Your Ride Awaits
Your luxury experience starts when you’re met inside the airport with a smile by your friendly driver – who’ll be holding a sign with your name on it.
Day 1 - Hudson Valley Here We Come
Your day starts when you hop into your luxury vehicle and leave the city hustle for the colorful Hudson Valley. First stop: the iconic Rockefeller Estate, Kykuit, where you’ll dive into the rich history of the Rockefeller family. Next up is lunch in the charming, legend-filled town of Sleepy Hollow before checking out the stunning stained-glass art at Union Church Pocantico Hills. Finish your day soaking in the crisp fall scenery as you head back to the lively vibes of NYC.
Day 2 - From Chelsea Piers to Central Park
Today starts at Chelsea Piers where you’ll board a vintage 1920s-style yacht for a fall foliage cruise on the Hudson River. You’ll enjoy sweeping views of autumn in New York – from the Upper West Side to the majestic cliffs of Palisades Park – from a cozy observatory or out on the bow.
After your cruise, lace up for a laid-back walk through Central Park with our expert guide. You’ll see New York’s fall colors right in its backyard while checking out the sights and learning all about the history of this infamous green space.
Day 3 - Fall Colors Take Flight
Day three has you catching a ride in a private luxury vehicle at your hotel to Linden Airport for a breathtaking fall foliage helicopter tour. You’ll soar over Manhattan and the Hudson River and past the George Washington Bridge to the Tappan Zee for a glimpse of legendary Sleepy Hollow – all while sipping complimentary champagne as you enjoy the views!
Until We Meet Again
When your unforgettable visit to some of the most iconic places in NYC comes to an end, you’ll be met at your hotel by your driver for your private transfer back to the airport via luxury vehicle.
