A Collage of New York City1) Sightseeing
Just like in London, New York City has the double decker busses that take you all around the city. A pass will get you unlimited hop on and off privileges to see some of New York’s great attractions like Rockefeller Center, Times Square, and Chinatown. The Staten Island Ferry is a way to experience a nice ride from Manhattan to Staten Island. The ride is totally free of charge and you can get some fantastic snapshots of the Statue of Liberty while on the water.

2) Museums
New York City is a city rich in culture and heritage. There are so many museums in the city, that you may not be able to see them all in one visit. The American Museum of Natural History, Museum of Modern Art, The Cloisters Museum and Gardens, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, are just a few of the wonderful museums that New York has to offer.

3) Broadway and Off-Broadway Shows
Seeing a Broadway show is one of the most popular activities for visitors that come to New York. Not only are there the award winning shows on Broadway, but there are great shows to see off-Broadway as well.

4) Shopping
New York City is a hub for fashion, and there are areas in the city that have fantastic shops and boutiques. Shopping on Madison Avenue is considered a luxury shopping experience. Barney’s New York, Ralph Lauren, Brooks Brothers, and Calvin Klein are all upscale stores that are located on Madison Avenue. For a more eclectic shopping experience, visitors can head to the New York City neighborhoods of Soho or Tribeca. You will also find upscale shops in these areas, as well as great second-hand shops and discount stores. There are plenty of restaurants in these areas to stop and take a break from all of your shopping adventures.

If you did not get to see everything on your first day in the city, not to worry. The main reason you are staying in a New York apartment or hotel is so you can catch your breath, plan the next day's adventure and then head out for another day of sightseeing in the greatest city.
