So you are attending Meet Magento New York? That’s great! — There is so much to see here, so many places to visit, so many things to do.
On our Tour we won’t show you the typical favorites (Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, and so on).
We will do an eCommerce sightseeing! Let’s start the trip.
