Hi there! I’m going to NYC for the first time ever (with my family of 6; all adults) and I need help building an itinerary. I will be staying for 3 full days in July. I’m definitely a planner and I like to have a set itinerary schedule just to make the trip less chaotic. I know 3 days is a short time and I understand this plan I have is very unrealistic, so please edit my itinerary and pick whatever you think is best! Me and my family will greatly appreciate any help. Thank you so much!

Please also give any tips on transportation and how to possibly go from each activity to the next.

Locations listed below: Please pardon the mess of a schedule. I tried my best to check Google Maps and see where everything was located, but of course I don’t know how to get around town or how long each activity will take.

Food: My family and I are huge foodie people and we typically eat all day long, so please suggest anything that you think would be a must try that is located near each of the various locations because we will probably take quick breaks to snack lol Here are some MUSTS that I want to try while in NY

• Coffee shops
• Bagels
• Anything Brunch related
• Best pizza places
• Rooftop bars/dining
• Any other “must have” foods

Other random fact: I am a HUGE Gossip Girl fan so if there are any famous GG food/bar spots that are in the area, please let me know so I can try and fit them in the schedule :)
