Day 4 - New York, New York
This morning we board our Amtrak train to New York, for a
two-night stay in 'the city that never sleeps.' Without a doubt,
the most famous American city, New York is an extraordinary blend
of sounds, sights, and scents, rooted in the diverse culture of
this electrifying metropolis.
On arrival we enjoy a classic New York refreshment, a coffee and
bagel, at our hotel, right in the beating heart of the city - Times
Square. We then take an afternoon guided sightseeing tour, passing
iconic landmarks such as dazzling Fifth Avenue, famous for its
high-end shops, galleries and regal buildings, and Central Park - a
vast parkland of 843 acres, which stretches across no less than 51
blocks through the centre of multicultural Manhattan, dividing the
city's Upper East Side and Upper West Side.
Your evening is free; maybe to catch a Broadway show, or see
some dance, music, or comedy in the nearby Theatre District. If you
are considering this, we advise you to book in advance. When it
comes to dining, there are restaurants aplenty, from American
steakhouses and burger joints to authentic eateries in Chinatown
and Little Italy. New York's only revolving restaurant is a popular
fine dining venue with a view, and it is at the top of our
hotel.
