TourContrasts of the New York Tour

1. Harlem

We'll head to Harlem to learn about its history and two renaissances. We'll pass by the Cotton Club, the Apollo Theater, Martin Luther King Boulevard, and the famous Brownstone Houses.

2. Bronx

We will continue our route to the Bronx borough to make our next stop at Yankee Stadium, New York City's most famous baseball team.

For movie lovers, the Joker steps will be one of the best spots on this tour to take a photo of the film's location. We'll continue our journey to Grand Concord Avenue and then head towards the South Bronx, where we'll see true works of art. There, you'll find the most famous graffiti, each with its own unique and interesting stories. We'll make a few stops for photos.

3. Queens

Leaving the Bronx, we'll head to Queens, another New York borough. It's the largest and most multicultural neighborhood in New York City. We'll enter Malba, an upscale gated community and one of the most expensive outside of Manhattan.

We'll head to Flushing Meadows Park, which is to Queens what Central Park is to Manhattan. There, we'll see the Mets Stadium, the Yankees' rival team. We'll also admire the National Tennis Complex, home of the US Open, and the globe from the film Men in Black.

We leave Flushing Meadows Corona Park and head down one of Queens' main avenues (Roosevelt Avenue), where we can see the immigrant culture represented in each of the shops along the avenue. We'll pass Little India, home to the largest concentration of Hindus in New York City. We'll continue our tour to the borough of Brooklyn.

4. Brooklyn

We'll enter the borough of Brooklyn, where we'll visit New York City's Jewish Quarter. Williamsburg, the neighborhood with the largest concentration of ultra-Orthodox Hasidic Jews, will be the final stop. Concluding this visit, we'll head to the Manhattan Bridge, where we have two options.

5. Choose the end of the tour

If you decide to get off near the Brooklyn Bridge, you can visit Dumbo and take a photo on the popular Washington Street with the Manhattan Bridge in the background, have lunch at the famous Grimaldi's Pizzeria, and then walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to enjoy panoramic views of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty.

Or you can continue with the group to Chinatown and Little Italy, where our tour ends.
