Mitre Peak Cruises - Coach + Cruise + Coach- Queenstown

DETALLES DEL TOUR Conozca a su Guía de interpretación certificada, súbase a nuestro lujoso vehículo Pink Adventure Tour Trekker y prepárese para una expedición única en la vida. Ya hemos cargado el almuerzo y el agua embotellada, además de pagar las tarifas de entrada al parque. En el camino hacia el Parque Nacional del Valle de la Muerte, su guía local experto compartirá información sobre el clima, la historia, la vida silvestre y el terreno del área. Desde su desnivel hasta su temperatura, esta área increíble es un destino de extremos únicos. A su llegada, se detendrá en el Centro de Visitantes para recoger mapas, libros y su sello de pasaporte del Parque Nacional. Luego irán a Badwater Basin. Tome a la señal que indica su altitud (86m bajo el nivel del mar) como el punto más bajo en el hemisferio occidental. Su guía puede explicar cómo la extraordinaria altitud y el terreno afectan el clima para hacer de este uno de los lugares más cálidos del planeta. (No se preocupe, nuestros tours se realizan en los meses más cálidos de septiembre a mayo). Hace miles de años, la cuenca de Badwater fue un lago que finalmente se evaporó. Las salinas que quedan hoy son un espectáculo inolvidable. Quédase en el camino y tráigase las gafas de sol; los campos de sal son de color blanco brillante bajo el sol y son peligrosos de atravesar, especialmente en el Devil’s Golf Course. Protegido de inundaciones periódicas a una altitud ligeramente mayor, el Devil's Golf es famoso por sus impresionantes picos de sal. A 5,000 pies sobre el Valle de la Muerte, puede ver todos los puntos de referencia del día desde la terraza panorámica de Dante’s View. En días despejados, podrás ver Mount Whitney y Badwater Basin al mismo tiempo, que son los puntos más altos y más bajos de los EE. UU., respectivamente.

Everyone remembers where they were on September 11, 2001. An event that shook the world, the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center changed the path of recent history in a way we still see every day. Visit Ground Zero to gain a deeper understanding of 9/11, the affect it had on the city (and the world!) and the long struggle undergone in New York City to move forward from that day.  With an expert local guide, you’ll explore not just the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, but the areas and landmarks around the World Trade Center that featured so poignantly in news reports after the attacks. Traveling in small groups, you’ll visit St. Paul’s Chapel, where friends and families gathered to hear news of their loved ones, and where handmade prayers and memorials still lie.  At Brookfield Place (previously known as the World Financial Center) you’ll learn about the economic effects of the attack and the struggle to rebuild afterwards. You’ll visit the Eleven Tears Memorial, a touching and personal memorial, which commemorates the 11 American Express employees that died in 9/11. The Winter Garden is another must-see on Vesey Street. You may have missed it on your own, but with a local guide leading the way, you won’t miss a beat.  After that we’ll head for Ground Zero, to see the stunning 9/11 Memorial Pools, each one built in the footprint of one of the twin towers, and inscribed with the names of all those who perished in the attack. Your guide will take this time to give you a more personal account of the tragedy that unfolded here, taking you to the Fireman’s Memorial and the Survivor Tree to tell you the incredible stories of courage and loss that unfolded right where you stand.  The last stop on our tour is one we’ll let you manage on your own. The 9/11 Museum is a very well curated space, with artifacts salvaged from the event on display, alongside countless personal stories. It’s a very moving visit, best taken in at your own pace in silence. We still have one last perk though – we’ve pre-reserved your museum tickets, so you’ll skip long lines to gain immediate access. We’ve kept our groups small for this tour to ensure a level of intimacy and peace that’s fitting for such a visit, and have chosen only the best local guides to give your tour a more personal feel, giving the 9/11 Memorial and its surrounds a more human context.  PLEASE NOTE:  From March 1, 2018, we are no longer including the following sites on our walking tour due to a slight itinerary change.   American Express Eleven Tears Winter Gardens Brookfield Place Inclusions: Expert local tour guide 5pm Reserved timed-entry 9/11 Museum tickets (self-guided)  Small groups of 20 people or fewer Exclusions: Gratuities Hotel pick-up/drop-off Food/Beverages Sites Visited: St Paul's Chapel  Brookfield Place (formerly known as World Financial Center) American Express Eleven Tears Memorial  Winter Garden 9/11 Memorial Museum (Museum is non-guided) 9/11 Memorial Pools  Freedom Tower (from exterior)  Fireman's Memorial Survivor Tree   North Cove Marina PLEASE NOTE:  From March 1, 2018, we are no longer including the following sites on our walking tour due to a slight itinerary change.   American Express Eleven Tears Winter Gardens Brookfield Place Please note, this tour is in English only.
