    These are the kinds of videos I need. Not just overhyped, 'everything is amazing' tourism videos with 0 research. Just some honest insights into what's worth the $ and what isn't.
  • @ringslow
    As a lifelong New Yorker, I always bring first time visitors on the Staten Island ferry. You get a great statue view and downtown skyline. And it will always be free
  • @anlasbry
    Thank you for warning people about the scammers and con men who stand near Battery Park and aggressively accost tourists and sell them fake tickets. Anyone going to the statue should be well aware of this.
  • @stepheneson4107
    I've been to all twenty of your attractions, and the only quibble anyone might have is the order that you rank them in. But each and every one of these is spot-on for both pros and cons. Well done and highly recommended.
  • @martinlewis3547
    Did the public ferry from Dumbo to Williamsburg at sunset. Was definitely the highlight of my trip at only $4!
  • @dziobak87
    Just returning from my first NYC (and USA) trip. I found your videos super useful. Thanks! Cheers!
  • I was about to complain about leaving out the statue of liberty but then #2 popped up
  • @p1eguy32
    one correction on here, the Enterprise space shuttle at Intrepid is the real Space Shuttle Enterprise! it's not just a replica!
  • @dmcgjr
    I've used your videos as a valuable resource for my periodic visits to NYC. I truly appreciate the information you share. My list of things to do continues to expand.
  • I lived in NYC for about a decade. I travel almost every year taking nieces and nephews and the things I think you failed to mention are 5th Avenue from Rockefeller to the Park and also the area around Washington Square Park (not the whole Village but Bleeker Street, McDougal and the Friends apartment. Can also stop at Bleeker Street Pizza and pick up a slice of Nona Maria)
  • @TheWarrior1256
    Literally travelling from Europe to NYC in 4 days. Amazing timing, haha!
  • @mrdisco1
    Back to the Future is a must see, especially if you’re a fan of the movie
  • @ivof77
    Another great attraction to do / visit is the Madison Square Garden arena tour. It's great if you are a sports or concert goer.. very insightful
  • @abbaming2406
    Thank you for this list! I am disabled so going to attraction sites takes some research. Your video gave me a lot of foresight on what I can or can not do! This is a huge help. So grateful to you and your channel!
  • Super well done! Informative, but also personal, always pointing out WHY you rank it where.
  • Hey Jon! I recently spent a week in NYC and I absolutely loved it! I used your videos to plan the entire trip and the great advice and insider tips made it so much easier to navigate everything! I actually never felt like a stranger, who knew? The city is completely overwhelming in the best possible way! Keep up the great work!
