Itinerary

Day 1 Welcome to New York City!

New York, New York! Play Sinatra as you touch down at LaGuardia Airport. Settle into your hotel then get exploring! Catch the excitement in Times Square all lit up at night or indulge in a slice of New York cheesecake. 

Day 2 New York City

Put your New York Explorer pass to use today and get to the good stuff! This is your ticket into the city's top attractions and experiences. 

Day 3 New York City

New York City is spoiled with incredible museums. Whether you're interested in art, history, or science, there's something for everyone. Consider heading to Museum Mile, a stretch along 5th Avenue that's home to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim, t...

Day 4 New York City - Riverhead

Hop into your rental car and make your way toward your next accommodation on Long Island! Riverhead is known as the gateway to Long Island's wine country and is the perfect place to relax and explore. 

Before you get to your hotel, consider a quick detour in Flanders to see one of Long Island's most delightfully absurd attractions: The Big Duck. 

Day 5 Riverhead

So much to do, so little time! Riverhead is situated at the junction of Long Island's North and South forks which means access to just about everything!

Head to the South Fork to see the Hamptons, soak up the beachy vibes in Montauk, or do some serious b...

Day 6 Depart New York

It's time to say goodbye to New York. Grab that last bagel or slice of pizza before heading to LaGuardia to return your rental car and catch your flight home.
