ニューヨークの旅程：初めての方向けニューヨーク観光3日間プラン

Begin your adventure by getting to know the city while on a hop-on hop-off double-decker bus sightseeing tour. It covers dozens of major sights and sounds that you must see when visiting NYC, all while providing informative and interesting narration. A few of the top sites you'll see include the Empire State Building, Brooklyn Bridge, Wall Street, Madison Square Garden, and many more.

The tour provides a great overview of the city's major landmarks and history while giving you the flexibility to hop on and off at any of the included stops along the way, making this a good option for those who like a little bit of freedom in their itineraries.

This science and history museum is dedicated to preserving and showcasing the history of American military craft across generations. They offer a variety of permanent and special rotating exhibits that highlight specific conflicts or vessels, all with real artifacts, authentic photographs, and behind-the-scenes info. The Intrepid itself is also a National Historic Landmark, so even just a quick walk across the ship is like stepping back in time.

Now, as an exciting bonus, our admission includes the Space Shuttle Pavilion! See the Enterprise, the shuttle that was responsible for so much of the progress made in early NASA spaceflight programs (Mercury and Gemini). There are also several photos and other artifacts as part of this exhibit, so be sure to stay for a while to scope the whole area out.

This comprehensive two-hour NYC cruise is a perfect option for those looking for panoramic views of the New York City skyline. You'll see all the best features and landmarks of NYC, like the Statue of Liberty, Battery Park, the Brooklyn Bridge, the Empire State Building, the United Nations, and more!

Tours run every couple of hours; be sure to confirm your desired cruise time and arrive around 45 minutes in advance to allow for ticketing and boarding. This tour runs only seasonally, so be sure to check on their website (or ours) to see when the cruise is available.

Welcome to the Guggenheim; a work of art filled with works of art! The fabulous, swirling white helix of a building is totally unique in its surroundings of townhouses on the Upper East Side, and within its walls you'll discover even more treasures. Home to the works of Cézanne, Gauguin, Manet, Monet, Picasso, Pissarro, Renoir, and more, it's an impressionist-enthusiast's dream and hosts the finest temporary exhibitions too.

Viewing priceless art always stirs up an appetite, and happily there is the fabulous Café 3 within the museum that has stunning views over Central Park to enjoy while you break for coffee and cake.

If the weather is nice and you're not feeling like roaming around inside, explore the great outdoors with a bike ride through the beautiful Central Park. A Central Park bike tour is an ideal way to get some fresh air and an eco-friendly way to tour one of the city’s most beloved landmarks.

It's also one of the best ways to cover a lot of ground in Central Park and really get a feel for what locals love about this vast green space. Some of the many of the top Central Park attractions you’ll see on your tour include the Cherry Hill Fountain, Strawberry Fields and Imagine Mosaic, Shakespeare Garden, Belvedere Castle, and the Great Lawn.

This attraction is a favorite with adults and kids alike and has something to appeal to every interest and taste. The American Museum of Natural History is filled with natural wonders, historic artifacts, and exciting, interactive exhibits that span a vast array of subjects. Some of the highlights of the museum include its impressive collection of dinosaur fossils, a beautiful room filled with gems and minerals, the Milstein Hall of Ocean Life, and its detailed dioramas of various animal life.

Begin your afternoon with a visit to one of the most iconic buildings in all of New York City – the Empire State Building. Ascend to the 86th floor of the Empire State Building, an architectural marvel, for some of the best views and photo opportunities. In addition to being a fascinating structure, the Empire State Building is also steeped in historical significance.

There’s a lot to offer for architecture buffs, for example, with regards to its art deco décor. Don’t forget your camera! We recommend reserving at least 2 hours for this attraction. Keep in mind that elevator lines will add to your overall time spent at the attraction.

The High Line is one of New York City's hidden gems. It's a beautiful green park made from the remains of an old elevated rail line that runs from the Meatpacking District to West 34th Street. Along the way, you'll pass through the artsy neighborhood of Chelsea. Visitors can choose to walk the entire 1.45 miles or get off at one of several descent points.

There are some excellent options for lunch in Chelsea (including the famed Chelsea Market) if your timing works out to find you in this area around mid-afternoon. The High Line is free for all! Visit the High Line website for more detailed information about what you can see and do along the trail.

If you like, walk the full length of the High Line all the way up to the glimmering new neighborhood of Hudson Yards, where you'll find the stunning lattice-like structure and exciting outdoor viewpoint, The Vessel. This network of staircases reaches 150 feet into the sky and gives daring climbers a whole host of new perspectives of the city.

For comparative purposes, you'll want to conclude your afternoon with the amazing aerial views of New York available from the Top of the Rock Observatory. It’s one of the most popular things to do in all of New York, and it’s truly a unique perspective on the city. The Top of the Rock has three floors of indoor and outdoor observation decks, plus 360-degree views of the city below.

Some of the landmarks you’ll be able to spot from this vantage point include the Chrysler Building, the Freedom Tower, Central Park, and more. We recommend reserving between 1-2 hours for this attraction, although visiting this late in the day will mean longish wait times. If you're only choosing one observation deck on your NYC itinerary, make sure to visit early in the day.

Spend the remainder of your afternoon in one of the best art institutions in the world – the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). Located in an airy and contemporary space, their significant collections of painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, and more are thought-provoking and inspiring.

The world’s greatest artists are all represented at this museum. You’ll see works by Monet, Warhol, Seurat, Dali, Picasso, Pollock, and more. Be sure to check out the gift store before you leave! We recommend reserving between 2-3 hours for this attraction.

 

Hop aboard a ferry to set sail for two of New York City's most famous attractions - the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Liberty Island features the iconic Lady Liberty statue, with tours of the grounds and access to different parts of the statue available through the National Park Service. The Ellis Island Immigration Museum is another awesome attraction on a separate island, offering a chance for many Americans to explore their heritage, and for all to soak up the vibrant history of this once-hectic immigration center. Your pass provides round-trip ferry transportation only; some areas of the Statue of Liberty require separate tickets purchased in advance.

The indoor option for your last day is one of the most important attractions in all of NYC – the 9/11 Memorial and Museum. It’s a poignant reminder of all that we lost in the tragic attacks on September 11, 2001, and reminds us all about the way the world changed after that fateful day. Explore the museum’s several exhibition galleries that study the attacks, honor the lives lost both in 2001 and 1993, and feature several artifacts.

Head down to the southernmost point of Manhattan and enjoy the lovely waterfront views available at Battery Park. There are a number of small attractions within the park, like the Museum of Jewish Heritage and the Skyscraper Museum, as well as some public art pieces like the beautiful sculpture entitled "The Sphere."

Admission to the park is free for all, but some of the activities may require additional costs. We recommend reserving about a half hour for Battery Park if you aren't planning to visit any of the other attractions.

Another one for the art lovers is the beautiful Whitney Museum of American Art. This innovative museum has long been important to New York City’s arts scene for its dedication to living artists, both established and up-and-coming, and for its groundbreaking exhibitions of never-before-seen American art. Visitors to this Lower Manhattan mainstay will get to enjoy their full range of exhibits and programming, which includes everything from twentieth-century painting to works of art made just last year!

This is another one of those can’t-miss landmarks you’ll want to make sure you get a chance to see before leaving NYC. Take a walking tour of the Brooklyn Bridge and the DUMBO neighborhood with experienced and insightful tour guides to get a real feel for the area. You’ll learn about the inspiring and exciting history of this iconic bridge, plus get a chance to explore the boutiques, shops, art galleries, and tasty restaurants in Brooklyn. Advance reservations are required. This tour lasts 1.5-2 hours.
