New York


The city that rewards a good address book — a table at Carbone, a box at the Met, and a suite on the Upper East Side with the park at your feet.

When to go

Year-round. Autumn is the classic season, September to early December; spring is lovely; August is humid and quiet. Christmas in Manhattan books out a year ahead.

Getting there

JFK 45–70 minutes by private chauffeur, Newark 45 minutes, Teterboro for private aviation 30 minutes. Helicopter transfer from JFK is eight minutes to Manhattan.

What we arrange

Hotels and chalets, private transfers and helicopters, restaurant reservations, guides, events and everything in between — on one WhatsApp thread.

Where to stay

Things to do

Beyond the obvious.

01

The Met, privately guided

Two million square feet navigated properly, with early access before the galleries open.

02

Broadway with house seats

Premium seats to whatever is genuinely worth seeing, secured through the box office rather than a resale site.

03

Helicopter over Manhattan

Downtown heliport to the Statue of Liberty, up the Hudson and around Central Park in twenty minutes.

04

Central Park and the Upper East Side on foot

The Ramble, the Reservoir and the Frick, with lunch on Madison — the civilised way to see the city.

Insider note

Stay above 59th Street if you want New York to feel calm, and downtown if you want it to feel like the films. They are almost different cities.
