Love it! Such a lively and beautiful city ✨ I look forward to going back and trying a lot more food places and visiting more attractions. The subway experience is never dull I love to see the different performers.
Posted: February 7, 2026Only in New York for short amount of time, was a stop in between airport to cruise terminal. What was seen of it was beautiful, the La Guardia Airport is huge and has so many things to browse at. Overall the airport was fair in manners but the taxi ride back to the airport from cruise terminal was outrageous! Note: make sure to verify with driver how much cab ride will be in total before entering car!
Posted: February 4, 2026I live in NY and very close to the City and it’s truly a one of a kind place, I’ve been to many major US cities and no one really does it like New York. The best food, culture, parties, museums and a place where dream come to happen.

For the most part it's safe, just keep moving. You don't have to let anyone talk to you. I find it safer to barely make eye contact and just keep moving. Be careful of your surroundings and make sure to avoid the homeless people who seem mentally ill. Mind your business and they'll mind theirs
Posted: February 10, 2026New York is pretty safe. However, like any major city- there's always chaos lurking around the corner. Unexpected things happen all the time here. If someone on the train seems unwell or confrontational - don't interact with them. Have your wits about you and you'll be fine!
Posted: February 5, 2026It’s fairly safe. It’s a busy city so a lot of people are out. I will say that people do mind their own business tho so when there is trouble it can be kind of a gamble. Ofc staying out late can be unsafe unless you’re with people.
