New York City with optional 'MJ' and 'Hamilton'

Tuesday, June 10 – Thursday, June 12

Enjoy three days exploring the NYC sights from our hotel located in the heart of the theatre district with an included dinner at Ellen’s Stardust Theater, a classic New York Pizza lunch, a narrated cruise around Manhattan, and the option to see the Broadway Musicals, “Hamilton” and “MJ”.

DAY 1 – We’ll arrive in the city at midday and stop for a full lunch at John’s Pizza in Times Square. After lunch, we’ll drop off our luggage and carry-on bags at the Hampton Inn NYC Times Square Central. The afternoon and evening are yours to enjoy independently. Optional: Purchase our tickets to “Hamilton” at the Richard Rogers Theater. Winner Of 11 Tony Awards Including Best Musical, Best Score, Best Book, And Best Direction. Hamilton is the epic saga that follows the rise of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton as he fights for honor, love, and a legacy that would shape the course of a nation. (L)  

DAY 2 – Enjoy the day on your own in the city. Your tour director will have suggestions and maps on the bus. Visit some of NYC’s great museums, take a hop-on-hop-off tour, get a ticket at the ½ price TKS ticket booth in Times Square, browse the shops on 5th Avenue, visit the 9-11 Museum or cruise to the Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island – NYC has endless possibilities for sightseeing! We’ll meet for a delicious dinner at Ellen’s Stardust Diner, a retro 1950’s theme restaurant with memorabilia and singing waitstaff. Optional: purchase our tickets to “MJ: the Musical” at the Neil Simon Theater. Winner of 4 Tony Awards, MJ tells the story of one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Centered around the making of his 1992 Dangerous World Tour, MJ goes beyond the singular moves and signature sound of the star, offering a rare look at the creative mind and collaborative spirit that catapulted Jackson into legendary status.

DAY 3 - Begin your morning with a walking tour of Chelsea Market and the High Line. We’ll start in the world-famous Chelsea Market, an abandoned factory converted into the city’s best food court. Then climb up to the gray steel truss of the High Line, a park built atop an elevated railway, running for over a mile up the West Side. View unique art installations, urban meadows, and incredible vistas weaving between and through buildings. Bring your camera! Next, we’ll head south as your guide introduces you to the Meatpacking District. This industrial area was reclaimed first by the counterculture of the 1980s, then later by New York’s wealthy elite. Marvel at some of Manhattan’s most iconic architecture, like Frank Gehry’s glittering glass curtain design for the IAC Building and the famous art deco skyscraper, the Empire State Building. As you walk, you’ll hear about the homes lost in New York’s real estate boom, the architecture preserved almost by accident, and a city that’s constantly reinventing itself. Explore this neighborhood in flux, and witness firsthand the ever-changing identity of NYC. You’ll have time for lunch on your own in Chelsea Market before we board our 90-minute cruise around Manhattan. Head down the mighty Hudson River, past Hudson Yards and Little Island, gliding by the towering One World Trade Center, past Ellis Island until you are just feet away from the Statue of Liberty. Experience breathtaking views of lower Manhattan before quietly slipping under the Brooklyn, Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges for a short journey up the East River before returning to Pier 83 in midtown Manhattan. After our cruise we will depart for the Cape. (B)
