Family Fun in New York

Hire a cheap New York rental car

New York City is known for many things; fashion, nightlife, culture, art, finance and trade; but what about family fun? Though New York might not be the first place that pops into your mind when you are thinking of destinations to go with children perhaps it should be as there are several family-centric attractions here that are super fun and unique in the world. Reserve a 7 seater car hire from New York airport for your family vacation in New York.

Central Park

A family visiting New York need not go further than Central Park to have some fun. You could spend a whole week visiting Central Park and not exhaust all the entertainment possibilities available for children and adults alike. In fact, you could probably find new and different activities here each day of the year as the park changes with the seasons. A few attractions in Central Park include the Central Park Zoo, the 'rustic' themed Billy Johnson Playground, the Chess and Checkers House, the Egyptian-inspired Ancient Playground, Belvedere Castle, and the Discovery Center.

Six Flags Great Adventure

Visit the largest regional theme park in the world with your family, just an 80 minute drive from Manhattan by 7 seater New York car rental. The Six Flags Great Adventure is guaranteed to exhaust even the most hyperactive child with 12 monster roller coasters and a slew of other thrilling and gut-curdling rides. And if thats not enough themed adventure for your family you can go next door to the Wild Safari, one of the largest drive through safaris in the world, or to Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, the largest water park in the North East. Wooo-hoo!

The Palisades

Ranging from 300 to 500 feet, the Palisades are a series of cliffs that rise sharply along the western bank of the Hudson river. They are the most stunning natural feature that can be seen from New York and offer visitors a nearby option to add a little rugged wilderness-style family fun to their visit to the city. Load up a 7 seater rental car from New York and take your family hiking or camping in the Palisades.
