Buses in New York Reviews
Newest Review: ... that we were leaving we left the hotel and walked a short distance to the subway station and caught the train to the stop that was as close as we could get to where our bus route was to pick up. All in all that took about an hour but during that ride we were serenaded by a group of nice gentlemen doing barber shop type songs with no music to back them up they all had great voices and it made the ride go by that much faster. As we walked up the stairs to the street level we were happy to see that there were signs showing us what way to go and my cousin had it programmed into his phone telling us what way to go so between the signs and ... more

Having the luck to win a trip to New York City that included air and lodging I knew that I would be responsible to find my own transportation around the city.

Your ticket is valid for wherever you are heading so you can go North as far as you like then West or East to your destination on a different bus.
