So for the holiday stuff use Groupon. We got rockette tickets like 5 rows from the front the 29th of December a few years back for like 25 bucks a person. Only thing is that these tickets will not be refunded or changed if something happens like Covid. But we got two tickets for under 50 bucks and great seats.

Tourist should take the uber everywhere. Do not take the subways. Its not worth it. Ive lived in NYC for over 45 yrs. I know. If a tourist paid a flight or train ride here, dont go cheap with the subway. Pay the damn money for private transport.

I took a yellow cab from JFK to Time Square,the driver could tell that we were out of towners. Our bill came to 62 dollars and i gave a 100 note and instead of giving me all the change she says how much i need back,this took by surprise and i said all of it.

Besides my feet, subways are the best. The rooftop bars for major hotels are pretty underrated too, and also usually not crowded. Hot dogs around Grand Central beware too - $10 variety. Also congrats on 500k.

I had a discussion with a restaurant manager about my dislike of waitstaff standing beside me while I select a tip amount on their electronic billing pad. I think tipping is personal and requires time to reflect on the service, not a time to feel rushed, with eyes looking over my shoulder. The manager agreed, saying that was not supposed to happen. He promised to speak to his staff to remind them not to do it but to leave the pad with the customer, then return later to collect it. It's hard to ask for privacy when it isn't a usual request but I'm learning.

Me and my family returned a week ago from seven day trip to NY. Thanks to your tips the journy was pleasant and not really expensive. We ordered one Broadway show a months ago, just to be sure we're having a good seats. Next day we saw a second show, but this time we bought tickets from the theater box office on the show day for $50. The seats were meh, as we expected, and half of the stage was blocked, but we could switch seats after break and enjoyed the rest. What was disappointing are food carts. The food was not inviting, and the most of all their generators are annoying. They mostly generate pollution as of the air as of the sound. The noise is unbearable. But the rest of the trip was pure fun. Thanks again

Ha! Used my comment! We watched a ton of your videos before our vacation and we found the subway pizza place and we also went to Beast & Butterflies as a part of the trip! The rooftop bar wasn't open to dine but you could still go out there to look around. Totally agree: the view from there is awesome (got some epic night time photos) and the desserts are pretty good. Our West Coast kids got a kick out of seeing where the ball drops. Thanks for all your videos - they're such a help in planning even if you've been to the city before. Edited to add: our kids also really wanted to go to Katz's and thanks to your video on it, we knew to share sandwiches. They're huge!

We did a Hop On, Hop Off bus when we visited 7 years ago because we found a "great" deal on Groupon. We enjoyed seeing parts of the city we hadn't yet walked too, but found even the discounted price wasn't worth it. We took a tour that included a pre-recorded audio description of the history of the buildings and significant landmarks we were seeing on the tour. However, the audio doesn't account for delays due to traffic and we ended up about 1-2 blocks behind what was being described on the audio. We also found that the traffic noise drowned out the audio. We ended up ditching the audio portion about halfway through and just enjoyed the sights. A better option is using Free Tours by Foot (a pay what you want tour group). We took 5 tours in four days with them and found them to be extremely informative and by far the best way to see the city. For some reason we were the only Americans on the majority of our tours, but we didn't mind.

My husband and I took our first trip to NYC in 1998 and took the Hop On/Off tour. At that time they had real people on the buses doing the narration. We did the downtown tour (42nd Street to the Financial District and back) and loved the older guy talking about everything. He was obviously a New Yorker and had opinions!!! We thought it was worth the money (I forget how much) because we saw a lot of the city on what was a short vacation.

Great advice Jon ❤. The public transport issues are challenging if you can’t walk very well. One underestimated way is to use buses if you can get up onto it. I know it’s slower sometimes, but you do get to see a lot of the local sights you’d miss otherwise. The hop on/hop off bus is great too if you can’t use the subway, I used it to move from one end of Manhattan to the other, hopping in and off as needed. Keep up the great work ❤❤❤

I can finish a katz’ deli sandwich in one sitting which is oddly rare. I don’t do it all the time just as a treat. Me and my brother order a large pizza at places as it keeps costs down and we split it. Korean bbq places usually is a set menu of the right portion. Just look around and you’ll understand how to do it.

