11 days in New York City Itinerary

Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.

Your cultural itinerary includes sights like The Met Cloisters and Independence National Historical Park. Get outdoors at Bushkill Falls and Pike's Beach. Change things up with these side-trips from New York City: Hyde Park (Home of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum, &more), Philadelphia (Philadelphia Museum of Art, Eastern State Penitentiary, &more) and Tuckerton Seaport (in Tuckerton). There's much more to do: wander the streets of Dumbo, see the interesting displays at Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, get to know the fascinating history of Brooklyn Heights Promenade, and shop like a local with SoHo.
