After breakfast you’ll commute like a real New Yorker when we ride the subway downtown. We’ll hop off near Ground Zero and begin a tour to pay our respects to those lost on 9/11, beside the flowing waters of Reflecting Absence.

After, our coach will bring you to Bryant Park, not far from our hotel, to explore these wonderful Christmas markets. (B)
From our centrally-located hotel, we’ll head out on a walking tour through Rockefeller Center (see the Christmas tree and skating rink) and by St. Patrick’s Cathedral, ending at Grand Central Terminal. Eat your way through the most famous train station in the world while learning about its amazing history. Then check out the Grand Central Holiday Fair afterwards. (B, L)
