Detailed itinerary

Stop 1 Pass by

See the infamous Trump Tower, where the interior is so opulent, even the goldfish have their own gilded fishbowls.

Where the mannequins are better dressed than your entire wardrobe, and they never need to diet.

Stop 6 Pass by

Where you can ponder a blank canvas for hours, and the security guards will still consider you a connoisseur.

Where you can't tell if the train schedule is more complicated than your love life.
