Getting around in New York City, NY

There are many ways to get around in New York City. Although, it is enormous, comprising 5 boroughs, each being the equivalent of a large city on its own, its extensive public transit makes it easy for people to get around, even if they're visiting for the first time.

 

There are taxi, bus, train, and subway services available, and one can also drive, walk or ride the bike, depending on distance or preference, to get around. However, driving is not considered to be the best getting around option in New York, given that the city frequently experiences heavy traffic and congestions.

 

If you decide to get around by subway, while staying in New York, here's what you need to know, in order to easily find your way around: every line is identified by either a letter or a number (ignore the colors - unless you're only using the subway to get around in the midtown area, relying on colors is a sure way to get lost); almost all lines in Manhattan go north/south and the direction is always clearly noted on the platforms and in train announcements; some lines are express (trains don't stop at every station so make sure you get on the right train); be aware that while most of the subway is available for use 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, many lines do not run on weekends or late nights; and, very important, try not to use the subway during night hours, because it is not considered safe.

 

There are dozens of bus lines in New York, which provide reliable transportation, away from the subway, identified by letters followed by numbers, with the letter indicating the borough in which the line mostly operates.

 

Travel Tip: Before your start to explore the `giant` New York City, no matter what mode of transportation you choose to get around, be sure to grab a local map, first.
