West Side Marvels
Elevated Vistas and Historic Neighborhoods Discover the cultural and architectural gems along the Hudson River during a walk through Manhattan’s West Side. Head into historic Greenwich Village for a scenic drive through the heart of the 1960s’ counterculture movement. At Chelsea Market, immerse yourself in its bustling atmosphere while browsing the wares of artisanal food vendors, then ascend to the High Line, an elevated park built on a repurposed railway track. As you walk through the park, admire the views of the city, as well as the many plants and art installations that line the greenway. Cap your tour at the Edge at Hudson Yards, where you will head up to its observation deck on the 100th floor—the highest outdoor sky deck in the Western Hemisphere. Step out onto its glass floor to marvel at the panoramic views of the New York skyline, the Hudson River and beyond. After, return to street level and your ship. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines.
