New York City's five boroughs are home to some of the world's most recognizable and cherished landmarks and attractions. From Times Square and Central Park to the Empire State Building and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the island of Manhattan packs more legendary icons into one compact area than any other place on Earth—and that's to say nothing of the City's four other boroughs, each of which contains its own roster of must-see destinations. With so much to see and do, a trip to NYC may seem a little overwhelming. It's impossible to see everything, regardless of its staying power, so instead, try to soak in the sheer amount of culture, restaurants, exhibitions, and people here, and you'll be acting like a jaded New Yorker in no time.
With Bethel Coach Tours, visit such sites as the Empire State Building, Broadway and Times Square, Ground Zero and of course, included are tours of the office complex, the Patterson Educational Center in Patterson, NY and Watchtower Farms! Not to be missed is a very special Bible tour at the Metropolitan Museum of Art! Organized by Oasis Group Tours, the tour takes about three hours and is entitled: "The Woman and the Seed" (Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia). This is the tour the Gilead School for missionaries take. The local Tour Guides assisting Oasis Group Tours do a very professional presentation; one that's unforgettable, encouraging and faith-strengthening!
Fortunately, the fun doesn't stop there! You'll also get to take in the sites, sounds and flavors of Canada, Puerto Rico and the caribbean!

White sandy beaches, cool azure waters, balmy Caribbean nights: the Dominican Republic’s Samana Peninsula is this and more. Coconut-covered mountains that march down to the sea, majestic capes that plunge to the ocean’s depths where vibrant, coral reefs teem with brightly-colored fish and spiny lobster, crystal-clear streams that wend their way through the peninsula’s lush arroyos, playful waterfalls tumbling down the verdant hills, the shrill chatter of bright green, Dominican parrots, the murmur of the ever-present trade wind caressing the feathered arms of the coconut palms, cicadas singing through the starry night, the melodic strains of bachata, merengue and salsa: the sights and sounds of Samana are never far away.
Guaynabo (Puerto Rico) derives its name from a Taino Indian term which means "lugar de aguas dulces". The Puerto Rican Bethel home is located here. Puerto Rican beaches conjure up an image of sparkling clear green-blue waters and soft sand to sink your toes into. Puerto Rico boasts over 15 beaches to bask in their warm waters or relax on.
El Yunque rainforest is a sub tropical mountainous forest located in the eastern part of Puerto Rico where the trade winds first meet the island.
