3. Visit Washington D.C from New York
Although Washington is not particularly close (at 364km) for a day trip, being so close to the capital of the United States it is almost inevitable not to add it to your trip.
Washington is a huge city and to see the essential places calmly I would recommend a minimum of 2 nights/3 days. However, if you do not have time, you have the opportunity to take a day trip from New York.
On the day trip you will get to know the most important places in the city such as the White House, the Capitol, the Arlington Cemetery, the Iwo Jima Monument, the Washington Monument, the graves of the four Kennedy brothers, the Memorial of the Korean War, Vietnam War Memorial…

4. The Hamptons
If you feel like taking a trip to the beach in a relaxed way, a good option is to visit the Hamptons. In addition to enjoying a place on the beach and you can get to know the town of Southampton, a place with a lot of charm.
This excursion is combined with a stop at a huge outlet, the Outlets Tanger, where you will find the best brands at incredible discount prices.
5 . Excursion to Niagara Falls, one of the natural wonders of the East Coast of the United States and Canada
One of the most incredible natural landscapes on the East Coast of the United States and Canada is Niagara Falls.
From New York it is a very long excursion, almost 24 hours on tour. However, if you cannot dedicate more days to it and stay there, a good option is this excursion so as not to miss out on this marvel.
In my case, I only know Niagara Falls from Canada, although you only need to pay for the visa at the bridge booth to be able to cross to the other side and visit two countries on the same excursion.
