Megametropolis New York: The Edition

Your tour guide will pick you up after breakfast. By SUV, you will discover well-known and new trendy districts: Greenwich Village, SoHo, the Meatpacking District, the artists' quarter of Chelsea, Little Italy, China Town or the banking district around Wall Street. No matter where you are: There are new things to discover everywhere. Visit a different restaurant every evening, enjoy the city's colourful bar culture and venture into the glittering clubs of Manhattan. Marvel at the creative use of historic spaces: where yesterday an industrial building lay derelict, today artists' studios have moved in. Or the High Line Park: a kilometre-long green oasis on the pillars of a former elevated railway line. Stroll with the New Yorkers in the greenery high above the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the fantastic view. A visit to St Paul's Chapel, the oldest church in Manhattan, and a gallery visit are also part of your exclusive tour. In the evening, a gourmet dinner awaits you at the legendary "River Café" in Brooklyn. The location of the restaurant at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge is unique. Not only will you be spoilt with exquisite delicacies here - the evening view over the East River to the brightly lit New York skyline is also unforgettable.

This morning you will visit the One World Trade Centre, which opened in 2014, with its 102nd floor observation deck. The breathtaking view of the skyline is unforgettable. You will then visit Ground Zero, the former site of the World Trade Centre. Today, the site of the world-changing catastrophe of 2001 radiates an intense feeling of togetherness among all people - you will feel it. After this memorable visit, you can decide for yourself what you would like to see or leave the rest of the day to us. Enjoy a relaxing walk across the architecturally unique Brooklyn Bridge with probably the most famous view of Manhattan. In Brooklyn Heights, explore the Dumbo Arts Centre, Mohammed Ali's famous boxing club "Gleason's Gym" just around the corner or the old fairground of Coney Island in the south of Brooklyn. In the afternoon, you can admire every exciting detail of the city from above on a helicopter tour. If you like, a jazz dinner awaits you in the evening at the "Red Rooster" in Harlem. Once you've been infected by the sounds of this music, you can then go on a jazz tour until the early hours of the morning to discover the hippest clubs. Are you more of a sports fan? Then watch an exciting baseball match in the south of the Bronx and cheer along with the fans in the Yankee Stadium. Whatever you do, you'll love the endless possibilities.

After a good night's sleep and an enjoyable breakfast, today is at your leisure. Have you always dreamed of going on a shopping spree in New York? Then fulfil this dream and take a stroll along the famous Fifth Avenue. Experience New York fashion and lifestyle up close on this world-famous mile. Or would you prefer to enjoy some nature? Then Central Park is the place for you. This idyll in the middle of the skyscrapers is the city's largest and oldest park and, at four kilometres long and covering an area of 340 hectares, is an exceptional recreational area away from the noise and hustle and bustle. You can easily explore the "green lung" by bicycle rickshaw. Several lakes, extensive meadows, shady trees and cosy benches invite you to take a break anywhere in the park. For lunch, we recommend fresh oysters in the legendary "Grand Central Oyster Bar & Restaurant" in the vaulted cellar of Grand Central Station. The city's many renowned museums are also worth a visit. For example, the unmistakable spiral-shaped Guggenheim Museum, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) or the Whitney Museum of American Art and dozens of other museums offer something for every taste in art and culture. We can also arrange a private tour for you on request and organise transfers. In the evening, the MET, New York's world-famous opera house, or one of the many musicals on Broadway, will entice you into rousing and moving performances. In our opinion, you must experience the fascinating world of opera, theatre and shows during your visit to New York. For dinner, we recommend the award-winning restaurant "Eleven Madison Park", which is one of the best in the world, or a typical "New York steak" in one of the many outstanding steak houses in the city, such as "The Capital Grille" or "Keens".

Enjoy your breakfast and use the morning as you wish. Visit a jazz concert in Harlem, for example, in Marjorie Eliot's private flat - a unique experience. She has been organising jazz concerts in her living room every Sunday for 20 years. Flat 3F at number 555 on Edgecombe Avenue is sparsely furnished: There are folding chairs in the living room, hallway and kitchen - visiting artists, friends, New Yorkers - and you! An absolute highlight and a musical treat not to be missed. Alternatively, you can spend your time above the rooftops of New York: Enjoy the breathtaking view of the city skyline from the roof of the Rockefeller Centre. In the afternoon, a limousine will take you to the airport. Your return flight with United Airlines, Swiss, Lufthansa or Austrian Airlines non-stop to Europe, with a flight duration of around 8 hours, departs in the evening.

Arrival in Germany in the morning.
