Today, everybody is celebrating Earth Day! You can go plant a tree or do a million things in Central Park today (tree climbing, park tours, flower planting...) and tonight, don't miss the Empire State Buidling with green lights only!!!!
You are arriving in at La Guardia, Newark or JFK and it’s too late to take public transportation. Take a cab to Manhattan! Make sure to take a Yellow Cab only. You’ll be able to hail those Yellow Cabs in designated areas. If you cannot find them, ask a uniformed airport employee to help you. Visit nyc.gov for legal fares. Last but not least, on your way to the Yellow Cab line outside of the Airport, some people will ask you if you are looking for a cab. Do not follow them as they might overcharge you and they aren't as well regulated (or as safe) as Yellow Cabs.
Why would you pay parking if you can easily find parking spots for free???? This map will help you park your car everywhere in Manhattan for free!
Take a look at Manhattan from above. Tour the Big Apple in a helicopter and experience a thrilling ride with fantastic sights. Liberty Helicopter tours offer tours ranging from 2 to 17 minutes. Prices might be a little steep but flying high on this tour is well worth it.
