Tips for Tourists: Staying Safe and Seeing Sights in NYC on a Budget
- Don't approach costumed "characters" in Times Square - they can be dangerous
- See the Statue of Liberty for free using the Staten Island Ferry
- Don't be afraid to take the subway, just be vigilant
- Don't take the express train if you need to be on a local train
- Wear comfortable shoes on days with lots of walking rather than heels
