We’ve all received those gifts that don’t get much use or you might have even regifted. When you give a unique experience gift card, you don't have to worry about it sitting in a closet or junk drawer. Your loved ones can choose a class that fits their interests, from jewelry making to a graffiti art tour to dive into the origins of New York City street art.
Does your friend or family member love world-class food and drink experiences? You’re in the right place for amazing culinary classes with local chefs. Learn how to make fresh pasta from scratch or get an in-depth lesson in Indian cooking working side by side in a teacher’s kitchen. If your BFF would rather stick to happy hour, you can call up your crew and learn how to make cocktails at a popular Manhattan bar. They can choose their own adventure when you give a gift experience.
Maybe you need a gift idea for couples and the usual possibilities aren’t that inspiring. Gift experiences will help them create unforgettable memories, especially when it involves activities like body painting for couples or a romantic cooking class perfect for a milestone anniversary. Whether you need a thoughtful present for your parents or childhood best friend, you can find the best experience gifts around New York, from Astoria to the Lower East Side.
If you know someone who is an avid crafter, we have all the hands-on experiences anyone could want. New York City is filled with artists and teachers who love sharing what they know whether it’s jewelry making or knife smithing, we have unique experiences they’ll talk about for a long time! Our craft classes offer the chance to customize sneakers or make a macrame plant hanger and give them something fun and challenging to add to their skill set in 2025.
Whether you’re looking for new experiences in the city or a gift for the New Yorker in your life, these unique experiences will take you or your giftee on a new adventure through the Big Apple. Here’s three things to consider when searching for gifts across the city!
Foodie gifts: From sandwich tours through Brooklyn to a farmer’s market tour in Union Square! You can explore new areas or learn foodie secrets in your favorite neighborhoods in NYC. If you’re looking for gift ideas for foodies, this wholesome and delicious idea will make their mouth water!
Cocktail making class: Tired of going to the same old bar? Book a cocktail making class in a new neighborhood for a little adventure. It will make an extra subway stop worth the effort! You’ll take home new cocktail recipes and enjoy a few tasty drinks in a chic bar. This also makes for fun party ideas if you’re looking to turn your gift idea into a celebration!
Paint and sip vouchers: Enjoy the great outdoors with a paint and sip class in the park! From iconic Central Park to Socrates Sculpture Park in Queens, there is inspiration around every corner. This makes for a great gift idea for anyone who enjoys a relaxing day in the city.
Fresh pasta making class with Red Inside Culinary, South Village
“I got this for a gift for my girlfriend for valentines day. I printed out ClassBento and let her pick the class of her choosing. She landed on Red Inside Pasta Class and she could not have chose a better class. 100/100. I cannot wait to take another one of their classes! The two chefs were incredible and full of knowledge. Awesome experience, highly recommended.” - Edwin
Gemstone ring jewelry class with NYC Jewelry Lab, East Williamsburg
“Received this class as an anniversary gift, and had a great time. Carolina taught us so much, was very thorough and friendly, and we walked away with beautiful professional-looking rings. Would recommend this class to anyone!” - Gabrielle
Private pottery class with Pottery NYC, Hell’s Kitchen
“The best birthday gift, ever! My bestie and I took a private class to learn how to use the wheel. It was an amazing, rich experience, thanks to Thistle, our instructor. She taught us how to manipulate the clay and to become consistent in forming shapes. So much fun and a great value.” - Julia
