From the Statue of Liberty to the Empire State Building, here are the top 10 places you can’t miss when you visit New York City!

Empire State Building

It just wouldn’t be right to go to the Empire State and not check out the Empire State Building. The 102-story Manhattan skyscraper dates back to 1928 when it was constructed in a race to build the tallest building in the world.

If you’re not a ‘fraidy cat where heights are concerned, catch a breathtaking 360 degree bird’s eye view of the cityscape from the observatory nested on the 86th floor or elevate your experience even higher with an 80 mile panoramic view from the 102nd floor. You can even take the “90 in 90 Tour” where you’ll get 90 minutes of the city’s history in 90 minutes.

A special Sunrise Experience is a real wake-up, bringing all new meaning to the greeting, “Top of the mornin’ to ya!” A perk with this package is that you’ll get to welcome the dawning of a new day from the 86th floor observation deck overlooking the city that never sleeps while sipping on complimentary cups of Starbucks coffee — talls, of course.
