Tipps für Reisende
Verkehrsmittel
Subways take you everywhere!
Use Google maps to find out what subways to take. They also will tell you if any subway or bus is delayed, what time they are arriving, what’s the schedule of the train and you can choose your departure time or arrival time making you take full advantage of every second instead of waiting around!
Bräuche und Kultur
Before you stop on the small sidewalks to take photos…
You’ve probably heard this a few times now! Move off to the side and take your photo instead of blocking the whole sidewalk. People in NYC walk fast and are rushing everywhere!
Buche vor der Abreise
All Restaurants and Museums!
NYC is bustling and that means walk ins are never really gonna get you anywhere. You will need to make reservations online for most attractions and restaurants!
So kannst du sparen
Ubers vs taxis 🚕
Check how much the ride will cost you on Uber (also check Lyft app) and then see if you’re on a street with yellow taxis as the taxis will probably be half the price. You can pay with card, Apple Pay for the taxis too.
