Description
Discovery New York lets you explore a magnificent city entirely at your own pace, while enjoying round-the-clock support from the tour leader who travels from Italy and stays with the group throughout. The tour can be booked from anywhere in Italy, thanks to Ita Airways flights connecting directly with the American metropolis. The hotel is in a supremely central, enviable location overlooking the iconic Times Square, an excellent base and ideal for celebrating New Year. A full day with the guide gives an overall picture of what the city has to offer, while on the following days travellers can explore New York’s attractions at leisure, finding their way around with the help of the Guiness tour leader. The Allure of New York Street Food New York is a mecca for street-food lovers, with a food scene that reflects the extraordinary diversity and energy of the city. Walking the streets of Manhattan is a sensory experience, with carts offering steaming hot dogs topped with mustard and onions, and crisp, salty pretzels that are true symbols of urban culture. Queens, with its multicultural community, offers authentic tacos and burritos from food trucks, while Brooklyn’s Williamsburg is famous for its gourmet food trucks serving innovative, delicious dishes. There is no shortage of ethnic street food either, such as the falafel and kebabs of Greenwich Village, which bring a touch of the Middle East to the heart of Manhattan. The options are endless, from Asian specialities in the markets of Chinatown to the sweets and coffee of Harlem’s street markets. Every corner of the city offers an opportunity to discover new flavours and experience the vibrant culinary energy that only New York can offer. New York street food is not just about food: it is an immersion in the culture and rhythm of the city, offering an authentic and unforgettable gastronomic experience.
