NEW YORK - Top Family Attractions, What Not to Miss and Midtown City Guide

Creator's Key Takeaways
We've been fortunate enough to visit many times and always find that Midtown is generally where you'll spend a big chunk of your time with it holding an amazing array of attractions.
The one we'd recommend for families though is Summit One Vanderbilt.
We really enjoyed the tour and the kids loved seeing the studios, so this is something we'd very much recommend.
No matter which you choose, in our opinion, a sightseeing cruise is a must and a great one for the whole family.
