Tours to New York City from Black Bear Campground!
Black Bear Campground is 46 miles Northwest of Times Square. From mid-May to the end of October, we have guided tours direct from the campground. The tours leave the campground at about 8:00AM and return about 6:00PM. You are accompanied on the tour by a New York City licensed guide. Guided tours require advanced reservations. The cost for the tour is $90 for adults and $70 for children 12 and younger. Highlights of the tour include the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Ground Zero, Theatre District, Wall Street, Empire State Building, Times Square, Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center and much more.
Our tours are offered by an independent tour operator not affiliated with Black
Bear Campground. Tours are scheduled rain or shine with a minimum of 6
adults. The tour operator reserves the right to cancel any tour, and change,
alter or modify the itinerary as conditions may warrant. All prices are
subject to change without notice. Tour prices include admission fees.
Gratuities not included.
Manhattan, one of five boroughs making up New York City, is only 2 miles wide at its widest point and
just 10 miles long. Nowhere else in America is so much history, culture, entertainment,
finance and diversity crammed into such a small area. Beside the many usual things to see
and do in the City are many places of which most people are unaware. Did you
know that New York City was the first capital of the United States of America, or that the
majority of Americans either live in New York City or had ancestors who came to America by
way of New York Citys
Ellis Island?
For those who want to tour New York City
on their own, we are not far from the commuter railroad that stops
near the Empire State Building and Ground Zero. From there you can use
public transportation to go to the various sites. Once in the city you can
also take Gray
Line Tours or
Circle Line boat tours.
One can also drive into Manhattan. Tolls and
parking are expensive, and roads are very congested on weekdays from 6:00AM
to 7:00PM. For these reasons, we do not recommend
driving into the City unless you want to see a special event such as an
evening Broadway Show or a night ballgame in
Yankee or
Shea Stadiums, and
you do not mind driving in heavy traffic.
