Need help with a 2 day Itinerary

ok so i%26#39;ll be in NYC for 5 days next month, and out of those 5 i planned on buying a 48hr nyc pass. Out of all the things the pass includes, i%26#39;m going to name out only the things i want to do, and maybe someone will help me organize them. the days of the week i have to choose these 2 days will be either on a Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday. Here are the things:





-Museum Of Natural History



-CNN Tour



-Museum of TV %26amp; Radio



-Radio City Music Hall Stage Door Tour



-NBC Tour



-Empire State Building



-Statue of Liberty %26amp; Ellise island Tour



-Madison Square Garen All Access Tour



-Interpid Museum



-The UN Tour



-Central Park ZOO





And last but not least, the ';ALL LOOPS TOUR'; through Grayline Tours. I%26#39;m having a hard time organizing everything, and i%26#39;m trying to make it where i%26#39;m not running uptown, to downtown, etc. thanks for any help on this.

Sounds like you%26#39;re trying to cram too much into too short a time. Way too many tours! I think it%26#39;d be a better experience to explore on your own. Don%26#39;t try to do everyting at once, just pick a couple of neighborhoods and have a fun time.




Hi!



Whoa...that%26#39;s way too much. Not only will you not have time to enjoy any of what you have planned, I don%26#39;t even think some of it is humanly or logistically possible. For example, if you go to the Museum of Natural History (even quickly) that will take you till lunch time. And, to go out to Statue of Liberty/Ellis Island will take a real chunk of the day. At best, you will be back around 1-2pm. The boats take a bit of transfer time. Ellis Island is fascinating, but if you are going to bother to go there, it takes a bit of time to explore.



I don%26#39;t know your interests so it is hard to recommend which you should choose. For example, if you are a big sports fan, maybe try Madison Square Garden tour, if you are into TV/Theatre, the Museum of TV and Radio might be for you, history...try Ellis Island, science....how about Museum of Natural History, military buff....Intrepid. You get the idea. Pick a few that most appeal to you. I%26#39;ve been to NY at least 30 times and have not seen or done everything you listed. :-)



Most of all, leave time for roaming, eating, etc....



Have fun!




thanks for the replies. yea i guess your right, it is sorta a lot in 2 days. keep in mind, i will be in NYC for 6 days, i%26#39;m only trying to cram all this stuff in these 2 days due to the 48hour nyc pass i was planning on buying. its just agervating you cant use the pass for 3 or 4 days.





Im not into science all that much, so i will now zero out the history museum. everything else i%26#39;d like to do, including the double decker. i%26#39;m going to rethink the 48hr pass, and i might just say the heck with it and just buy a couple seperatly. is the double decker all loops tour worth it? thanks.
