Last Minute Vacation Deals from New York

Famous streets like Broadway, which is synonymous with stage dramas and musicals, and Fifth Avenue, specifically the section between 49th and 57th street, which is a prestigious shopping district home to many expensive shops. There are the city's great museums, like the Museum of Modern Art, the Museum of Natural History and the Guggenheim. Plus there are countless restaurants, nightspots, movie theaters, shops, pubs, parks, and an endless bustle of activity that makes the city an experience like none other.

A world capital of culture and commerce, New York City is a great place to live, and a great place to work. But it is also a great place to get away from on occasion. Luckily, the city boasts a fantastic geographic location that offers numerous options for those looking for last minute travel deals from New York.

One great option is to book a cruise. New York City's ports frequently play host to ships from some of the world's top cruise lines, including Norwegian Cruise Line. The schedule of Norwegian Cruise Line sailings out of New York varies depending on the time of year, but the top destinations to sail to out of New York are the Bahamas and the Caribbean. Bahamas cruises usually last about a week, while Caribbean cruises out of New York often stretch over ten days. There are also, on occasion, party cruises (sometimes called "cruises to nowhere") which last a single day. These are very popular among cruising fans looking for something more than a typical night out. They are also very popular among travelers who are thinking about taking a cruise, but want to test out the experience first.

Of course, south isn't the only direction to look toward when you're shopping for last minute travel deals from New York. Montreal, the largest city in Quebec, is only an hour away by flight. A Canadian capital of economics, business, culture, architecture, technology and travel, Montreal is a city that receives constant praise from travel writers and journalists for its many attractions and overall cosmopolitan feel. Additional praise comes from the UNESCO which names Montreal a world design capital (Montreal is one of only three cities in the world bestowed with this honor) and the International Congress and Convention Center, which named Montreal the number one host city in North America. The sheer number of sights make a guidebook a must, but a few top sights include Old Montreal, where you will find Notre Dame Basilica and many other historic buildings; the Montreal Biodome; and the Underground City, located in downtown Montreal, the largest underground complex in the world.
