From our starting point, we board our minibus and travel approximately three miles south along Fifth Avenue, passing the gilded shops of Fifth Avenue, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, New York Public Library, Rockefeller Center, the Empire State Building, Madison Square Park, and Flatiron Building. Our rolling begins with prestige and power, rolling toward protest and activism. Hard stop at Washington Square Park.

Where we began with prestige and power, we have rolled into protest and activism. Washington Square Park is a place of protest, performance, and possibility. Guests hop off to explore the area that has shaped the city’s voice for generations. Beautiful photo op underneath Washington Square Arch.

Riding through the Lower East Side, Fifth Avenue feels geographically close yet visually distant as we travel along Third Avenue. This neighborhood reflects the formative years of tenement life and the waves of resistance that followed, where density, immigration, and activism reshaped the city.

Following our bridge crossing to Brooklyn, our second stop is DUMBO. Before our guided walk begins, we pick up some cheese slice fuel at L&B Spumoni Gardens on Old Fulton Street (included in price of ticket). Our guided tour visually highlights the Manhattan skyline, surrounding waterways, and the bridges that carried New York City from its industrial past to the present day. On a clear day, see the Empire State Building perfectly framed by the Manhattan Bridge.

Returning to Manhattan via the Manhattan Bridge, we make our final drop-off in Hell’s Kitchen. Our designated route is designed to offer guests a different perspective of the city, traveling along the west side including the West Side Highway or streets west of Sixth Avenue. The exact route is determined by traffic conditions and street closures. Anticipated drop-off is 50th Street and 8th Avenue, walking distance to Times Square.
