I visit NYC a lot and I tell ppl all the time that you can visit the city on a budget….you just have to research and plan.

[@yaowsers77]

Same! People always think it's so expensive

[@leatherpants247]

Even though NYC is very expensive there are so many places and restaurants one can still enjoy on a budget.

[@SarahFunky]

You’re so right!

[@ActionKid]

1:24 This is one of the mains reasons why I still keep using MetroCard instead of OMNY, to avoid enraged Sarah 😂 6:43 you can get in for free with the Bank of America Museums on Us Program which makes select cultural institutions free on the first full weekend of the month if you're a Bank of America cardholder 8:11 still need to pay for transportation between the Met and Chinatown or it's a long 2 hour walk 😄 Chinatown to Brooklyn Bridge Park is doable though

[@SarahFunky]

These are such great tips! Thanks Ken!

[@davidempire4874]

Also, OMNY still doesn't work on the PATH just yet, which is a problem as Jersey City has many great hotels and AirBnbs you could stay in on a budget.

[@a55tech]

so they left out the ride to the Met, that's 2.75, now they over budget, again! lol

[@davidempire4874]

@@a55tech You could walk there.

[@a55tech]

@@davidempire4874 i kinda doubt they did the 2 hr walk. And that they walked from the last place back home.

Do you still have to tip at places that sell pizza by the slice? So the pizza is $2.99 but did you have to tip 20% on top of that? Or is that just for places like restaurants that have waiters? Newbie to tipping over here!

[@Mrbeahz1]

And you Walked everywhere! Visitors need to know that you can get from A to B by walking. I was with a friend at the top of the WTC (RIP), and I pointed at the restaurant at 13th and 1st where we were to meet friends in 45 minutes. I said, "Let's walk there!" ... We were early.

Also, they used Roosevelt Island in filming the 1990's movie "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". Of course they referred to it in the movie as "East Lairdman Island" which is a callback to the creators of the TMNT Kevin Eastman & Peter Laird.

Oh Sarah... You don't know how much I invy you, just because the tickets for the MET... There are many paints on MET which I want to see since my College times...I will visit NY for my first time on april and the MET is on top of my list of places to go...But, unfortunately now, "pay what you wish" it's not possible anymore for people from Europe... Comparing the prices we pay to visit Louvre, with the prices we pay to visit the MET, the difference is almost the double...

Ok so ima rant. Today was the phantom of the opera trip to NYC. and was gonna sign up for it but didn't because we were gonna eat outside in Times Square in the freezing temperature. And today I regretted not going. I MISSED A WONDERFUL TRIP BECAUSE I HAVE NO IMMUNITY TO COLD. But it should be good cause I might be going to New York after Christmas for a day :)

[@AleOmalley]

Hi! Did you have to tip for the beer? 🍻✨

[@SarahFunky]

You can!

[@AdrianaGreaves]

I would’ve recommended buying a citibike day pass instead of using the train. You didn’t count all the train travel to get down to china town and over to Dumbo, which would’ve added another almost $6 to your days total. I’m not sure how much a day pass is with Citi Bike, but once you have a pass you can take unlimited classic bike rides for 30 minutes each ride. Definitely a more efficient and cheaper way to jump around the city if you’re trying to go a lot of places in one day! And then you stay above ground and get to see more of the city!
