Dude you left out Connecticut Why? My wife's aunt stays in CT and takes a fight to Bradley before the metro to NYC. Me and my wife live in middle village queens.
Cheers for the Video! Apologies for chiming in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you ever tried - Proutklarton Key Fuel Plan (google it)? It is a good exclusive product for discovering a hidden Airline Loophole to get cheap fights minus the hard work. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my close friend Aubrey finally got great success with it.
Cheers for the video content! Forgive me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you considered - Proutklarton Key Fuel Plan (search on google)? It is an awesome exclusive guide for discovering a hidden Airline Loophole to get cheap fights without the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my close friend Aubrey at last got cool success with it.
Best part of staying in Manhattan is being able to return to your room for a brief nap and freshen up before heading out into the night for dinner, theater, clubs etc.
I had a $700 spending budget when I went in April. I tend to be frugal anyway on trips, I only spent just under $300. Trains were a godsend compared to other trips I've taken getting around in NYC was a lot cheaper because I didn't constantly have to order an Uber. I paid upfront for my Air BNB located in Jersey City just under $400 for 8 nights. I was located about half a mile from the Journal Square PATH station, $2.75 and I was in Manhattan every day.
@David Hadley Great to hear you used air bnb in new jersey on your trip, i plan to do the same when i go to nyc. im hoping to plan a trip real soon and have been looking at getting an air bnb in new jersey or somewhere on the outskirts of nyc and travelling in by train or bus. Id love some tips or advice if you were able to offer aby please :) thank you
@David Hadley could you give me any advice or tips from your trip? and also where you booked through airbnb, ive been looking at using airbnb myself :)
I visited NYC in November/2018, and stayed in a 20 dollars day hostel in Brooklyn. Not the best neighborhood, but situated in a walking distance to williamsburg and the bridge. I bought some groupon offers, the ticket to the carrier inteprid (really nice), and saved cash. I also bought the NYC 7 day metro pass, used it a lot. For me the best attraction is the bike ride in Central Park, for less than 10 dollars i rented one nice bike for 3 hours (again used groupon), and visited the natural science and art museums for only a little contribution in cash. Regarding food, chipotle is for me the best bang for the buck, for less than 10 dollars makes you satisfied.
AnyRide?? Such a great discovery! Thanks for sharing. I'm so glad you finally made a recap of all your NYC for cheap materials on your channel. You have so much valuable content in here! Good job Jon ;)
The exact date this video was uploaded was the day I arrived in NY and stayed there for a vacation. I miss NYC. Watching all your videos just because I miss NY so much. Thank you!
NYC has been on my bucket list for over a decade and I might finally be able to go this year! I have the money saved up but just need to take a few days off to go. I'm excited.
--- A great tip for anyone going to New York City from not too far away - definitely go by bus! Such as MegaBus, BoltBus or some of the other bus services. One-way & round-trip tickets are often very cheap.
I went to NYC like 3 years ago.. Stayed in the Quality Inn chain.. Like $145 +tax per night. The sub just one block away and in 10 mins we were in the middle of Manhattan. We bought suveniers in china town and eat a lot of cheap food in many food trucks around the city. Walk walk walk.. And yes, we used the sub in a on week metrocard we bought (like 30$ something). We traveled in Oct, so the weather was great, crisp but not to cold and definitele no hot to walk confortable. We have the best time. And definitely need to come back
For my birthday my fiance bought me tickets to come to new York this year with my grandfather. I'm going to see Billy Joel. I'm so excited but I have major anxiety especially since the pandemic. Your videos are bringing me a sense of maybe I can handle it. I've never left Oregon. I'm nervous 😂
Anyride is awesome, no more flipping back and forth between Uber and Lyft like we always used to do. Also, we've been looking for a service like Scott's Cheap Flights - definitely going to check it out!
I was able to find an Airbnb for less than $200 Canadian (taxes/fees included) for nearly a weeks stay in New York. It’s in Brooklyn but it’s still better than spending $105 US per night before taxes/fees. If you want to go to NY on a budget, think about staying at places other than a hotel. It isn’t worth it
Finding a restroom in Manhattan can be impossible so I always stay in Manhattan at the Riverside Tower Hotel. It’s kind of run down but it’s in a fabulous neighborhood.
Chelsea Cabins is a deal when it comes to accommodation. Perfect location - right beside the Penn Station. And very easy on the pocket. You also get complimentary breakfast, which is quite a steal.
I love your channel bro.. I am from Buenos Aires, been there once and planning a second visit once this virus goes away and all goes back to normal. One good tip if u are on a budget is going to dollar tree stores. U can find really good stuff there for just a buck, like books, food, sodas, drinks, ice cream. There is no place cheaper and ideal after a long walking day to eat something cheap
maestro, cuanto gastaste en comida x dia? voy a un hotel con desayuno y pienso comer 2 veces al dia x la calle en algun local de pizza al paso o algo parecido. Decis que con 15 dolares al dia en comida estoy???
