that's awesome!!!

For Christmas, our children gave us a trip to New York to see the Christmas tree in 2024 because it has always been our dream to see it live once in our lives. We will be visiting New York for 5-6 days in December and are really looking forward to it!

Hello everyone, the time has almost come and we are leaving Frankfurt, Germany for New York. We are leaving on December 2nd with Singapore Airlines. We are extremely excited and looking forward to it. We will stay at the Hilton New York Midtown near Central Park and start our excursions from there. Now I have one more question. Does anyone have an "insider tip" for us as to where we should definitely go? We have most of the typical tourist attractions that you find on the Internet etc. on our to-do list. Thank you very much in advance for any tips and information. I wish you all a wonderful pre-Christmas period. Best wishes from Cologne, Peter.

Have a safe. Trip- I was puzzled by the date of the post but i re read back through it I caught back up. My wife's family is from the Baltimore area but we've never made it to Christmas in NYC- or new years but those crowds are to much for me. Christmas is supposed to be spectacular. Have an awesome trip and an early welcome to America from Florida .

Peter13

Thank you very much, Rasbury. I'm not really into big crowds either, but it will be a once in a lifetime experience for me. It's always been my dream to see it once in my life and so it's about time for us. Best wishes, Peter.

don’t now How long your staying but if you have time a quick ride on the circle line around Manhattan is really cool and informative

I live upstate but was there recently with a visitor from Australia. Free harbor cruise on the Statton Island ferry. Ride over, get off and turn around and back on. Good view of Lady Liberty and lower Manhattan. Go see the big Christmas tree in Rockefeller Plaza, We did an open top bus tour, a bit chilly but was good. 911 museum is a must. John’s Pizza and Carmines Restaurant Times Square we really enjoyed. A few ideas, message me direct for more suggestions if you wish.

Hudson yards observation deck is cool. https://www.tripadvisor.com/AttractionProductHighlight-g60763-d20291800-NYC_Edge_Observation_Deck_at_Hudson_Yards_Admission_Ticket-New_York_City_New_Yor.html
while there take a walk on the high line
Also a broadway show is always good for a bad weather day

Peter13

Thank you GMSLITHOI , will inquire on site. Unfortunately we are only staying for a week . 

Best wisches Peter . 

Peter13

Thanks Ian, yes, apart from the open bus tour and the restaurant, we have all the things on our list. We'll check out John's Pizza and the Camin Restaurant, great. Greetings Peter.
