I had the fortune to visit New York in early September 2008, just before the dollar slid from highs of $2 to £1. I stayed for 4 nights, and was lucky enough to take in a lot of New York whilst I was there. ***The Empire State Building*** We arrived from Boston in the evening, and headed straight for dinner in Times ...

New York is definitely the place for sightseeing. There are so many places that you have seen on TV or in the movies that, if you're anything like me, you are dying to see in "real life". We went for ten days so managed to pack in quite a lot of sightseeing so rather than boring you with every single thing we saw, I'll just ... Read the complete review

New York is one of my favourite places in the world to visit, and already I am looking forward to my next visit. There is so much to see & do in this city, but the first thing that strikes you as you arrive is that it immediately feels familiar - obviously the city has featured so many films & TV series over the years ...

New York is packed with sights and attractions to keep anyone busy during a stay there. The first thing I would recommend you to buy on a trip to New York is the New York Visitor Pass. This can be purchased from most of the attractions and is available as a 1 day, 2 day. 3 day or seven day pass. I would recommend going for the 2 day ... Read the complete review

Friends, Sex and the City both of those shows have a lot to answer for as it led to me really craving to visit the city that never sleeps, New York. For years I wanted to go stateside and experience all the fun things that I saw glimpses on when I watched programmes and films based in New York and for my 21st Birthday 5 years ...

I have held many occasion to visit the City but I will discuss one particular trip in this piece, the most memorable trip to NYC that I ever had. Unfortunately the memories are not good, if fact it was a nightmare of a trip, but it served to clarify some issues in my relationship with my mother's husband, who prior to this trip I ...

Since September 11th security has been increased at ALL tourist attractions and sports venues, everywhere you go, your items will be x-rayed and you will have to go through a metal detector, because of this increased security the queuing time at some places has increased also. Liberty & Ellis Island, home of The Statue of ... Read the complete review

In the backstreets of the upper west side is a little second hand/ vintage clothing shop called "Allan and Suzi." This shop is one of those little gems that you don't plan on but ends up being one of the highlights of your visit. This one shop oozes pure New York. As soon as you find the little boutique ...
