Itinerary
We depart New York east through the borough of Queens leaving the hustle and bustle of the big city behind. We begin to appreciate why the rich and famous chose to make Long Island their own personal playground when the scenery transforms from tall buildings to open spaces, beautiful meadows, magnificently landscaped homes, and gorgeous flowers in the springtime. We then continue east passing the Long Island Duck before arriving at the famous Southampton where residents such as Jerry Seinfeld, Paris Hilton, David Letterman, Steven Spielberg and others have made it their home. This is definitely the place to see and be seen.
Next, stroll down the picturesque main street, before heading down through the historical area, the harbor and along ocean drive, passing some of the homes of the rich and famous along the way. We continue to one of the wineries that Southampton has become famous for, where you will enjoy complimentary wine tasting.
Next stop is Sag Harbor, a quaint town that invites its visitors to enjoy its unique atmosphere. Next, we take time to tour the harbor and see the yachts that are the toys of the rich, then stop at the antique stores or the old world shops for some real bargains.
After lunch we head west towards the Tanger Outlets where we pick up our mall goodies and then explore the stores - find your own bargain with brand name stores for less. In the late afternoon we will depart west for an evening arrival in New York.

Our guide Michael was fascinating and intelligent. He had a wealth of knowledge of New York as we were heading to the Hamptons. We enjoyed Sag Harbour town as found the town charming. South Hampton was also nice too stroll and have a look. Would have liked to hear more celebrity goss and other interesting facts about the Hamptons. Outlet was okay for a pit stop to use the restrooms and food, would prob have liked to tour further along East Hamptons and Montauk in the future.
Awesome trip, I would recommend increasing alloted time at Cooper beach plus Sag Harbor and reducing time at Tanger mall.
It’s a great day sightseeing,visiting Southampton and Sag harbour,coopers beach and tour guide was very informative
All great, highly recommended! We have seen and experienced a lot. The beach and port were beautiful and our guide perfect.
Great experience to do on a day from New York. Discovery of several Hamptons cities. Great guide Redi, very nice, who speaks very good French.
We had an amazing day on this Hamptons excursion. Everything was very well organized from start to finish. The guides were excellent, each speaking at least three languages fluently, and they gave us great recommendations, especially for restaurants. A special mention to Redi, our guide, who was truly fantastic – attentive, friendly, and very knowledgeable. Thanks to him, we discovered the Hamptons in the best way possible. I highly recommend this tour !
Our tour guide Okai was fantastic, he was friendly and welcoming and took the time to explain the history / interesting facts about the places we were going without overcooking it! We started the day at a lovely little bakery for breakfast, followed by a drive down billionaires lane in South Hampton and a trip to Coopers Beach. We attended a winery for a tasting and then stopped for lunch and free time in Sag Harbour. We finished the day at the outlet for some shopping. Everything ran very smoothly and our guide was transparent about duration and timing the whole way through the tour so there no surprises. I’ve seen people complaining in the reviews that they didn’t get enough time in each location. What they need to realise is that to get to the Hamptons it’s 2 - 2.5 hours each way without traffic. If the guides didn’t stick to a strict schedule, you’d barely see anything and you’d be arriving back in NYC at midnight! People also complaining they don’t get enough time at the outlet. It’s a full 2 hours and you just need to prioritise the shops you want to go to. After all, it’s not an outlet shopping tour. We chose the shops we wanted to go to beforehand and 2 hours was plenty for us. A great tour with enough time for a taster of each part of the hamptons. Would definitely recommend!
Great day tour as a first time booking. Guides were very knowledgeable and driver very safe. Places we visited were interesting.
Great experience to break week i. Manhattan. Visit of Southampton village and Cooper’s Beach. Appreciated the stop in a vineyard with tasting of local wines and on the return stop of two hours at Tanger outlet. Excellent our guide
Viewing the yachts and boats on the return. At the harbor was great. The main interpreter was also great
