Varighed

Beskrivelse

Tag med på opdagelse i det originale New York, eller vi burde vel sige New Amsterdam! Vi vil vandre gennem nabolaget, se og lære mere om kendte steder såsom Wall Street, Fearless girl og Charging bull statuerne, og World Trade Center, og mindre kendte steder, så som Bowling Green, Wooldworth bygningen, Canyon of Heroes og meget andet. Vi vil også besøge den gamle kirkegård og to kirker der står side om side med de høje bygninger som downtown er kendt for. Der vil helt sikkert være en masse oplevelser, som I ikke havde regnet med og jeres guide vil på bedste vis introducerer jer til New York's historie helt tilbage til 1600-tallet, således at I afslutter turen med en bedre forståelse af NYC's fortid.

I vil have muligheden for at tage en tur med Staten Island Ferry, og se Frihedsgudinden eller slutte af på 9/11 Memorial hvor I på egen hånd kan tage på museet og/eller en tur op i One World Trade og se byen fra oven. Prisen for dette er ikke inkluderet, men vi kan arrangerer køb af billetter for jer!
