What to do and see in New York, United States: The Best Fashion Shows & Tours

March 5, 2022 Etsuko Causey

New York State has it all – booming metropolises, majestic waterfalls, mountains, wine country, chicken wings. Yes, NYC is a magnet for tourists, but an exploration of the rest of the state can be equally thrilling. The Finger Lakes Wine Region is a vision of serene waters, quaint B&Bs, and pretty vineyards. Movie buffs will love Rochester, home of the George Eastman House and one of the world’s most comprehensive film archives. On your way to Niagara Falls, stop in Buffalo to fuel up on spicy wings.

I visited Schmalberg to find embellishments for a veil I'm creating for my wedding. Tucked away on the 7th floor is this fabulous little business, the only one of its kind in the United States, where workers produce beautiful fabric flowers. The collection is mind-boggling, but their workers are very attentive and led me to just what I'd imagined. One of the owners, Warren Brand, made sure I was happy, and gave me a very fair price for the flowers I bought. Their goods are hand-produced of very fine materials, and come in a huge variety of flowers and colors. It was not only a good shopping excursion, but a true New York experience. Two thumbs up!

HORRIBLE!! THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM!!!!!! BEWARE! DO NOT BOOK! My daughters and I traveled to NY to take the 5 borough trip. We were told to meet outside of the Hyatt Hotel. The bus never showed and the tour company could not reach Amigo Tours!! Amigo Tours is not reputable, and,are scam artists. Any company that doesn't have a working contact number is ridiculous!! I am an attorney and will be taking legal action against this company!! Once we are refunded the money from the company we booked through, I will be filing a class action consumer suit against Amigo Tours!! You scammed the wrong Lawyer!!!!

Suzanne was absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable. She was so friendly and we had so much fun together. We continued for well past my allocated time and we started with a hot chocolate and chat to start off with. Suzanne did a great deal of research beforehand and gave me a list of all boutiques and a map of all their locations. I had a fabulous time and purchased some amazing things. This is a must do, well worth the small price. I will recommend and will do it again when I come back to New York.

We absolutely loved our private Sopranos Tour! Marc was super informative. The only thing missing is the opening music while going through the Lincoln Tunnel. We learned a lot about where the characters are now. Saw a lot of the filming sites. Bada bing was smaller than it seemed on Tv but still the Bada bing! If you go in this tour when you come back to the city go to Bardough on 46th. The guy who plays Dick Barone on the show owns this bar and her happened to be there and we got to make pictures and chat with him. fun time for people who love this series!

NYC Highline walk. No guide showed up. No email to let me know it was canceled. No phone call to let me know it was cancelled. And to top it off, the Highline doesn’t open until 12 noon, not 10 am when the walk was scheduled for. Wonder what they would have done with a group for 2 hours before it actually opened. If the guide had actually shown up?
