New York Itinerary: What to Do and See in 5 Days in NYC in 2025

"I enjoy wandering Rockefeller Center to soak up the buzz around The Today Show and the shops, and I prefer the Top of the Rock ($40 USD) for a bird’s-eye view because you can capture the Empire State Building in your photos as well." - Matthew Kepnes
