In this plan, you'll drive a jet ski around the NYC Harbor to experience some of the most stunning views ever. After that, you'll grab one of the best grandma-style slices in NYC

Here's your plan for a Jet Ski tour around NYC Harbor and a delicious pizza afterward

Jet Ski Adrenaline Adventure to the Statue of Liberty

At Empire City Watersports, enjoy a thrilling Jet Ski tour around NYC Harbor, viewing landmarks like the Statue of Liberty without requiring a license.

Jet Ski Tour

✅ Before you go
• Book your Jet Ski Tour here: https://empirecitywatersports.com/jetski-tour-rental-schedule/
• We did the Statue of Liberty Tour, which lasts approximately 90 minutes, and prices start at $269. We explored the NYC Harbor and saw the Statue, downtown Manhattan, Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges, and DUMBO.
• You can choose different times for your tour. We went early in the day (8 am), and it was great because the day wasn't too hot.
• You don't need to have a license to drive the Jet Ski, but you need to be at least 18 years old.
• They will send you a waiver to fill out before your tour. You don't have to print it, but make sure you don't forget to sign it online!
• If you do the tour, don't forget to tip your guide!

💪 Pro tips
• Since you'll be in the water for a while, it can get pretty chilly. I wore a thin jacket that was wind and water-resistant, and it helped me a lot! I highly suggest wearing one!
• I've mentioned these water shoes before, and I need to recommend them again: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B088F9MNQX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . They have different sizes, colors, patterns, and you can get them for less than $10!

Head to Empire City Watersports

At L&B Spumoni Gardens, enjoy iconic Sicilian pizza and traditional Spumoni dessert, along with indoor and outdoor seating options.

Dining Experience

✅ Before you go
• We went on a Friday around 12 pm, and we didn't make reservations but got seated right away.
• They offer an outdoor seating area if you want just pizzas and spumoni, and an indoor area with waiter service for pizzas and the restaurant.

💪 Pro tips
• They are famous for the silician (or grandma-style) slice, we had it and it was game-changing. It is a MUST try! I promise you won't regret it!
• You gotta get some Spumoni for dessert as well!

Grab a Meal at L&B Spumoni Gardens

Did you know you can take a jet ski to the Statue of Liberty? In this plan

We are going on an adrenaline filled tour around New York

City and ending with one of the best pizzas in Brooklyn.

Our adventure began with Empire City Watersports and our guide, Vin, got us set up

and explained everything we needed for a morning full of thrills. Once out on the water,

The rush began, and we saw the New York Harbor like never before. The unique view

of the Statue of Liberty and Dumbo made the whole trip for me.

After a few hours of pure fun, we got pretty hungry and headed to the legendary

L&B Spumoni Gardens. This Italian restaurant has been serving their signature

Sicilian slice since the 1950s, and honestly, 

It is the best square slice I've ever had.

Their other traditional dishes and Spumoni are a must try

So if you're looking for a fun day full of unforgettable New York view,

send this plan to your fellow thrill seekers and book your tour soon!

Plan your stay (or day trip!) at Mohonk Mountain House

I just found my new favorite getaway at this incredible mountain house upstate,

They dropped it off right outside of our apartment,

and I got to Passenger Princess for the beautiful 2 hour drive.

We checked into our cozy room at Mohonk Mountain House,

so we enjoyed our 1st 3 course farm to table dinner.

then snuck outside for s'mores by the campfire.

The next morning we went for an early trail walk to the Skytop Tower,

and it truly felt like we had the whole world to ourselves.

There are dozens of lookout spots with chairs scattered throughout

the property for you to sit and enjoy nature.

Breakfast was a buffet and blew my expectations.

They even brought me gluten-free pancakes.

and I swear each meal got better and better because lunch was also

a bougie buffet and it was like girl lunch to the max.

Mohonk hosts fun activities each week and always has something new happening.

before trying out dinner at their Founders Restaurant,

which has a more international cuisine focus and then cozied up inside by the fire.

We went for a trail run our last morning,

then wrapped up the weekend with a tomahawk throwing class.

Book this dream stay as soon as you can and let me know what you think.
