Lower East Side Food Tour + Top of the Rock


Experience New York through both taste and sight with the Lower East Side Food Tour + Top of the Rock package. This pairing blends the cultural history of downtown with sweeping views of Manhattan from above.

Your journey begins on the Lower East Side, where immigrant history and foodie culture collide. Over three hours, a local guide leads you to seven tasting stops, including Katz’s Delicatessen for iconic pastrami, a Dominican counter for breakfast bites, a pickle shop steeped in family tradition, and an artisanal doughnut bakery to finish on a sweet note. Along the way, you’ll hear stories about the immigrant communities that shaped the neighborhood, explore the historic Eldridge Street Synagogue, and discover why the Lower East Side remains a cultural melting pot.

Once you’ve feasted your way through history, it’s time to change perspectives at Top of the Rock. Located at Rockefeller Center, this observation deck delivers breathtaking 360-degree views. From Central Park’s greenery to the Empire State Building’s towering silhouette, the vistas offer an unforgettable look at the city from above.

Together, these experiences tell New York’s story from the ground up—through its food, its immigrant heritage, and its iconic skyline.

Tripster makes it easy to enjoy both with bundled tickets and exclusive savings.
