Cruise Port Guide
The bucket-list things to do — and the private, expert-led way to do each.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, and the private, small-group, or expert-led way to make it yours — your own pace, real access, none of the crowd.
Step behind the velvet rope of Manhattan's most magnificent Beaux-Arts masterpiece with an expert architectural historian. Uncover secret passages, whispering galleries, and the celestial ceiling most visitors never notice.
Ascend to the 70th-floor open-air observation deck of 30 Rockefeller Plaza for a jaw-dropping 360° Manhattan panorama — the only viewpoint where you can see the Empire State Building in full glory.
Rise to the iconic 86th-floor open-air deck — and optionally the exclusive 102nd-floor pinnacle — of the world's most recognisable skyscraper for a once-in-a-lifetime New York City panorama.
See Manhattan's electric skyline and glittering neighbourhoods by night on Big Bus's open-top double-decker, with a curated evening route hitting Times Square, the Brooklyn Bridge, SoHo, and the Financial District.
Discover the real New York alongside a vetted local guide — hidden courtyards, street-art alleys, century-old delis, and the neighbourhoods that shaped the world's greatest city, all at a private, unhurried luxury pace.
Share a table — and the stories behind it — with a passionate local host in their own New York neighbourhood, tasting the immigrant flavours, hidden markets, and legendary bites that define the city's extraordinary culinary soul.
