It's a hunk of bedrock that workers weren't able to remove when clearing the land for the park's construction, and stands today as a landmark in its own right.
Netherland Monument
The Netherlands Monument might seem like a strange one, but it actually harkens back to the origins of New York City. Here, you'll learn about the Dutch colonization of this land, and how it went from New Amsterdam to New York.
American Merchant Marines Memorial
This strange, unsettling sculpture depicts a drowning man grasping for purchase as another man tries in vain to save him. At high tide, he is completely submerged by water. This memorial commemorates the sinking of the SS Muskogee during World War II.
Castle Clinton National Monument
Built at the beginning of the 19th century, this castle-like fort was originally designed to fend off a British attack. It later became an immigration processing station and today is where you can buy tickets for the ferry to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. If you want to see those landmarks up close, this is the place to go.
East Coast Memorial
A massive bronze eagle watches over this memorial, which is dedicated to the 4,601 American servicemen who died in the Atlantic in WWII. All of their names are inscribed into the memorial's pillars.
SeaGlass Carousel
The SeaGlass Carousel is a huge hit among younger visitors. Instead of horses, this carousel features colorful fish. And instead of moving in one direction, the fish twirl and criss-cross and move about the entire space. Your tour concludes here.
Brooklyn Bridge
Opened in 1883, this iconic bridge almost didn't see the light of day. As you admire its impressive architecture, you'll hear about the multitude of problems which beset the construction process, as well as how engineers finally overcame them.
Manhattan Bridge
As the less famous sibling of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Manhattan Bridge is sometimes unfairly overlooked by visitors. But it's a majorly picturesque structure, and the DUMBO neighborhood actually gets its name from this bridge!
Jane's Carousel
This classic wooden carousel was built in 1922 for an amusement park in Youngstown, Ohio. It has been restored to its original working condition and is a wonderful stop for any youngsters.
St. Ann's Warehouse
These picture-perfect arches are Instagram-famous for a reason. If you're looking for a great photo spot to commemorate your visit to Brooklyn, this is the stop for you. The red brick and lush greenery contrast to make for some truly memorable snapshots.
Cadman Plaza Park
Cadman Plaza is a pleasant green space named for Reverend Samuel Parkes Cadman. As you stroll through this peaceful space, you'll get to know Cadman and understand why he was important enough to name a park after.
Brooklyn War Memorial
The Brooklyn War Memorial features two 20-foot-tall statues, which were among the largest in the city when they were first sculpted. It honors those who fought and died during World War II. Your tour concludes here, just down the street from where it began.
Grand Central Terminal
Grand Central Terminal is a commuter rail terminal located at 42nd Street and Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. Grand Central is the southern terminus of the Metro-North Railroad's Harlem, Hudson and New Haven Lines, serving the northern parts of the New York metropolitan area.
