Manhattan es la primera parada clásica. Times Square brilla sobre el barrio de los teatros, Central Park se extiende varias manzanas entre el Upper East Side y el Upper West Side, y el Empire State Building, el Chrysler Building y el Rockefeller Center definen el perfil de Midtown. En el sur, el Memorial del 11-S, Wall Street y el puente de Brooklyn están muy cerca unos de otros, y los barcos pasan junto a la Estatua de la Libertad hasta Ellis Island.