@@tiagopichetto2489 si aprovechas el desayuno para llenarte, despues con 15 dolares te va a alcanzar solo para comida el resto del dia. Yendo a lugares baratos, obvio, tipo las pizzas economicas, carritos o fast food. Si tenes alguna tienda de Dollar tree cerca del hotel, te compras por un dolar esas comidas para calentar en microondas, algunas zafan por lo que valen. Busca en youtube esta lleno de videos de gente que habla de lugares baratos para comer en new york
Such awesome videos. We are coming in to New York at the end of the month to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Your videos have given us so many good ideas and fun stuff / tasty food ideas for our trip.
LOVE your videos! I plan on coming to NYC soon and hopefully move there in the future once I save up some money and pay off some bills :D these videos are extremely helpful!
I have a trip planned in April during Easter week, 3.5 star Hotel in Times Square, a Broadway musical, meals, tourism, souvenirs, Transportation and Flights... $3500 for two people and 5 nights
Union Square, Washington Square, and the Whitney is always free for veterans and their families with a veterans id of any sort. not to mention the many street fairs and parades. I find it quite easy to have a good time for free in NY. The Bronx Zoo and most museums have a donation only day. There is always something going on in this city. Just stay out of Times Square establishments. If you are going to be in the city for a year get a NYC ID you can get a year free membership at many museums and establishments.
Also Hot Dog Stands in the city can be a very cheap way to eat, if you know which ones to eat at. There is someone that shows the good and bad ones he finds, his name is Chris.
I would like to add that you can get a 7 day unlimited Metro card for 32 bucks which is a great deal if you're gonna be hitting the streets to see all of what NYC has to offer.
Yes, if you're constantly on the go between far away neighborhoods it makes sense. If you're just sticking to midtown-downtown maybe not. Depends on the traveler !
Thanks so much for providing such useful budget traveling tips in New York Thumps up for your hard work 👍 👍👍👍👍 We can’t wait to go there the coming January 😄 ✈️
When I was in NYC three years ago you could easily get a huge slice of pizza and a cup of soda the size of your head for 1.99$. That's a pro tip. Eat that once and you won't have to eat for five days afterwards...
If you want to do New York through the backdoor you have to think like a New Yorker get your MetroCard thst last for up to two weeks unlimited bus and train rides I ate street food myself I was in the Bronx I ate at corner stores also known as bodegas excellent food put some spice in your life
I would not stay outside of Manhattan if I was to spend most of my time in Manhattan, the transportation time between those other places, and Manhattan takes a huge chunk of time round trip every day, and not to mention if you get a good location in Manhattan you might not need the subway/transportation much of the trip, with exception to the day of arrival and of departure, not to mention the cost of needless constant transportation takes away the savings you might save getting the place outside of Manhattan. Although if I were to be planning to be in lets say Queens most of the trip, then getting a place in queens would then make a lot of sense! Sometimes I stay in a hostel, yet you have to be very careful choosing those, some of them are way worst than others. So it's wise to check the reviews. I do that before buying any hotel room. It's also best to make sure that the hotel knows in advance any needs you may have, it might be much harder for them to accommodate your needs if you wait until your arrival, like hostels may say they have an air conditioner, yet different rooms may have different kinds of air conditioners, some may be controllable from the room, and some may not be. I need the ability to blow air in from outside, so I need one of the ones that can be controlled from inside the room. Also another tip, the higher the floor the room is on, the less noise you hear from outside, if the rooms are not sound proofed from the outside. Also a tip for hostel bathrooms, if there is an emergency and a bathroom is needed right away, there are bathrooms on every floor, we should not be using bathrooms on another floor unless there is an emergency, yet when we need one right away why not, that is what I do. Some hostels might put people in a room with up to 11 other people, a room with bunk beds, so people should pay close attention to the room details before buying, I could never stay in a room like that. Interesting, we have 'Five Below' here as well, and that is why I was not going to go to the ones in NYC, they are boring here, one of the last things that I'd expect to find there is NYC souvenirs. I have something new to add to my list of things to do, thank you.
I love your videos! Great information! I have been to NYC a dozen times and had the amazing experiences you share! I must try when I come in November for my friends “ bucket list” trip. I got an Air B&B and we are coming by train.( Wednesday before Thanksgiving tru Sunday) Any tips for this trip will be so welcome!!
John, your Chinatown hotel was bottom of the barrel, but I stayed at Hotel 91 for $150 p/n in October 2017. It was clean, smallish room, very nice staff and safe. Plus my Ubers were super to/from there.
