Overview
Enjoy New York's number one attraction in style, in a private tour with a friendly local who will take you to wonderful hidden corners with the best skyline views, at an affordable price. The panoramic views of Manhattan's skyline are legendary. They should be at the top of the to-do lists of any visitor.
The genius of man and the wonders of nature working together to create a unique spectacle. We will appreciate the views from across the imposing Hudson River, facing Manhattan West Side, which offers by far the best skyline sights. During a three-hour tour, we will explore a magnificent 19-mile waterfront and get a taste of the charming neighborhoods on the Hudson's banks, including Hoboken and Jersey City.
The tour can be customized to include attractions such as the wonderful Liberty Park, with views of the Statue of Liberty from a short distance, and the Empty Sky 9/11 Memorial. No other tour offers such a comprehensive exploration of the skyline.
