I like doing the hop-on, hop-off bus tours when in a new city. I grew up an hour from NYC, but we still did one of those tours when I took my family to visit several years ago.

I saw the Lion King, I liked Aladdin more. If you're watching Lion King, I think you should find a seat on the first level for better viewing. We had upstairs seating and didn't catch some stuff.
