Synopsis

DAYTRIPS NEW YORK now features ten carefully selected do-it-yourself walking tours of the Big Apple itself. Beyond the city, the book describes in great detail some 40 one-day adventures that can easily be made by car, or in many cases by public transportation. These begin with the historic Hudson Valley, extending as far north as the Catskills, and on Long Island all the way to Montauk. Connecticut is next, then excursions to most of New Jersey and even the eastern edges of Pennsylvania. Each trip is complete with a self-guided tour, a large-scale map, price-keyed restaurant suggestions to fit all budgets, transportation information, timing, costs, phone numbers, internet addresses, handicap access, and of course historic ans cultural background information.

About this title

About the Author:

EARL STEINBICKER is a born tourist who believes that travel should be a joy, not an endurance test. For over 35 years he has been refining his carefree style of daytripping while working in New York, London, Paris, and other cities; first as head of a firm specializing in promotional photography and later as a professional writer. Whether by public transportation or private car, he has thoroughly probed the most delightful aspects of countries around the world — while always returning to the comforts of city life at night. A strong desire to share these experiences has led him to develop the “Daytrips” series of guides, which he continues to expand and revise. Recently, he has been assisting other authors in developing additional “Daytrips” books, further expanding the series.
