NYC Sightseeing

Only have a few days? Then you’ve got the right guide at your fingertips. If you made a career of nothing but sightseeing New York’s 30-plus square miles, you’d probably still not see everything. We’ve made it easy to pick and choose the sights that best suit your interests and schedule. Visit New York Guide features itineraries of the must-sees.


Home to the Empire State Building, Times Square, The Theatre District, the Chrysler Building, the Flatiron Building, that in 1903 was the world’s tallest, the Visit New York Guide highlights all of these sights plus many more.

Don’t forget Wall Street and the New York Skyride that features hydraulic seats in its theater giving you a breathtaking ride over the city narrated by New Yorker Kevin Bacon. Visit Madame Tussauds wax museum for an afternoon with the stars.

You can’t say you’ve been to New York for the great melting pot experience until you see the Statue of Liberty and visit the Ellis Island Immigration Museum. Detailed tourism information to these sights and many more is just a click away in the Visit New York Guide.

You can just hear the echoes of Saturday night’s most famous words “Live From New York, It’s Saturday Night,” when you take a television tour of NBC’s Rockefeller Center’s Studio.

Brought the family this trip? New York is nothing if not family-friendly. Everyone will be fascinated and awe struck when they roam through Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Times Square. Everyone wanting to take a little walk on the “wild side?” Visit the Bronx Zoo or stroll through the Central Park Zoo. Next, take them back in time to some wilder beasts at the American Museum of Natural History. For more detailed information, come inside the Visit New York Guide.

But, that’s not all for the family. We’ve got the Children’s Museum of Manhattan, the Sony Wonder Technology Lab, and FAO Schwarz to tell you all about! How about an afternoon in Central Park? Visit the Boat Pond and the Central Park Carousel that found its way to the park from Coney Island in 1951.



Speaking of Coney Island. You’re sightseeing isn’t over until you’ve taken a whirl on some rides at the historic amusement park and seen Brighton Beach.



While you’re here, you might as well see Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden just to mention a few. Visit Williamsburg on Brooklyn’s north side and find out why it’s rapidly becoming the “new East Village.”



And, with all this sightseeing, there’s just one more place to go. Visit the coal brick ovens at Grimaldi’s Pizza. It’s not just a place to eat in Brooklyn, it must be seen.
