There’s something powerful about standing in front of the White House one day, and gazing up at the Empire State Building the next. The journey from Washington D.C. to New York City is more than a transfer between two icons — it’s a dynamic leap into the heart of America’s story, told through skylines, small towns, and unforgettable moments.

TakeTours offers curated multi-day tours from D.C. to NYC, blending comfort, discovery, and seamless logistics — so you can spend less time worrying about your route and more time creating memories that stick.

Why New York? Because One Day Is Never Enough

Sure, you’ve seen NYC in movies — but the real thing? It’s louder, taller, tastier, and richer than any screen can capture. Our tours from Washington D.C. give you time to actually experience New York:

• Cruise past the Statue of Liberty or explore Ellis Island

• Stand at Ground Zero, a place of reflection and resilience

• Climb (or ride) to the Top of the Rock or Empire State Building for skyline views

• Wander Central Park, shop Fifth Avenue, and try local eats in Chinatown or Little Italy

And if you're lucky? Catch Times Square just as the lights switch on.

From Broadway’s buzz to Wall Street’s energy, you won’t just visit New York — you’ll feel it.
