6 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.

Family-friendly places like Central Park and The Metropolitan Museum of Art will thrill your kids. Go for a jaunt from New York City to Bronx to see Bronx Zoo about 36 minutes away. There's still lots to do: enjoy breathtaking views from Empire State Building, take some stellar pictures from Top of the Rock, get a new perspective on nature at American Museum of Natural History, and take in the pleasant sights at The High Line.
