Tips & Advice

  • Arrive at least 30 minutes before departure if you want to sit with your group, as seats are unassigned and first come, first served.
  • Bring a travel pillow and blanket for comfort on the overnight motorcoach journey, which departs at midnight.
  • Purchase a ticket for every passenger, including children, because the organizer requires tickets regardless of age.
  • Book early because tickets are limited and reservations are sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • Plan a manageable Manhattan route before arrival; the approximately 12 hours of free time are self-directed.
