Ten Places You Simply Must See When Visiting New York City

There are so many places to see when visiting New York, it’s sometimes hard to fit them all in, especially if you’re on a short visit. We’ve compiled this handy guide to the best places to visit in New York to help you along and to enable you to experience the best that the Big Apple has to offer.
 

1) Statue of Liberty


The best way to grab a bird’s eye view of the Statue of Liberty is to hop on the free ferry that sails between Lower Manhattan and Staten Island. You’ll also get to see the famous New York Harbour on your trip too.
 

2) Empire State Building


 
No visit to New York would be complete without heading up to the observation decks on the 86th and 102nd floor of the iconic Empire State Building. Get your camera at the ready because the views are simply spectacular.
 

3) The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met)


The number one art gallery in the entire United States, The Met houses over 2 million works of art from around the world and is truly a wonder.

 

4) Central Park


Take a breather from the city streets and soak up the beauty of NYC’s 843 acres of natural green space. There’s always something new to discover here no matter how many times you visit.
 

5) Brooklyn Bridge

6) Broadway


New York’s famous theatre district is home to 39 theatres and plays host to some of the best shows in the world, performed by some of the finest actors in the world! This is one place not to be missed!
 

7) Coney Island


Hop on the subway and in just 45 minutes you can sit on the golden sands of Coney Island, birthplace of the hot dog. There’s a lovely vintage boardwalk and funfair and the hot dogs are, of course, the best you’ll find.

Soak up the authentic vibes of NYC with a walk around the eclectic Greenwich Village. This place is home to some fantastic bars and restaurants and a wealth of unique shops for those gifts to take home.
 

9) Radio City Music Hall


Known as being the largest indoor theatre in the world, this icon of the city of New York is a must see. Tours last around 2 hours and provide an amazing insight into the world of the stage.

I would highly recommend using SN Travel. They are very efficient and good at what they do. They sourced my flight and put together a nice itinerary which was clear and concise. SN Travel took the stress out booking my own flight

I have been dealing with SN Travel for a considerable amount of time now, especially helping out for family and friends. The service from SN Travel has always been top tier and nothing is ever complicated from the get go. A seamless experience everytime despite how stressful travelling can sometimes be. Nonetheless, J'sade has been a top champ from day one i first made contact with this company. I always recommend him to not just family but also friends. He goes above and beyond and always very informative of options which is what i appreciate also. He is a valuable asset to the company and I wish him nothing but the best in all his endeavours. Thank you🙏🏾
