3 day trip

Day 1

    • Historical Landmark
    Statue of Liberty

    Jersey City, NJ

    The ferry takes you from Battery Park to Liberty Island, where you can climb as high as the Statue's feet (the stairs to the very top are currently closed)...

    • Scenic Landmark
    Top of the Rock

    New York, NY

    The views are arguably just as good or better from the Top of the Rock observation deck as they are from the Empire State Building, with shorter waits and smaller...

    • Neighborhood
    Times Square

    New York, NY

    Your kids will stare in awe at the massive billboards amid the neon lights, towering hotels, and high-priced souvenir shops that define Times Square, which is Midtown's leading attraction...

    • Doll & Toy Store
    Toys "R" Us

    New York, NY

    A typical visitor report: "We were just passing through Times Square, when my child saw the Ferris wheel, and we had to go in." What? A Ferris wheel? In Times...

    • Hotel / Motel
    Hotel Beacon

    New York, NY

    The Hotel Beacon is notable for many reasons, but the top one may be its location in the residential, tree-lined Upper West Side. A former apartment building that was...

Day 2

    • Science & Nature Museum
    • History Museum
    • Children's Museum

    • Park
    • Historical Landmark
    • Zoo
    Central Park

    New York, NY

    There is so much to do in this 843-acre park that it's practically worthy of a week all its own. To start, there's the Wollman Skating Rink during...

    • Specialty Food Store
    Dylan's Candy Bar

    New York, NY

    Kids, meet candy. Candy, meet kids. Oh, you've already met, huh? When children walk through the door of this tony two-story sugar emporium, eyes light up, stomachs rumble, and...

Day 3

    • American
    • Take-Out
    • Café
    Peanut Butter & Co.

    New York, NY

    Will that be smooth or crunchy? Crusts on or off? You'd think the peanut butter sandwich has been done to perfection in your own kitchen, but come to this cool...

    • History Museum
    New York City Fire Museum

    New York, NY

    Ever visit a museum with the kids and get asked questions that you can't answer? And all the tours seem geared to adults? The New York City Fire Museum is...

    • Sightseeing Tour
    • Boat Tour
    • Boat Ride
    Staten Island Ferry

    New York, NY

    It's easy to forget that Manhattan is an island, and seeing it from the water provides a whole new perspective on it. The iconic Staten Island Ferry is the last...
