The journey, in full
With five diverse boroughs to explore, it would be impossible to discover all of New York in half a day - so with limited time, what is it that you’d enjoy the most? You might like to experience Manhattan and could start at Central Park. To discover a particular local neighbourhood or specific area of New York City, there’s no better experience. With a like-minded Local host by your side who shares your passions, you’ll be able to experience not only the main tourist attractions but uncover a few hidden spots that your Local host will hand-pick for you. Passing this Historic Landmark might be exactly what you are looking for. Stop for a quick bite or coffee break at one of the locals’ favourite cafés or street food markets, a hand-picked place that suits your preferences, budget and dietary requirements; and pop into any shops, galleries or places of interest that you stumble across on the way. Madison Square Park is a good spot to enjoy this. Get to know your Local host, who will give you recommendations for the rest of your trip so you can continue to eat, drink, and see the city like a local; as well as share some practical insider tips for how to avoid the tourist traps! You could end off your experience at this famous site, which changed the world as we know it. We’ll be in touch within 24 hours after booking to find out more about your personalities and interests so we can assign a like-minded Local who can create a bespoke experience for you. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience you can always change your mind about what you want to do. Your Local host may also suggest adjustments or new routes if they feel that there is something just around the corner that you may enjoy, or perhaps if the weather affects your itinerary. Your Local host will also help you to discover the places, things, and stories that you won’t find in a guidebook and that make the city unique.
