trophy_23 Posted July 14, 2011 #3 Share Posted July 14, 2011 When we had one day in NYC (2009 off the Eurodam), we took an 8hr bus tour through HAL. I thought it was great value to see many major sights (WTC Site, Brooklyn Bridge, Top of the Rock Obsetvation deck, etc). It was $89 each and we zig zagged all over Manhattan. Stops included Rockefeller center (with admission to the top), south center seaport for lunch (lunch not included) and the WTC memorial. If you are looking for a great way to see as much of NYC as you can in a short time see if they offer anything like that. The only shopping time was our 1hr lunch stop at the seaport, many shops but mostly souvenir type stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The HOHO is also a great way to see Manhattan and you can get off when you see a good shopping area (like Times Square). http://www.newyorksightseeing.com/tourpage.php?item=DL The green route is the downtown route. http://www.newyorksightseeing.com/map.php You will be docked in Brooklyn. No shopping there at the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
