Upon arrival, our private driver will whisk you away to your hotel, where your host will warmly welcome you. Your Experience starts with a memorable mixology class at one of Kevin's favorite lounge and cocktail bar. After some time to freshen up at the hotel, you make your way to our welcome dinner, perfectly paired with excellent wines.
This morning, after a delightful breakfast at our property, we're off to nearby Little Italy (and famed Eataly NYC) for an exhilarating food-tasting adventure. Get ready to uncover the neighborhood's best local artisans and savor their delicious creations. Later and after some time to relax, channel your inner chef at an exciting, hands-on cooking class at Degustibus Cooking School. Upon completion of the class, enjoy a lovely dinner at the school. Later tonight, why not enjoy a nightcap at a local lounge, a best-kept local secret?
This morning, we embark on an exciting stroll to Murray Cheese Cave for an exclusive tour and mouthwatering tasting. Our adventure continues with a delightful lunch, featuring a variety of local and international cheeses. Taking a break from eating, we make our way to one of the tallest buildings in the city, and enjoy the Edge! It is followed by dinner at Ci Siamo, where Chef Hillary Sterling centers her Italian-inflected menu around live-fire cooking and seasonal ingredients, bridging the traditional with the contemporary in a transportive yet familiar space.
On this Saturday morning, and after some time to catch up on sleep, we make our way to West Village. At Little Charli, we learn to make true Roman-style pizza alongside Chef Salvatore Olivella during this interactive experience! On this last day of our journey, guests have some time at leisure to enjoy their afternoon before our farewell dinner, paired with some fantastic Italian wines. Later tonight, join your hosts and a true New Yorker for nightcaps at some of the most historic pubs and speakeasies.
Today, after a morning at leisure or at a time of your choosing, our driver will take you back to the airport. Consider soaring over the skies of New York by using our Helicopter service (refer to the "Add-on" section).
