New York night tours start in four kinds of place: a Manhattan pier, a Midtown kerb, a downtown street corner, or an airfield in New Jersey. Here is every start printed on your New York Night guided tours booking, with the subway station or train beside it.
The cruises leave from the West Side piers on the Hudson, from 22nd to 42nd Street, and from South Street Seaport on the East River. The buses, vans, bar walks and Christmas coaches meet on a few blocks of Midtown, between 47th and 51st Streets and 7th and 8th Avenues. The ghost walks and the dinner walk start downtown. The flights start in New Jersey, 45 minutes or more from Midtown.
Check the start on your voucher, not the tour's name. Circle Line sails from both Pier 83 and Pier 16, and the same operator's products meet on different corners.
Pier 83 is at West 42nd Street and 12th Avenue, at the far western end of 42nd Street. Circle Line's harbor lights cruise leaves from here; arrive 45 minutes to an hour early for the security line. The M42 bus runs along 42nd Street to the pier, and 42nd Street-Port Authority, with the A, C and E trains, is the nearest subway station.
Pier 79, the NY Waterway ferry terminal, is at West 39th Street, and the golden-hour cruise boards next door at Pier 78. NY Waterway runs a free bus to the pier from points in Manhattan. The 7 train's terminus, 34th Street-Hudson Yards, sits at 34th Street and Eleventh Avenue.
Pier 62 is at Chelsea Piers, West 22nd Street, where the yacht boards; the nearest station is 23rd Street on 8th Avenue. Pier 16 is at South Street Seaport, near the Fulton Street station complex.
TopView's open-top bus leaves from its stop 1 on 7th Avenue between 47th and 48th Streets, at 6pm and 8pm. Big Bus redeems tickets outside M&M'S World at 7th Avenue and West 48th Street; arrive 15 to 30 minutes early. A block north, the December holiday bus meets mid-block at 770 7th Avenue, and the Jersey shore van at the Crowne Plaza, 790 7th Avenue.
The 49th Street station on the Broadway Line, at West 49th Street and 7th Avenue, serves all of these. The N train stops there at all times, day and night.
ExperienceNYC's closed-top bus boards at 822 8th Avenue, between West 49th and West 50th Streets. The speakeasy walk and the rooftop walk meet across the avenue at One Worldwide Plaza, 825 8th Avenue. The Spanish-guided van meets outside the Starbucks at 325 West 49th Street and ends outside the Empire State Building.
The 50th Street station, at 50th Street and 8th Avenue, is beside all of them, and the E train stops there at all times. One Dyker Heights coach leaves from 10th Avenue at West 41st Street, near 42nd Street-Port Authority.
The Greenwich Village haunted walk meets at the south-west corner of Washington Square Park, at MacDougal and West 4th Streets. The ghost walk meets outside the Waverly Restaurant, 385 6th Avenue, where the guide waits from 15 minutes before 8pm. The West Fourth Street-Washington Square station is at West 4th Street and 6th Avenue.
The dinner walk meets inside John's of 12th Street, 302 East 12th Street at 2nd Avenue. The Third Avenue station on the L is at 14th Street. The gangsters walk sets its meeting point by the option you book, so read your voucher.
Three evenings start at your hotel. The Dumbo and Queens skyline van picks up from hotels and set points across Manhattan; confirm the time with the operator. The private holiday car collects you anywhere in Manhattan, with pickup in Brooklyn, Queens or New Jersey at extra cost. The private van to the Jersey shore also picks up anywhere in Manhattan.
Linden Airport is at 1101 West Edgar Road in Linden, New Jersey. HeliNY suggests NJ Transit from Penn Station to Linden, then its free shuttle from the train station on request, or a taxi of about 10 minutes. The private plane leaves from hangar 310 at the same airfield.
Essex County Airport is in Fairfield, New Jersey, on Wright Way. Charm Aviation is at 27 Wright Way, Building M, and Zip Aviation at the blue door on Wright Way. Charm says it is about 45 minutes by taxi from Midtown, or the Lakeland bus runs from the Port Authority on 42nd Street.
Match the start on your booking to the table. Each address comes from the tour's own listing; the station beside it is the one to use.
