Walking tours cover ground zero at the 9/11 Memorial, Midtown's Art Deco skyscrapers, the High Line, Greenwich Village and Brooklyn Bridge. Hop-on hop-off buses loop between the Empire State Building, Times Square, Central Park and the Statue of Liberty ferry terminal, with 24-hour and 48-hour passes. Helicopter tours lift off from the Downtown Manhattan Heliport for aerial views of the skyline, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park and the Brooklyn Bridge.

Walking tours
The 9/11 Memorial and Ground Zero walking tours are the most popular guided walks in New York. Small-group tours cover the memorial pools, the Oculus, the Survivor Tree and the story of the site from a local guide. Combo tickets pair the walking tour with skip-the-line entry to the 9/11 Museum. Midtown walking tours take in the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, Grand Central Terminal, Times Square and Bryant Park. Hudson Yards tours include Edge observation deck tickets.
Bus tours
Big Bus operates New York's main hop-on hop-off sightseeing route, covering Uptown, Downtown and Brooklyn loops on open-top double-decker buses. Passes run for 24 or 48 hours and include audio commentary. Combo packages pair the bus pass with Empire State Building tickets and Circle Line cruises for a full-day NYC experience.
Helicopter tours
Helicopter flights depart from the Downtown Manhattan Heliport at Pier 6. Standard tours run 12 to 15 minutes and cover the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, One World Trade Center, the Brooklyn Bridge and Central Park. Extended 20 and 30-minute tours add the George Washington Bridge, Yankee Stadium and the Intrepid. Manhattan Helicopters and NY Helicopter both operate year-round.
FAQ
Frequently asked
Quick answers on booking, access and what to expect.
The 9/11 Memorial and Ground Zero walking tour is the most popular and highest-rated walking tour in New York. A local guide covers the memorial pools, the Oculus and the history of the site. Combo tickets add skip-the-line entry to the 9/11 Museum. Midtown walking tours are the best option for first-time visitors who want to cover the main landmarks in a few hours.
For first-time visitors, yes. The Big Bus route covers all the major Manhattan landmarks and you can jump off at any stop to explore. A 24-hour pass costs less than a few taxi rides and gives you an overview of the whole city. For repeat visitors who know their way around, the subway is faster and cheaper.
Standard helicopter tours run 12 to 15 minutes and cover the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, One World Trade Center and Central Park. Extended tours run 20 to 30 minutes and add the George Washington Bridge, Yankee Stadium and more of the outer boroughs. All flights depart from the Downtown Manhattan Heliport at Pier 6.
Spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November) offer the best weather for walking and bus tours. Summer is busiest with the longest days but temperatures above 30C can make open-top buses uncomfortable. Winter has the shortest queues and holiday lights, but bundle up for outdoor tours. Helicopter tours run year-round in all weather except heavy fog or storms.
Recommended for helicopter tours (they sell out, especially weekend sunset slots) and for 9/11 Memorial walking tours during peak season. Hop-on hop-off bus passes can usually be bought same-day but are cheaper when pre-booked online. Walking tours of Midtown and Brooklyn typically have good availability.
