Description
Walk 5th Avenue with an expert guide and see for yourself why New York during the Holidays feels like one of the most magical places on earth. Check out the famous holiday window displays at luxury spots like Bergdorf Goodman and Saks, plus flagship stores such as Cartier, Tiffany & Co., and more.

As you go, you’ll also pass the Plaza Hotel (seen in Home Alone 2), St. Patrick’s Cathedral (New York’s parish church), and Radio City Music Hall, home of the Rockettes and the Christmas Spectacular show. Visit the New York Public Library to see its iconic lions, Patience and Fortitude, dressed up with holiday wreaths before ending the tour at Bryant Park’s Winter Village, where you can shop, grab something to eat, or skate on the outdoor rink. Snap plenty of festive photos and share your New York holiday experience with friends on social media.
