Could Not Have Gotten Along Without It

My husband bought me this guide as a gift for my first trip to New York. I must say that I could not have gotten along without it. Even though my traveling companion had been to Manhattan several times - she even lived there for a period - we were constantly consulting the manual. In particular, the subway map and the map of Central Park were very helpful. As an infrequent traveler, I also found it useful to have the expected gratuities spelled out of me. I will continue to use the guide to help me sort and identify the many photographs I've taken during my trip. This is a very valuable tool and the best of the many guidebooks I've come across.

Useful!!!!!!

I had an older version of this guide when I lived in NYC. It was great. That was 30 years ago. I'm going back next week. After reviewing all the guide books, I still find this one the most useful. Wish me a good trip.

best NYC guide

makes NYC manageable for the tourist. maps are much better than those found in other guides.

NYC tour guides study it.. it must be good!

I was on one of those tv show/ movie tours in NYC recently and the tour guide had the most interesting stories to tell about the city. After the tour was over, I asked her to please tell me where she got all of her information. She explained to me that the NYC government requires that tour guides pass a test to get a tour guide license. In order to pass that test, they recommend that you study the Michelin NYC Green Guide. I wanted to make sure, so I called the licensing division and asked them what I needed to do to prepare for the exam - sure enough, they said to get the Michelin Green Guide NYC!! This travel guide has to be good!

The real scoop on NYC!

A great book that gives you the details on museums and locations of interest. I've been to NYC several times, but found the floorplan of the Metropolitan to be helpful...so this trip I can focus on areas where I haven't spent time. Also reviewed museums I may decide to see this time, based on the details in the guide. Even if I miss some of them, the book gives good details, so I feel as tho' I haven't missed everything! Maps are helpful, with suggested daily tours areas... it is good to know what is realistic to see in one day! I look forward to my next trip to NYC...I will bring this book for reference!