Can you please make a video for transportation in Newyork its the hardest thing for me as a tourist who comes from a small town with no metro/ subway...
My choice over San Francisco and New Orleans, I chose New York City to visit again over Memorial Day. 4 nights, I will leave early and arrive early the first day and not have to get up too early the last day. Price wise, New Orleans was more expensive, San Francisco was only slightly less, in my mind, why would I not choose New York City ? You're videos are helpful, thanks. I will have to review and take notes before my trip. :) Looking forward to it.
Thought i just seen you in the oculus thing with a bike majig in your hand prolly not though 🤷🏻♂️ your videos are great they made my trip to new york so much better!
About to hit “book” on a four day flight+hotel for my wife and myself. The hotel is in the Times Square area. The flights are both delta leaves our area early Thursday and leaves out late Sunday. $989. Really just a “backpacking” trip around the city. Trying to cram as much stuff and as much good cheap food in those days. Lol.
Hi Jon. I'm a big fan of your content...using it to plan a trip to NYC this summer. Any suggestions on reliable & safe luggage storage? Our flight leaves several hours after our check out time. Thanks!
I am going to visited NYC this summer as a student on a budget and very frugal as well cheap. I will only eat out once before I go home and make my meal where ever I am staying at to cut cost. Next I will only do FREE things in NYC if possible and see if I will have fun. Do you have any apps that is offline for NYC I can used when traveling there and how much is the bus or transit will cost please let me know thanks.
RE: Walking. I was in Boston last year and I'd pull up Google Maps. It would tell me like a 7 minute T ride, or a 10 minute walk and I was like...why don't I just walk?
What if I do when I visit is sign up to numerous apps like birch coffee, DD’s best bagel etc and say it’s your birthday during your time in NYC. You can then get free food and drink
Hi I am coming over next month July 21st from the UK to NY for the first ever time. I’m staying for 4 nights at a hotel in Manhattan. Bringing £1,800 with me which is about $2,100. Do you think this will be enough for 4-5 days spending ? As I will be on my own I won’t be going to posh restaurants or bars. “I don’t really drink “. Money will be just for transportation around. Food I’m going to see the Mets plays the Padres at Citi field Friday Saturday and Sunday games. And of course money for sightseeing. Just found your channel and it’s really helpful so far

Union Square, Washington Square, and the Whitney is always free for veterans and their families with a veterans id of any sort. not to mention the many street fairs and parades.

Hi Jon. I'm a big fan of your content...using it to plan a trip to NYC this summer. Any suggestions on reliable & safe luggage storage? Our flight leaves several hours after our check out time. Thanks!
I have a question... is there a tour that would take you on the Warriors route?? One of my all time favorite movies
I am going to visited NYC this summer as a student on a budget and very frugal as well cheap. I will only eat out once before I go home and make my meal where ever I am staying at to cut cost.
Next I will only do FREE things in NYC if possible and see if I will have fun.
Do you have any apps that is offline for NYC I can used when traveling there and how much is the bus or transit will cost please let me know thanks.
Hey what month do you think would be the most budget friendly to visit New York City? We were hoping for around January or February
Nice yours vds friends. Thanks.
RE: Walking. I was in Boston last year and I'd pull up Google Maps. It would tell me like a 7 minute T ride, or a 10 minute walk and I was like...why don't I just walk?
As a New Yorker try not to walk thru to many places being a tourist. Most people can spot a tourist and you can get scammers in most places
Man I could have used this last week I went to ny w 200 and that’s it
Hey. Are you doing any filming this week. I am there all week. I love to eat different foods.
I'm Going there August 23rd Birthday trip b day on the 5th
Thx for the vid. I will be traveling to NYC during the summer

Where can you find a list of the Thursday art openings?
very helpful, thank you
What if I do when I visit is sign up to numerous apps like birch coffee, DD’s best bagel etc and say it’s your birthday during your time in NYC. You can then get free food and drink
Haha i didn't even know that.. You must have a lot of birthdays.
You got me. I subscribed. 😊😊
Great channel man! 💪🏽🤠👍🏽
Hi I am coming over next month July 21st from the UK to NY for the first ever time. I’m staying for 4 nights at a hotel in Manhattan. Bringing £1,800 with me which is about $2,100. Do you think this will be enough for 4-5 days spending ? As I will be on my own I won’t be going to posh restaurants or bars. “I don’t really drink “. Money will be just for transportation around. Food I’m going to see the Mets plays the Padres at Citi field Friday Saturday and Sunday games. And of course money for sightseeing. Just found your channel and it’s really helpful so far
And the natural history museum it has a suggested price I go there with a penny
Can you please post more on new york city subways
Agree! was wondering about that too 😁
love you bro
