Just did the Flushing Meadows ride and it was AMAZING!

I took the Flushing Meadows, LIC and Local Gems ride with my friends last weekend, and honestly, it blew us away! Our guide was super friendly and knew all the best spots. We went to the Museum of the Moving Image which was a total blast, especially the interactive exhibits. The skyline views from Gantry Plaza State Park were unreal for photos too. Highly recommend this for anyone wanting a different take on NYC!

Thinking of gifting this ride for my parents' anniversary!

I'm considering the Flushing Meadows ride for my parents' anniversary coming up. They love exploring new places but aren’t into the typical touristy stuff. This seems perfect! I love that it includes hotel pickup. Has anyone done it with older folks? How did they enjoy it?
