15 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.

Venture out of the city with trips to Bronx Zoo (in Bronx), Philadelphia (Independence Seaport Museum, Independence Hall, &more) and Coney Island (in Brooklyn). There's much more to do: go for a walk through Central Park, explore the galleries of 9/11 Memorial, wander the streets of Times Square, and stroll around The High Line.
