New York
The so-called "city that never sleeps", New York is an exciting and dynamic city that is home to venerated restaurants, chic nightspots, cutting-edge theatre and architectural masterpieces - which all adds up to a lively and memorable break. Comprising five boroughs, including the iconic Manhattan and hip Brooklyn, there is so much to explore in this thrilling megacity.
First-time travellers should soak up the city’s iconic sights: be dazzled by the city lights in Times Square, catch a show on Broadway, climb the art-deco Empire State Building, or relax in the spacious 843-acre Central Park. When you’re done immersing yourself in Manhattan’s big-city atmosphere, take a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge and admire the city skyline from Brooklyn Bridge Park.
New York isn’t only bustling city streets, though - head to Coney Island for a fun-filled day at the beach, or take a ferry to the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbour to see this unforgettable symbol of America. Return to Manhattan to fill up with pizza in Little Italy before taking a trip to one of the city’s most modern neighbourhoods at Hudson Yards; with so many sights to explore, you’ll be spoilt for choice.
Toronto
Toronto is Canada's largest city, with more restaurants and live theatres than anywhere else in the country. From the famous CN Tower to the Harbourfront Centre with its lakeside shopping and dining, to the new fashionable Distillery District, Toronto is deservedly the most popular gateway to Canada.
For first-time visitors, the best place to get a feel for the city is by visiting the CN Tower, an unmissable attraction downtown, where you can admire the city streets and Lake Ontario from 553m high. For cultural sights closer to the ground, check out the Royal Ontario Museum or the Art Gallery of Ontario. At the end of a long day, fill up with a classic plate of poutine, an iconic Canadian dish of fries, gravy, and cheese curds - perfect on a cold winter day in the city.
To explore a unique city attraction, head to Casa Loma, a charming Gothic Revival mansion in the heart of the city, while travellers looking to do some shopping during their stay have come to the right place, as the city offers a fantastic mix of high-end designers and boutique stores. As the sun sets, watch the city come to life at the 13-acre Distillery District, where you’ll find an array of restaurants and cafes boasting delicious cuisine and refreshing drinks for the perfect evening.
