IF you’re planning a trip to the Big Apple, here are a few top tips to help you save cash!
UNLIMITED TRAVEL
For unlimited transport on both subway and buses, get a week’s Metro Card for $32.
FERRY GOOD VIEWS
The best free ride in the city is the Staten Island ferry. When boarding from Manhattan you want to be on the outside deck to the right to see the Statue Of Liberty and the left on the way back.
WALK TALL, WALK HIGH
The High Line is an old, elevated railway line converted into a flower and tree-lined walkway.
GRAND DISPLAY
Just stand in awe and admire the cathedral-like magnificence of Grand Central Terminal, a railway station like no other.
READER’S PARADISE
And the New York Public Library, famous from films like The Day After Tomorrow, is as far removed from your little local library as possible – but brilliant for a browse.
HAPPY MEALS
There are happy hours at bar and restaurant chains all across the city that slash the food and drink costs, and the street food carts are brilliant for anything from a bagel to a hearty breakfast.
FREE WIFI
If you don’t have a data package for your phone, don’t worry. There’s free WiFi just about everywhere – including the subway.
SPECTACULAR ST PAT’S
St Patrick’s Cathedral on 5th Avenue, opposite Rockefeller Plaza, is simply magnificent. A lovely spot to sit and reflect.
SHOPPING HEAVEN
There can be some amazing sale bargains with shops such as Bloomingdales and Macy’s slashing prices by 50% and more.
BIKING CLEVER
The CityPass also has discount vouchers and free one-hour bike hire allowing you to cycle Central Park and over the Brooklyn Bridge.
