Going to NYC for a day site seeing trip...need some tips!!? -

I am going on a college trip - being dropped off in Manhanten at 12 and leaving from Mandhanten at 7. That is only about 6 hours. What are some good sites I can see in those 6 hours? I really want to go to empire state building, time square, centeral park. Please give me some more sites I would be able to fit in (probally will mostly be walking) in these 6.5 hours!! And also if possible how far from Manhantan they are.THANK YOU!

The Intrepid is AWESOME!! You ve gotta check it out; but use the Subway walking to all that stuff in 7 hours is impossible. If you do Empire State Building, Times Square, CP, and an art museume or two you ll be out of time before you realize it!

you MUST see the x-mas tree in rockefeller center... it s rather beautiful and iconic... you can catch all of those other sites by taking the 1 or the 9 train up and down broadway...madison square garden is 8th and 34th... radio city music hall is at 51st and 6th.... central park is at 5th and 65th... st patrick s cathedral is a must and that s at 5th between 50th and 51st... the diner where they based parts of seinfeld at is located at broadway and 113th... columbia university is broadway and 116th...the guggenheim museum is at 5th and 89th... moma is at 53rd between 5th and 6th...

College trip? I didn t know Manhattan could be spelled wrong 3 different times in the same conversation. You should vote me the Best Answer, even though I am busting on your spelling...just because I ll tell you how to see some celebrities in NY. Go to the Ed Sullivan Theater any weeknight around 530pm and you will see Letterman s guests on his show. They dont tape on Fridays I think. You can tell friends who u saw when you get back

There are many wonderful places to see and things to do, you can t do it all in 6 hours. However, you can buy a fun pass for about $6.00 and ride the buses up and down Manhattan all day on that one pass. That s the cheapest way to get around. Been there done that.

I would just do the hop on and off bus tour.We just got back from NYC about 3 months ago and I m definitely going back! We were there for 3 days, but I think 5 days should be enough. Get the 3+ day NewYorkPass, it will save you a lot of money! http://www.newyorkpass.com/ -- there s a map and things to do..

You can head over to Rockefeller Center to see the Christmas Tree.I hope this information is very helpful.Good luck
