24 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.

Change things up with these side-trips from New York City: Philadelphia (Logan Circle, University of Pennsylvania, &more), Coney Island (in Brooklyn) and Fort Washington State Park (in Fort Washington). There's still lots to do: go for a walk through Central Park, enjoy breathtaking views from Empire State Building, walk around The High Line, and appreciate the history behind Statue of Liberty National Monument.

To see photos, traveler tips, more things to do, and more tourist information, go to the New York City road trip site.

In June, plan for daily highs up to 80°F, and evening lows to 65°F.
