New York City-Broadway Lights and Neon Nights

Broadway Shows and the best of New York at night

Day 1	Central Park As you promenade through the heart of Central Park on your guided tour, imagine living in 19th-century New York City.  Learn about the Park's history and hear how its designers, Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, struggled to make their vision our reality. Broadway Show Enjoy the theatre tonight – perhaps Wicked or Grease NY Skyride Fast becoming one of the best attractions in New York and a “must see” item in any itinerary. The only virtual tour simulator in the city takes you on an aerial tour of the city unlike any other.  Join actor Kevin Bacon for a fun adventure where you can feel the sights of New York in special HD theaters equipped with state of the art motion seats and platforms and an 18 foot screen. Empire State Building at Night The Empire State Building soars more than a quarter of a mile into the atmosphere above the heart of Manhattan. On the 86th floor, 1,050 feet above the city's bustling streets, the Observatory offers panoramic views from within a glass enclosed pavilion and from the surrounding open-air promenade.
Day 2	Today Show Watch the live broadcast of the Today Show from ground-floor studios at Rockefeller Plaza Broadway Workshop The Broadway Workshop gives young actors of all skill levels the opportunity to explore their creativity through acting, singing and dance. Programs are taught by working professionals, from Broadway stars to Casting Directors and Agents. Broadway Show Enjoy the theatre again tonight – maybe Shrek or Chicago Times Square at Night Although Times Square in New York City is ordinary by day, it turns into a dazzling universe of flashing neon and huge billboards at night. Yes, Times Square is glitzy, not esthetic, but it's a unique spectacular sight that everyone should experience at least once.
Day 3	Top of the Rock Discover New York in all its forms from 70 stories up at Top of the Rock Observation Deck. A high-speed shuttle sends you racing to the sky. The dazzling multimedia history exhibits are a feast for the eyes and stimulate the minds of all ages. And then there's the view: the city's only crystal-clear, 360° experience of New York.
