  1. Day 1 NEW YORK CITY

    The Adventure Begins

    Meet your private driver for an airport transfer.

    Embark on a mysterious tour of the Upper East Side and Upper West Side of Manhattan today with your private guide and driver. These neighborhoods have been home to some of the most beloved and the most notorious New Yorkers. As you explore the streets where New York’s old and new money live, your guide will tell tales that will leave you shocked. For example, learn about when beloved actress and heiress, Dorothy Arnold, left her home to buy a dress one morning in 1910 and was never seen again. After weeks of investigators being unable to solve the mystery, rumors and conspiracies started to spread. It seemed the whole city was trying to solve the case, but Dorothy was never found. Perhaps there are still some clues to be found on the Upper East Side. Conclude your tour with a transfer back to your hotel.

    From Michelin Starred restaurants to hidden gems, New York City is a culinary dream. Speak with your Destination Expert for restaurant recommendations, or if you’re already in the know – propose your own.

Meet up with the performer one last time to congratulate them on their performance and take in the backstage atmosphere.
