Hi, I'm glad you found this trip! I'm planning a trip to the US East Coast this summer to finally visit the Land of the free! About the trip We're staying in a hotel in New York for 4 days, afterward, we will visit D.C. for two more days and return to New York to fly home again. In New York, we will visit Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, 5th Avenue, One World Trade Center, 9/11 Memorial and Museum, MOMA and just discover this amazing and crazy big city. In Washington, we will visit the National Mall, and see the White House, the Capitol, and all the Memorials. We can also visit different Museums such as the Smithsonian or the Spy Museum. 👋 About your TripLeader Hi, I'm Kira and I'm 27 years old. I'm from Germany but I spent a solid chunk of my childhood in the US and have visited there several times after returning to Europe. I've been to NYC twice already but it has been a while and I haven't seen the city as an adult yet. So it's also a "rediscovery trip" for me. Food is everything to me and New York is the Mecca of Foodies and emerging Food Trends. So you might see me eating 95% of the trip. Message me anytime if you have any questions :) 💰 About the trip cost: 500€ for the first Hotel in NYC (5 nights) 200€ for the Hotel in Washington D.C. (2 nights) 100€ for the last Hotel in NYC (1 night) 80€ for the roundtrip ticket from NYC to Washington 113€ for already planned activities including One World Observatory, Ferry to the Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island, and Top of the Rock Full Transparency: I also included a 50€ TripLeader Fee per Person because I will take care of everything for you and will be the one guiding you through New York and Washington. There's also a 10% buffer included in the price just in case prices go up or something unexpected pops up.
