This post is the first of 3 about our favourite places for Christmas shopping and the things you can do while you are there. Today, New York.

It goes with out saying that New York is one of the world’s most fabulous Christmas shopping spots!

Why not turn your Christmas shopping trip to New York into a Holiday adventure?

After you’ve hit all the New York Christmas shopping hotspots (and visited the nearby discount outlet mall) make the most of your time in the Big Apple by trying one of these exciting tours:

1. The Sex and The City Tour

Hit up Carrie Bradshaw’s haunts (and favourite shops!) on this behind-the-scenes SATC tour.  Visit Charlotte’s gallery and see Carrie’s apartment.  Learn about the Miranda’s favourite bakery and Aidan’s furniture shop.  And don’t forget to stop by Jimmy Choo!

2. Liberty Harbor Helicopter Tour

Soar above the glittering Christmas skyline on this amazing helicopter ride!  See New York in a whole new light (the tour itself would actually make an excellent Christmas gift!).

3. The Empire State Building

Of course, if you haven’t, you must.  If you’ve been 5 times, bring along a friend.  A sight not to be missed!

4. ‘Spirit of New York’ Cruise

Heights aren’t your thing?  Finish a hectic day of Christmas shopping with a (romantic?) cruise along the Hudson and East rivers.  Dance floor optional…but highly recommended.

Make the most of your New York Christmas shopping excursion, and explore as much of this fantastic city as you can!

Happy Holidays!

Next post, Dubai! Stay tuned.
