'Tis the season to be jolly and nowhere is jollier over Christmas than New York. Well, Manhattan if we are going to be specific. Discover just how magical this place can be over the festive time with one of our hosts. Stroll through Manhattan and along Fifth Avenue, stopping by the Rockefeller Centre to see the dazzling Christmas tree and St Patrick’s Cathedral, which will be decorated in all its festive glory. Head off to Central Park to see the famous ice-skating rink then browse a Christmas market and warm up with a hot chocolate or mulled wine.

Our handpicked hosts are culinary connoisseurs and history buffs, bakers and bankers, students and seniors. Like the people who travel with us, they have different backgrounds and interests – but they’re all so passionate about the place they call home, they choose to spend their free time sharing it with the like-minded travelers matched to them.

Your meeting time and place as well as your itinerary are flexible.
