The most convenient part of coming to NYC is that you can take public transportation ANYWHERE! I'd advise anyone to choose the subway or the trains over the cabs everytime. The traffic here is very busy, not only at rush hour but every hour of the day.
NYC pleases all kinds of people with all of its museums, beautiful parks, spectacular Broadway shows, exciting clubs and restaurants, amazing sights and infinite stores...
I'm the kind of person who would rather walk then waste my money on tour buses. Just get a daily or weekly METROCARD and you're good to go.
I like to take all my guests on my own personal tour and my start point is always downtown Manhattan.
One of my favorite gems in that area is "Battery Park". You can begin your day there, taking the Statue of Liberty tour or not, relax, watch the boats and maybe catch one of the summer live performances at the park. After that you should walk up to the financial district where you will find the Bull and the stock exchange flag. Keep walking and you'll find the amazing views of the "Brooklyn Bridge" and the "One World Trade Center", You can choose between staying in Manhattan or crossing over to Brooklyn. Either way, its a great bet for a nice break.

Lets keep walking up and we will make it to "Little Italy" and that's a perfect stop for lunch time.
It's time to walk a little more and hit "Soho", one of my favorite neighborhoods in the city. There you will find great stores and movie theaters, and if you're lucky, you might see a celebrity walking around.
Next you can choose one more time between the subway and walking to keep our journey north and the next stops are "Chelsea" and the "Village". Personally, I rather go to either neighborhoods at night and appreciate its bars, pubs or restaurants and after stretch to the "Meatpacking District" to choose between our finest clubs and lounges.
Continuing with my daily plan, next stop is "Times Square". It's probably the busiest section of the city. It's a great place to sit down for a snack and just observe the flow of the most vibrant city in the world. There you can buy anything. If you have time, I'd advise you to catch a couple of "Broadway Shows". There's nothing I enjoy more in the city than going to Broadway.

I hope you find my post helpful and enjoy my favorite city in the world as much as I do!
