Those making the trip the the Big Apple any time soon will find this list of things to do and tours to take very useful. Put together by new York Magazine, the list here puts you places you might not otherwise see if you are just here hoofing it on your own. One recommendation here I can vouch for personally (and I LIVE here) is the Watson Adventures scavenger hunts. These are really fun and interesting and a great way to learn about the city. They are also a superb way to learn more about the city. Basically, you go out with a group of friends to places like the Met or the Museum of Natural History and solve clues based on the location. You end up working together as a team and running all over the place. Sure, it can be a pain for those who are at such and such museum just to spend the day and hordes of scavengers are running around. But screw them, it’s fun.
