Private Driving Highlights Tour of New York (Full Day)
Overview
This is it! The full monty - New York's greatest hits in 8 hours! A private guide and separate chauffeur driver will pick you up from your Manhattan or Brooklyn hotel and take you on a full day adventure through the highlights of NYC! You will see all of the highlights of Manhattan and Brooklyn using a combination of walking and driving and we can tailor the tour to suit any special requests you may have.
By having a private guide and a separate chauffeur driver, you will maximize what you can see in the 8 hours - being dropped right outside the attractions - and walking off road with the guide, whilst the driver drives round to pick you all up from the next spot.
The guide and driver will work together to give you an exclusive and insightful experience of our city.
