NOLITA
This is how to savor the Big Apple – one tasty bite at a time on the NOLITA NYC Food Tour. It’s an enjoyable 2-hour guided tasting tour through tiny Nolita (North of Little Italy). A bustling, on-the-move neighborhood blending Old World charm and a trendy vibe, it’s one of Manhattan’s gems.

The Met is no ordinary art museum. Of all museums throughout the world, the Metropolitan Museum of Art is incomparable in the vastness and depth of its astounding collection spanning 5000 years of art across all cultures over the entire globe.

New York City is the ultimate metropolis. It’s the global center of finance, fashion, theater, shopping and dining. It’s a magical place, a city of bests – best art, best museums, best restaurants, best theater, best shopping.

The definition of rainy day activities in New York City:  any from a long list of great places in which to become immersed for several hours.

To avoid slogging through puddles and jostling for umbrella space, minimize walking.  Go to rainy day choices clustered in geographic areas of Manhattan. Take a cab; ride the subway, or get around on Big Bus double decker bus tours with hop off/hop on privileges at many stops near must-see places throughout Manhattan. Each offers 1, 2, and 3 day packages with Uptown and Downtown loops.

BOSTON

The best way to travel the just over 200 miles between NYC and Boston for a weekend getaway is by Amtrak train. It takes less time and has far less hassles than driving or flying.
