Welcome to The Big Apple! Get ready for a plentiful family-style dinner at Carmine’s, an NYC institution. The lights of Times Square are mesmerizing and right outside your hotel. It’s the premiere address at the center of it all, and you call it home! Marriott Marquis Times Square – 5 nights (D)
Day 2
Do it the New York way, by subway and on foot. Take the subway to the Financial District. On Wall Street, pause at Federal Hall and say hi to Alexander Hamilton at Trinity Church. After lunch ascend One World Observatory with 360° views. Below, reflect at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum. Back at your hotel, kick your feet up for a bit then take your pick from the many restaurants in the area offering worldwide cuisine. (L)
Day 3
You decide how to spend your day! Join your Tour Director and sail to Ellis & Liberty Islands, visit Grand Central Station, do some shopping, take in a world-class museum or go sightseeing. We’ll point you in the right direction. Come together for an early steakhouse dinner and share your adventures.

Pull back the curtain of Broadway. At a rehearsal studio, ask actors, musicians and technicians about their training, path to the stage or insider gossip!
