New York Sightseeing

New York Sightseeing is exceptional. There is no city in the world that has more things to do and see, for every member of the family. Big buildings, incredible views, special places, historic monuments, and museums, are just some of the highlights. All New York City vacations should include some time doing New York Sightseeing. Our New York vacation packages include over a hundred different New York Sightseeing options that might include the Statute of Liberty, Empire State Building tickets, tours of Top of the Rock, the Met, Central Park and so much more.

New York Sightseeing is all about personal preference. You can see New York by tour bus or Double decker, by boat via yachts and motor vessels, via air on a helicopter and even very special walking tours. Spend two hours, two days or two weeks and you'll only dent the surface of the places you can explore. When you select New York vacation packages they almost are guaranteed to include a great New York sightseeing excursion.

Whether you are planning your very 1st visit or your 10th New York Sightseeing always has something new and exciting for you to see and do in NYC. In fact, the choices and options available from New York Guest can make New York seem more of a challenge then a relaxing vacation. That's why the smartest travelers select from our list of New York vacation packages .

New York Sightseeing is for everyone. Young, young at heart or in-between. Adventuresome or reserved. Here for 2 days or 2 weeks. New York Sightseeing can be a casual as you like or as organized. Let some of the family go on one set of tours and let the others go another route and meet and compare notes. New York has sights that will inspire you, awe you, inform you and enrich you, like no other city in the world.

At New York Guest, we take the guess work out of planning. We help you build an itinerary to suit your budget and interests; we take care of all the details in delivering New York sightseeing vacations. We'll help you choose the best way to experience this great city: by bus, boat, foot or air (or a combination of all four!) Book your New York sightseeing by our convenient online Trip Planner or better yet call and speak to our friendly New York City experts.


Double Decker buses are great in so many ways. First they take you quickly and conveniently to all of the most important neighborhoods and sights in the city. Then you can enjoy the city from the top of the largest buses in NYC along with a group of other friendly visitors. A New York sightseeing trip is never complete until you take a double decker tour. When you purchase your New York Sightseeing tickets from New York Guest the cost is the same as with the bus company. And sometimes we offer Discounts and Specials with our New York Sightseeing and New York vacation packages (ask about our frequent specials). That way when you arrive in the city, you'll be all set to ride the tall double-decker buses cruising throughout Manhattan. And one more reason to take a NYC double decker bus tour is you get to know the city very quickly; get to know which places and sites you want to see in more detail. These Hop-on/Hop-off bus tours cover a lot of ground.

And that's only the start. New York Sightseeing bus tours include those in escorted private coaches and vans, others to specific destination for shopping or touring and, of course, there are private charters for families and groups. If you would like us to customize a tour, in just about any language, please contact us, otherwise please see our Trip Planner for detailed descriptions and booking instructions.


New York Sightseeing also means seeing the city form the air. There's nothing like it: soaring above the greatest skyscrapers in the world, peering down at the surprising expanse of Central Park, and seeing New York City landmarks like never before on one of our New York Helicopter tours. A NYC helicopter ride is an experience unlike any other, and one that you will remember for the rest of your life. And it is important to take your New York Helicopter tours sooner then later as air traffic restrictions will reduce the number of flyers to only a fraction of the previous passenger limits. To book your New York Sightseeing helicopter ride over Manhattan, visit our Trip Planner or call our helpful New York City experts.


Many visitors to Manhattan are surprised to learn that of the 5 boroughs that comprise NYC, four of the boroughs (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island) are islands just off of the mainland. Only the Borough of the Bronx is on the mainland. With New York Sightseeing tours we always recommend a leisurely cruise around the island of Manhattan. It is a way to see the sights of Manhattan from a different perspective, see several of the bridges that connect the city (Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge), view the Statue of Liberty and see the 'island' boroughs.

Manhattan island is bordered by three great rivers: the Hudson River (named after Henry Hudson), Harlem River (a name traced to our Dutch settlers) and East River (that leads all the way to Long Island, Boston and beyond), New York Sightseeing provides many cruising options to enhance your New York sightseeing itinerary. Select from excursion boats with harbor cruises as short as 30 minutes or as long as 4 hours; or choose our popular dinner and dancing cruises for one of the most romantic ways to enjoy the city skyline. Another wonderful choice is a sunset cruise aboard either a motor or sailing vessel. Visit our Trip Planner for a list of many of our harbor cruising options.

New York Sightseeing is included in many of the wonderful other programs and packages available from New York Guest like: Broadway Packages, New York City vacations, Empire State Building tickets, New York Christmas travel, New Years Eve New York, New York Helicopter tours, New York Hotel deals, New York Hotel packages, New York travel deals, New York vacation packages and NYC vacation.
