New York City...Take a Bite Out of the Big Apple

LONDON, July 23 /PRNewswire/ -- New York City is buzzing with a multicultural vibe making it a popular Virgin Holidays destination. New York holidays can be inspiring as travellers are bombarded with internationally known symbols from the Empire State building to Broadway to Times Square. It is a challenge to see everything on offer in this huge city with its many different neighbourhoods.

Along with the informative bus tours there are some more glitzy ways to see the city; why not take a helicopter ride over the Statue of Liberty or for those less inclined to heights, step aboard a swish cruise boat. Stunning vistas of the city are available from the Empire State Building and the Rockefeller centre and are a must for the first time visitor. Broadway shows are a brilliant night out for anyone on a New York City break with shows ranging from the spectacular family friendly "Lion King" to the raunchy "Chicago." Virgin Holidays New York hotels are situated on the fashionable Manhattan Island home to locations frequently seen in "Sex and the City" and "Gossip Girl."

Holidays to New York are full of new experiences and Virgin Holidays help alleviate stress by providing customers with the opportunity to purchase tickets to shows and activities prior to departure. As part of Virgin Holiday's Rockstar service we provide:

• A welcome briefing on arrival to New York
• Discount cards for Macy's, Bloomingdale's, Woodbury common Premium Outlets and Planet Hollywood, shop till you drop.
