Day 1

Start off your trip with an adventure through Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum – there’s nowhere else in the world you can meet your favorite celebrities and supervillains all in one place! From Queen Elizabeth to King Kong, there are endless selfie opportunities. You’re probably ready for a bite after all that posing. Walk off your lunch at the Empire State Building where you’ll have a fully immersive experience and breathtaking view when you reach the 102nd floor. Finish out the day with dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square where you’ll have your senses (and tastebuds) rocking and rolling with great food, drinks, and memorabilia. 

Day 2

Grab one of New York’s famous bagels and enjoy the ferry ride to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, a symbol of American immigration and filled with your very own family history. After checking out your ancestry records, take a break for lunch before heading over to the 9/11 Memorial Museum. Gain a deeper understanding of what happened on 9/11 and how it’s affected thousands of lives through compelling artifacts and stories. After a day filled with historic landmarks, Ellen’s Stardust Diner will hit the spot with the best diner food in the country…and a singing wait staff (yes, we’re totally serious)!! If those tunes weren’t enough, end the night with one of New York’s world-famous Broadway shows for a once in a lifetime theater experience. 

Day 3

Make sure you get some breakfast fuel before heading over to the American Museum of Natural History. From T-Rex toes to flying through a virtual universe, go beyond your textbooks here (because history CAN be cool)! After recharging during lunch, your students will be in awe at the legendary NBC Studios where they can go behind-the-scenes of favorites like Saturday Night Live and The Tonight Show. They’ll be the star of the show learning about TV scriptwriting, production and more! But TV stars need their relaxation time – Central Park is the perfect spot to end your trip where you can reflect on all your experiences in one of the most beautiful parks in the city!
