New York

City breaks to New York

New York, New York. The Big Apple. The city that never sleeps. There’s a reason this concrete jungle tops people’s travels lists and why the Irish visit it in their tens of thousands every year.

Made up of five boroughs - the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and Manhattan - New York is the most densely populated city in the USA. It’s a city that’s alive with things to do, see, eat and experience.

 

Its skyline is instantly recognisable with landmarks such as the Empire State Building, the delightful art deco Chrysler Building, One World Trade Center and the Rockefeller Centre. Whether you want to hit the main tourist attractions, visit key locations from your favourite tv shows and movies or try and live like a New Yorker for a few days, there really is something for everyone.
