16 NEW YORK TRAVEL TIPS TO SAVE MONEY AND MAXIMIZE TIME

There is just no place like New York City. It’s a huge metropolis with about a million things to do, so it’s no wonder it’s at the top of everyone’s travel bucket list. 

Here are some of our top NYC travel tips to help you maximise your experience and stick to your budget. 

Carefully research and plan your NYC trip

Plan out what it is you want to see and do – your absolute must not miss – so you can find the best deals and organize your schedule so you do not waste time moving around the city. 

Book Tours of NYC If You’re Short on Time 

If your first time visitors or you only have one or two days in New York City, we recommend you book yourself a city tour. This way you don’t have to waste valuable time trying to get from A to B and getting lost. 

Explore NYC Neighborhood by Neighborhood

Visiting one or two areas of New York each day will save you money on public transport such as subways and taxis, as well as time moving from one end of Manhattan to the other. 

Choose your season to visit New York

If you visit NYC during the slower tourist months you will save money and a lot of time. The winter months (Jan – March) and late summer (July – August) are the least crazy times (and cheaper) times to visit New York.

Get up early

Waking up early allows you to watch the destination wake up, which is a wonderfully rich cultural experience. It’s a divine experience wherever you are.
