14 days in New York City Itinerary

Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.

Do some cultural sightseeing at 9/11 Memorial and Valley Forge National Historical Park. We've included these beaches for you: Ocean Grove Beach and Great Neck Steppingstone Park. Venture out of the city with trips to Lakota Wolf Preserve (in Columbia), Kelly Drive (in Philadelphia) and Duke Farms (in Hillsborough). There's still lots to do: wander the streets of Times Square, take in the pleasant sights at Central Park, admire the masterpieces at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and grab your bike and head to Edgar Felix Memorial Bikeway.
