Do we actually go Into the 9/11 memorial and museum and up to the 82 floor of the Empire State Building. please explain what is included in this sight seeing tour as I am staying in New York a few days prior to the tour starting and don't want to double up on these attractions thank you for your assistance. can you tell me how many people we have booked for this tour so far

    Tour Details
    • CosmosOperator•Written May 2024

      For this tour, it does not take you inside the 9/11 memorial or Empire State Building this is just a tour around the city past those sites. There are just over 20 people booked on this one at the moment and it is a guaranteed departure.

    Caitlin

    Asked on May 20th, 2022

    I am interested in this tour but am a solo traveller. Can you please connect me with someone to share a double room or triple room? I am female but don't mind any gender. I am also happy to pay a single room supplement.

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • CosmosOperator•Written May 2022

      Unfortunately since Covid we have not yet brought back our options to share rooms so you will have to pay the single supplement. We have also cancelled our 24 Jun departure but there are still seats showing available for the 15 Jul 22 departure. If this date suits you we can request the single room for you. This will take 2-5 business days.

  • P

    Pamela

    Asked on March 11th, 2022

    Would I have to share a room or are they single rooms?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • CosmosOperator•Written March 2022

      We do not have the option to share a room since Covid so you would have to pay the single supplement to have your own room. The next departure going is 15 Jul 2022.

    Matt

    Asked on January 10th, 2022

    I am trying to book as a solo traveller but there doesn't appear to be an option for that on the booking page. Was trying to book before the end of your Boxing week sale!

    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • CosmosOperator•Written January 2022

      We are unable to confirm your booking request as your requested departure date has been cancelled. We do have alternate dates available starting June 3, 2022.
