Holiday Romance in New York: The Perfect Couple’s Getaway
There's nowhere quite as dazzling as New York City over the holiday season. Softly drifting snowflakes carpet everything in sparkling white, the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center is all lit up in green and red, and couples sit wrapped up together, sipping steaming drinks while looking out over the city from above. New York in winter is one of the most romantic places to be with your significant other. The city seems designed for romance, with opportunities to steal a kiss or shoot a tender look across a crowded room abounding. If this sounds like the ultimate getaway to you, then you’ll want to peruse our advice on making your glamorous, luxurious couple’s experience the best one possible.
Start With Your Travel
How you and your significant other get to New York for your romantic escape is as essential to the experience as what you do while visiting. Nothing says grand gesture romance, like creating an experience of luxury from the second you leave your home. Booking a private jet charter for you and your beloved is the only choice that makes sense as a part of your couple’s getaway. You’ll have the entire cabin to yourselves, which means you’ll be able to cuddle up for the duration of the trip — not just from when you arrive in New York. You’ll be sipping champagne in the air, and the flight will pass before you know it.
Romantic Winter Experiences in New York
Winter Romance in NYC
The city is at its most charming in the cold months when the weather transforms it into a real-life winter wonderland. There are so many wonderful experiences waiting for you and your significant other that you’ll have difficulty choosing which ones to try first.
Ice Skating
The quintessential “winter in NYC” experience is ice skating. Choose between two iconic locations: Wollman Rink in Central Park and the rink located at Rockefeller Center. The lights are on all day and night, but you can't beat an evening at either of these gorgeous ice rinks.
Museums and Galleries
New York is famous for its many galleries and museums, all of which are perfect locations to escape the cold and feast your eyes on some of the world’s most famous and incredible art or learn about a new culture together.
Broadway Show
If you and your beloved are theater people, there is no better place in the world to find yourselves than the Big Apple. Broadway, or The Great White Way as it is known for its many marquee lights, is where some of the best stage shows in the world spend a large part of their running time. A classic date night formula, dinner, and a movie is the perfect choice for a night out in New York. Fortunately, the theater district is replete with several excellent eateries. Be sure to book both your dinner reservation and your Broadway show tickets ahead of time, though, to avoid disappointment.
Christmas Market
New York has many excellent markets with an incredible array of cuisines to taste and potential Christmas gifts to purchase. Wrap up warmly, hold hands, and immerse yourself in New York culture at the Canal Street Market, the Time Out Market, the Chelsea Market, or the Rockefeller Plaza.
The Empire State Building
The New York skyline is an iconic view, and no tourist or visitor should leave the city without having taken it in at least once. Whisking your other half away to the top of the Empire State Building as the sun sets over the greatest city in the world is the ideal way to round off your trip. It’s a sight you’ll never forget, so be sure to take plenty of pictures and remember to wrap up warmly.
City Of Dreams
Anywhere is romantic if you’re with the one you love, but New York in the winter? Nothing is more memorable and breathtaking! No trip will live for longer in your memory than this one will. Make it as special and romantic as possible by following our advice — you’ll be glad you did.
