Who are we

MANHATTAN PASSPORT is a special event and destination management company founded in 1985 by former New York Times and Washington Post reporter Ina Lee Selden. MANHATTAN PASSPORT designs special events and customized itineraries in New York City, the Hudson Valley and Washington, D.C., for corporate incentive and special interest groups.

MANHATTAN PASSPORT knows the difference between "pax" and guests.

MANHATTAN PASSPORT proposals closely mirror the final product because we ask the right questions and know how to listen. No proposal is "off the shelf."

What we offer

As specializts in the international market, we design each itinerary to help guests deal with jet lag while here and return them in condition to produce the kind of work that won the trip in the first place. To that end, our typical stay includes a light first evening's meal, and venues for meals and meetings with as much natural light as possible. Many of our dinner venues are accessible on foot from the hotel, and we recommend as much walking as weather and stamina permit.
