BE NY Travel Inc.

Tour agencies used to mean stacks of brochures by the door—BE NY Travel Inc. swaps paper for pixels. Their small Long Island City office sits beside the water, a short walk from the 7 train and the East River ferry. Apartment Apt. 1408 is tucked inside 52-03 Center Blvd, one floor above the ground-floor lobby; step off the elevator and you’re already inside the plan.

The shop focuses on day-trips and weekend escapes—carving routes that dodge Midtown crowds. They list discounts for kids up front, then weave in rental-car add-ons and hotel night swaps without fanfare. If you need a family trip to Hershey in late October, they route you through smaller airlines; if you’d rather train it to Montreal in February, they layer in a hotel near the Old Port. A straightforward spreadsheet handles timing; the only embellishment is the printed itinerary stapled last.

Start with a call—that’s the quickest way to lock in a quote. They answer (646) 884-4042 between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.; voice mail picks up the rest. Outside the five-borough churn, Queens still offers cheaper parking garages west of Court Square—a plus if you’re driving in from New Jersey.

Directions are one click away: follow this map link for lane-by-lane cues straight to the elevator bank of 52-03 Center Blvd Apt. 1408. By 5 p.m. the building empties fast, leaving the Lower Long Island City sidewalks calm and fast for an evening walk to Anable Basin.
