Manhattan é a clássica primeira paragem. A Times Square brilha sobre o bairro dos teatros, o Central Park estende-se por quarteirões entre o Upper East Side e o Upper West Side, e o Empire State Building, o Chrysler Building e o Rockefeller Center definem o horizonte de Midtown. Mais a sul, o Memorial do 11 de Setembro, Wall Street e a Ponte de Brooklyn ficam perto uns dos outros, e os barcos passam pela Estátua da Liberdade até Ellis Island.
