Big Bus New York: Premium Hop-On Hop-Off with Night Tour & Cruise

Cover all five iconic New York neighborhoods on a fully narrated open-top bus, then glide around Manhattan's glittering skyline by night on an included harbor cruise — the perfect panoramic introduction to the city.

What to expect

Board the double-decker open-top bus near your terminal and choose your own pace — hop off at the 9/11 Memorial, Central Park, Times Square, or the High Line, then reboard when ready. Live and recorded commentary in multiple languages brings each neighborhood to life. As evening falls, the dedicated night tour illuminates Midtown's neon canyons and the Hudson waterfront. The included harbor cruise then delivers that quintessential view of Manhattan's skyline shimmering on the water.