Thank you for all your super useful advice.

Wanted to be prepared as it is $100 per night =$500 and although you get that back it wont until after your holiday so good to know for budgets

You absolutely do not have to just accept tipping. If a tip is tacked onto the bill automatically, it must be noted on the menu. Otherwise, you don't have to tip at all, definitely not at a coffee shop or for takeout. Also, food is actually not that expensive in the city. Most of those expensive midtown restaurants are for tourists who don't know any better. Just like the hotels, get out of the midtown bubble for much better food at a fraction of the price.
@hassanalihusseini1717

Congratulations on 500K Jon. I'm delighted for you. Hope all is well & great video. As for the observation decks as someonw whos dreamed of being in NYC since I was a kid. My 1st place would be the empire state building & I know you cant see it when you're inside it. But just being able to look back on photos of NYC videos ect & I see that Empire State Building. Being able to say "I was in that" would make it my number 1 observation deck to choose.

I tend to Uber to manhattan from LaGuardia. It’s flat rate. Taxis are ridiculous as it’s $50 plus tax and tip so really like $75 total, it was a huge shock the first time I took the taxi. Well $50 the first time I went to nyc as the rates have gone up so hence the Uber swap.

Lifelong NYC resident here. I have to disagree with you about staying away from the horse carriages. And seriously: riding through Central Park on a pedicab?

Honestly, you're so much better off taking the subway or walking to places. So much easier, and you're not getting stuck in city traffic. Also, as far as food, I much prefer street food, Usually cheaper and quicker than a restaurant and probably more unique experience in my opinion. I also have friends that live in the City so I always ask for spots where locals go.

Your advise about walking instead of taking a hop on hop off bus makes sense if you do not have a disability or if you are not travels a senior with limited mobility. I would like to see a video with tourist advice on sightseeing in NY for traveling with seniors or people with disabilities. For instance the subway sounds like a good idea, however I have only seen stairs to get into them. I am traveling with my 81 year old mother who uses a walker/rollator and also cannot do more than a few steps on a staircase, so I don’t even know if we can use the subway instead of an Uber.

Thanks for the great video, Jon! Serious question - when you go to Katz, can you ask them them to put a half portion of pastrami on your sandwich? (Still offering to pay full price of course). Or will they be offended? Or will it upset their carving system? It's not so much the price, I just don't want to waste so much food, as one sandwich looks like it will be way too big for me.

I remember going into the city in the days of Koch. First, tipping. A tip is 10%. Anything more you're being generous or stupid. I used to work for Tips, so I know the math. And even in the early 2000s, with 10% tips, I could come out of pocket at $1,200 a month and still have spending money. Working at a small local pizza place doing deliveries. If 10% ain't enough work better, have the owner raise prices.

Where are those souvenirs made? I had to laugh when you said Chinatown was the best place to buy them.

I was turned off from visiting NYC this summer because of watching too many of the Cash Jordan videos. But, will go during Christmas break, and hopefully it’s relatively safe to take the subway alone at night in manhattan?

Are you as a tourist obligated to give an additional tip, when you see there is already tip momey added to my bill? Me personally, I would say no. I already tip, I'm not gonna double tip. Sorry

Take a subway in New York? No thanks... Actually, I would be caught dead going to NYC, so there's that.

Lol when your eyes are bigger than your stomach. I used to be able to eat so much. As i get older, i can't. I'm all for the concept of you can always order more. And if you think you're going to eat in Chinatown, bring cash. A lot of places are cash only. If you're in times square looking for a good hot dog, John's famous hot dogs. Know that $3 that John says is the median. The more touristy the area, the higher the cost. But it should not be higher than $5. Yikes, even that's pretty high.
