Sounds obvious, but Central Park is probably the best thing about Manhattan - which is saying something.This was CP as we had not seen it before - mostly down to Michael's open, friendly approach, his great stories and obvious love for the park. We did 2 hours or so on the bikes, but could have kept going for hours more - after our tour we went back to the park to follow-up on stuff Michael had introduced us to and to follow our own interests. Great holidays are about the people you meet as well as the places you visit - we had a good connection with Michael and it was great to talk about his newly discovered family, our Irish heritage and the incredible history and life of the park.
If you're into history, the natural world, little league, photography, walking, people watching, buskers, ice cream, architecture, Shakespeare... whatever, Michael is the very man!
