Now that Spring’s right around the corner, we’re pleased to announce the re-opening of seasonal attractions in the Big Apple! It’s a great time of year to get out and explore the city when the robins are just starting to hop around Central Park and riding on the outer deck of the Ellis Island Ferry isn’t too, too cold.

First off, check out the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island from the ferry that leaves from Battery Park. The ride is a great way to see the city from a different angle and it takes you right to the Immigration Museum where you can trace your ancestors who may have come through the ports in New York.

There’s also the Central Park Movie Sights Tour, a two-hour walking tour that covers spots like the Boathouse Cafe from When Harry Met Sally, the Bandshell from Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and the Bethesda Fountain recently seen in Enchanted. Indulge in your girly side with the Sex and the City Hotspots Tour, where you can see over 40 locations used in the filming of the hit HBO show.

For the more active set, there’s Bike & Roll rentals, offering bicycles for rides all over the city. You can even take a Central Park or Brooklyn Bridge tour for a guided ride.

Happy Spring!
