Solo Trip to NYC | New York City Travel 2021

solo trip to NYC | New York City 2021

Getting to explore New York for the first time in a while was so much fun! I am fully vaccinated and I followed all mask protocols while there and during travel.
I'm still getting used to traveling alone and especially filming myself alone in public, but New York was a great place to practice. Overall, I'd give New York a 9.5/10 for a solo travel destination. There seems to be a lot of people doing things alone in new york, so I never felt weird. Also, CityMapper was my best friend for navigation.
Also, here's the link to a video that shows you how to use public transportation to get from LaGuardia to Manhattan. I'd highly recommend it over a car service because it's only $2.75. BUT, if you have a lot of luggage, be aware that you'll need to walk down 3 flights to the subway and then up 3 flights to get out.

INCREDIBLE! I just got back from a solo trip to NY yesterday so thanks for making me feel like less of a loser lol. I definitely agree that easing into it with restaurants you're familiar with can help keep you grounded.

Thank you for being so honest and transparent about your trip, everyone else just post this expensive vlogs about how fun NYC is and even thought I bet is great is really comforting hearing someone else talking about how excited but also tiring and even anxious it get get being alone in the big city. I really needed this before my first time in NY this upcoming month.

I’m doing my first solo trip to NYC in June!! Super excited and this video helped a lot with tips and feeling more comfortable with the excitement!

Made me miss my hometown. I used to spend afternoons in Central Park when I went to school on the Upper East Side and lunches at Washington Square Park when I worked at WTC. It is a perfect city to be alone since most people are grabbing lunches alone and there is great people watching. Some of my favorite times in NYC were alone. Great video!

I love this video! I’m going by myself at the end of the month so thank you for making me feel better!

I'm just about to be twenty and am planning a solo trip to NYC as soon as I turn 21 eeeek!! It'll be my first ever solo trip, and I'm coming all the way from Australia. But, I feel safe going since I've been before and already done the touristy type things. I absolutely loved watching your experience so much, thank you :)))

Thank you so much for sharing this experience Emily!.. I'm going there in August and I was really nervous about doing it.. your video really helped put things in perspective!... Thank you so much for that!.. I also plan on visiting the MET and also would like to see a Broadway show!.. I'm definitely going to take inspiration from some of the sights you've seen!
