Each year over Memorial Day weekend the U.S. Navy docks in and around NYC, and Navy Seals and sailors flock to the streets in their iconic white uniforms.
From May 26th – June 2nd, these sailors get to take in all that New York City has to offer, and CitySights NY, the city’s premier upper-deck only motor coach service, is making sure they do so in style. CitySights NY is welcoming our boys in uniform by offering free tickets to bus tours of their choice, with discounted fares for family members also available.
Tours include:
o The Uptown Treasures Tour and Harlem Tour
o The Downtown Tour
o The Brooklyn Tour
o The Night Tour
o The Multilingual Tour
Free tickets will be given to any military personnel in uniform during fleet week. No reservations are required for CitySights NY tours and tickets are redeemable at the CitySights NY visitor center located at 234 W. 42nd Street in Time Square. Tours are available daily.
