New York travel tips
Consider the Staten Island Ferry in New York City as the closest view of the Statue of Liberty for free
You can take a cruise on the Staten Island Ferry for free in New York City. Besides just a good walk across the river, you will get the closest view of the Statue of Liberty for free. Stand in the front and back of the boat to have the best landscapes. It runs between the St. George Ferry Terminal in Staten Island and the Whitehall Ferry Terminal in Manhattan every 30 minutes.
Walk around the busiest district of New York City
Visit Chinatown in New York City and dive into exotic storefronts. When you walk along the vivid streets, visit different shops for anything from rice-paper lanterns and ‘faux-lex’ watches to tire irons and a pound of pressed nutmeg. You can find volunteers that can help you at the intersection of Walker, Baxter and Canal Streets.
Choose Brooklyn for brunch in New York City
If you like to sleep long, Brooklyn has great options for branches in New York City. Visit the CityMilk & Honey cafe at 1119 Newkirk Avenue; order the French toast with crème brûlée sauce. It is perfect to start your day!
