A Father's Day Gift He'll Remember: The Keys to New York City
Anyone struggling to come up with the perfect Father's Day present might be overlooking the perfect gift staring them right in the eye: New York City itself. It's got all the bells and whistles, virtually unlimited attractions, and there's zero chance that he'll get bored with it and stick it in his sock drawer, says Ken Barrows, Vice President, New York Pass.
With New York Pass, New York City's premier money-saving attraction card, Dad can have New York on a string -- in convenient credit card form -- for just $69. His very own keys to the city, Barrows says.
New York Pass grants admission to over 40 top New York City attractions, including the Sport Museum of America; the Museum of Sex; the Museum of Television and Radio; Bodies ... the Exhibition; MOMA; The Metropolitan Museum of Art; The Guggenheim; The Whitney, and The Museum of Natural History. Behind-the-scenes tours at Madison Square Garden; NBC studios; Lincoln Center, and Carnegie Hall. Zoos, aquariums, parks and gardens, and places of interest like Madam Tussauds; The Empire State Building Observation Deck; New York Skyride, and the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island ferries. He can take a New York bus, bike or Circle Line tour; get a discounted helicopter ride -- or scream down the Hudson River at 45 MPH on the world-famous Beast speedboat.
New York Pass doesn't have to be used on Father's Day for it to be the perfect Father's Day gift, Barrows points out. Thanks to a computer chip inside the New York Pass card, it can be used by Dad anytime -- whenever he wants to treat himself to the perfect New York day. Children's passes are just $49.00, in case he wants to bring along the whole family.
New York Pass will open doors everywhere he wants to go. Many locations even have "Fast Track" entry, a convenient service for New York Pass card holders that will let him breeze past lines and into attractions. Every Pass comes with a 140-page guidebook in English, German and Spanish, which includes hours of operation, detailed maps, tips and directions to every New York Pass attraction.
"A New York Pass card will make the perfect Father's Day gift," Barrows continued. "People fly to New York from all over the world to visit our cultural gems; attractions that New Yorkers often don't find the time to experience themselves. The New York Pass card will give dads a day they will always remember."
