What you'll do
Central Park has starred in more on-screen moments than any other public park in the world, appearing in over 300 movies and TV shows. On this Central Park TV & Movie Sites Walking Tour, you’ll step straight into some of the most iconic scenes ever filmed in New York City.
As you wander through the park’s famous paths and hidden corners, you’ll visit at least 40 recognisable filming locations from festive favourites, blockbuster action films, and classic romantic comedies. Think the ice rink from Serendipity, the bridge Kevin crosses in Home Alone 2, and the picturesque Conservatory Water featured in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

Expect plenty of photo stops along the way, plus the chance to recreate some of your favourite movie moments as you go.
