Sightseeing Night Tour by Open-top Bus with Live Guide
Overview
Discover the city that never sleeps with this immersive experience. It's the perfect way to see the best sights and sounds of the Big Apple. With a 360-degree view from the top of the bus, you'll enjoy stunning views of iconic landmarks such as the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, and the Brooklyn Bridge.
Let our live guide share fascinating insights into the city's history and culture with you, as well as insider tips for the best places to eat, shop, and explore.
As the sun sets over New York City, experience a new perspective of “The City That Never Sleeps.” See the bright lights of Times Square, then head downtown toward the illuminated Empire State Building and historic Flatiron Building.
Cross the Manhattan Bridge for eye-popping views of the city skyline, great for photo ops! Finish the tour heading up the Avenue of the Americas with views of Macy’s Department Store and Radio City Music Hall. You haven’t seen the Big Apple until you’ve seen it at night!
