Brooklyn Bridge Promenade

Place

4.8

Use jet lag to your advantage and visit Brooklyn Bridge at sunrise. It is much less crowded than sunset and far more beautiful in my opinion. Arrive at least 30 minutes before sunrise.

Jane's Carousel

Place

4.7

Jane’s carousel typically opens around 10am but be sure to check timings

Dumbo

Place

Dumbo is magical in the mornings before the rest of the city has woken up. Make the most of it and grab a coffee at an authentic coffee shop.

Springy Burgers & Fries

Hamburger restaurant

4.1

9/11 Memorial & Museum

Museum

4.8

You can gain entry to the memorial and museum via the CityPass or GoCity pass which I highly recommend purchasing for all main attractions - the ticket usually includes 3 or 5.

Statue of Liberty Museum

Museum

4.8

IMPORTANT: Research whether you want to go to Ellis Island & the Statue of Liberty museum, or whether you just want to *SEE* the Statue Of Liberty from a distance on a boat. If it’s the latter - skip this trip as it takes around 3-4 hours and instead use CityPass/GoCity to get a CircleLine sightseeing tour instead.

Friedman's

Restaurant

Friedman’s was the best chain in NYC for GF. Breakfast, lunch or dinner they had me covered!
