I took the subway in ‘92 and I will take it again
It’s just too expensive
NYC is a sewer with full of rats
6 different people trying to scam us at the Statue of Liberty fake tickets. 🗽 they were all dress official looking 👀 very aggressive.
Revel was more expensive than the taxi even with the discount, taxis have a fixed fare from/to JFK-Manhattan
Hey I spy AK!
Sorry, i was attacked down stairs, at Chambers St Dumbo > Manhattan, a strange person, at day time, watch out and look around you
My advice treat Manhattan in sections. Soho, world trade center Chinatown little italy. Etc…one year girls trip went to Ellis Island, tenement museum and Katz deli. Then next day work your way north Soho and Greenwich village. We had a yearly tradition for 11 years rented Airbnb apartments. Since covid never went back again. Not happy with crime situation. I am a native new Yorker live in the free state of fla. Girls trip this year Sicily
The biggest mistake I made was buying the high-priced hop on hop off bus ticket. Wasted valuable hours waiting for the bus to return from Bangladesh. Discovered cabs are the fastest, most fun and economical.
Stop babbling and just get to the point
It’s no tool on the Brooklyn bridge
I live In new York and the subway is very dangerous no matter what time your on it for real the subway is a death trap bumbs stink up the whole train and drug addicted people it’s nasty all day every day
I never eat at chains..ever.
I take the subway everyday, just keep your guard up and you will be fine.
just dont go to NYC its a garbage city filled to the brim with drug addicts in allyways and it also smells like shit
New Yorker here, the Brooklyn Bridge/Manhattan bridge/59th st bridges and Bronx bridges is free to drive through
Better yet, it MISTAKE is even GOING to NYC …..
Don’t GOOOOOO !!!
If I pay with OMNY using my phone and also using my watch, does it count as the same device? The
watch is linked to the phone. It's Samsung Pay.
8:57 love the short clip of the McDonalds in Berlin, Germany! 😉
NEVER EVER!! Eat at a corporate restaurant (Olive Garden, Chili's, Applebee's, etc). NYC is a food capital. Eat food you can't get in Kansas. And for the love of God, stop looking at your phone.
I went to Coppola's Italian restaurant down by 28th or 27th Street and 3rd Ave . A actor named James Cagney who was born in 1899-1986 was born in Eastside NY and played in Sinners Holiday and Public enemy in 1931 , Yankee Doodle Dandy , Run for Cover,etc James Cagney won a Emmy for Yankee Doodle Dandy George M Cohan's life. James Cagney lived in Dutches County,NY 90 miles N of NYC. James Cagney would take family/friends to Coppola's when they were in town including John Trolvolta and Michael J Fox . I went to This restaurant and had the best time ever! Anyone who goes to NYC needs to go here if they have time to experience something new.
The Brooklyn, Manhattan & Williamsburg Bridges doesn't have toll (yet), so you can drive these bridge without tearing your pockets
First thing to do in New York City is not to go to that Communnist Dump. Hey, no one works, they Steal for a Living!
Oh boy! The reason why some carriages are empty and others full… Air conditioning!! I have never seat as much as in a NYC Subway carriage with no air conditioning. It was a sauna!! But at the time, I needed to be sat down. But, never again!
There are no tolls on the Brooklyn Bridge. 🤦🏽♂️
As a native New Yorker keep your eyes open but avoid eye contact, don't carry a lot of cash, dress dress down American style (Ditch the soccer warn up clothes, any bling and the fancy Italian shoes!) the subways can be a dangerous place especially after the evening rush hour and especially outside of Manhattan as there is one level of police protection for the people with money in Manhattan and another for the rest of the city. Also do not trust any stranger that suddenly approaches you no matter what. Try to avoid going mid June through early September as the summers can get brutally hot and humid and teenaged hoodlums are out from school looking for trouble increasing your chances of bad shit going down.
Can I get a Revel from LGA to jersey city?
A few things.
1. Is it okay to Airbnb in New York?
2. Driving around New York. Taxi, Uber or Lyft or that Tesla blue cab?
Thank you.
was 105 buck for a cab from JFK to Midtown the tip the congestion- firtime I tried Revel (IN town) it was too busy to come get me.
If you have jet lag use it for some sunrise photography. It will be quieter and a different softer light.
DONT EVER GO TO NYC ….
We did number 8 and ate at olive garden manhattan. In our defence it was minus 8 Celsius and we just wanted to get some warmth. 😂
I paid $17 for a burger from a sbarra stand. On 46th street by times square😒
Don't take in a show on the day you arrive. You'll fall asleep from jet lag .
Public restrooms are almost nonexistent in NYC.
Mr Jon Barr i am Going Back To New York in 2025
Garbage city
