Holiday Tours offers trips to New York City throughout the year. Prices range from $649 to $1299 and depend on the time of the year, the length of the trip, which guided tours are offered and the accommodations. Most of the trips last from three to five days. Several of the tours offer lodging in New Jersey to keep the prices in check. In the summer, there is a tour that includes a New York Yankees Major League Baseball game. Tours during the winter holiday season are particularly popular. A Christmas "special" includes a ticket to see the world-famous Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall.
Christian Tours offers 20 different tours to The Big Apple, including a "Mother, Daughter, Girlfriend Getaway," an "East Coast Baseball Fling" and a "Theater Spectacular." Its "New York Holiday and Miracle of Christmas" tour last five days, and combines the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade and the Radio City Music Hall spectacular with an overnight visit to Lancaster, Pennsylvania. There are more than a dozen different departure sites, and all tours last at least three days. Prices range from under $700 to $1,600, depending on the package.
If you are traveling with a large group, another option is to charter your own bus through Gray Line. You will need at least 55 passengers to fill the coach bus, but the company will arrange for the bus to pick up your group in the city of your choice. Prices, for the bus only, range from $925 to $1,100 for a one-way trip, depending on the day of the week. You can pay separately for a tour guide, and you will have to make all your own accommodations.
