NYC in a Day

hi

the trip sound cool

I was thought of NY as a hard place to relax. But this trip sounds like it could be relaxing along with adventerous. I may try it sometime!

This is a wonderful way to see the "city that never sleeps" in a nut shell. Although I haven't been back to NY since Oct '97 that I moved back home (Puerto Rico), I often feel home-sick not being there. Even though I lived in The Hamptons and I barely knew or visited the City, I will take advantage of this One Day Trip, when I get there next year.

How can you possibly see all of that in one day? Or are these several separate trips?

Maybe you could "see" each of these places in one day, but to enjoy them you would have to spend a little time, and allowing for travel time, that would take too long, unless you're going around the clock, which is not recommended for the first-timer (though I have been in Central Park at 2am - but that's a story for another time). Also, no NY trip is complete without visiting one of the great museums; I recommend Natural History or the Metropolitan, both of which border Central Park.

Never would I try and do that much in one day. How can that be relaxing? It's rush here and rush there. By the time you got done with at least 3 of the places you'd be beat. Don't try this. You'll be disappointed. The person that would take this trip might as well go on Amazing Race cause thats about how quick you would have to go through it.

I go to NYC every year and there is no way you could see all of this in one day. You'd be travelling all over town, either spending most of the time waiting for the subway or most of your money on cabs. Just going to the observation deck of the Empire State building can take about an hour. The smart thing to do would be to pick your favorites (if you only have a day, pick 2 or maybe 3) and save the rest for another trip.

whoever came up with this one day trip is insane! in fact, i think if someone can make it to all that places all within one day, i'd really admire that someone. because in the city, u most likely have to wait for almost anything, especially those tourist places. its just impossible!
say, i can just get lost in china town, or soho, or the central park, there are just so many amazing little places in each of them, u just simpley can't rush through, cause if you do, you are not seeing the city!
