Trip Itinerary

Day 1

As Thanksgiving ushers in the Christmas season, you’ll be in the middle of it all with a 5-night stay at the popular Hilton Hotel Times Square on famous 42nd Street.
Day 2

Joined by our entertaining and informative local guide, sightseeing today features Midtown and Downtown with stops at Battery Park, Trinity Church, Wall Street and the World Trade Center site. Dine at historic Fraunces Tavern, George Washington’s favorite restaurant! (Remember this was our nation’s first national capital!) Here you’ll be joined by syndicated theatre critic Peter Filichia to learn what’s hot and what’s not on the Great White Way. In the evening, you’ll have the option of seeing the longest-running musical in theatre history, The Fantastics, preformed “Off-Broadway” on Times Square. (L)

Join your Tour Director for a morning adventure to Liberty and Ellis Islands by subway and ferry. The afternoon is yours for personal exploration.

Dinner at Sardi’s Restaurant is followed by your first included Broadway musical (show TBA following the Tony Awards later this spring). (D)
Day 4

Uptown is highlighted on today’s guided tour, with stops at Central Park, Grant’s Tomb, St. Patrick’s Cathedral and Rockefeller Center (ice skating, anyone?).
