New York is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, but many first timers make the same mistakes when they visit here! So let us help you out by sharing 10 common tourist mistakes to avoid in New York.
1. Underestimating how much walking you’re going to do
Bring some comfortable shoes
While the subway and buses will help you cover longer distances, you should prepare to walk quite a few kilometers around museums, stores, and between close sites in New York. With traffic and taxi prices what they are, walking the few blocks to the next item on your list is always better.
2. Expecting to buy Broadway tickets at the box office
Plan ahead to guarantee a seat at a good price
Broadway theaters and the plays they regularly offer are immensely popular, so anyone wanting to purchase tickets on the day of the performance is nearly certain to be disappointed. Even if you are fortunate to locate a vacant seat, the cost of occupying it will be unreasonably high.
3. Not using the subway
And not learning how to in advance
The yellow cabs of New York are famous for many things, but not for being fast or cheap. It's not uncommon for first-time visitors to New York to waste hours in rush hour traffic. The subway is speedier and cheaper, but not without flaws. Another major mistake committed in New York is not researching the ticketing system, which is uncommon.
4. Booking a hotel near Times Square for your whole stay
There’s more to New York than Midtown
Midtown Manhattan is home to many of New York City's most well-known attractions, including Times Square, the Empire State Building, and Broadway. Few New Yorkers, however, consider it to be the 'real' New York. In other parts of the city, you'll find more affordable hotels as well as a wider selection of local stores and restaurants.
5. Only eating at chain restaurants
And then complaining about the food
A staggering variety of cuisines are available at New York's restaurants. The recognizable names, like McDonald's and Pizza Hut, mislead some guests, who wonder why the eating scene is so popular. The Meatball Shop and Dos Toros are just a couple examples of modest local eateries that serve authentic American cuisine.
6. Not using the hop-on hop-off bus
Convenient and informative
In cities like New York, such as, hop-on-hop-off buses are a terrific method to see everything. Avoid figuring out public transportation or paying for a taxi. A one-day ticket covering Manhattan costs around $40, but there are many more routes and ticket options to choose from.
7. Stopping in the middle of a busy sidewalk
It’s why people think New Yorkers are rude!
New Yorkers have a reputation for being rude and grumpy, but the reality is that the majority of them are quite friendly, but also extremely busy. With walking being such a popular mode of transportation, tourists stopping in their tracks to admire the view and blocking the sidewalk may be extremely inconvenient.
8. Forgetting the suburbs
See more of the real New York
Each of New York's outer boroughs has its own distinct personality and attractions. Brooklyn, in particular, is worth mentioning. Simply crossing the famous Brooklyn Bridge is a solid start, and you'll be rewarded with spectacular views of the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline on the other side.
9. Underestimating the winter weather
Expect freezing temperatures and strong winds
Although New York is around the same latitude as Portugal, the climate is far from Iberian. During the winter, cold air and currents from the Arctic Ocean sweep down the Canadian coast, bringing temperatures around 0°C and storms that can dump up to 6 inches of snow on city streets.
10. Not tipping properly
Who to tip and how much?
In most countries, a tip is an optional gratuity for good service. Tipping is practically mandatory in the US. What typically confuses tourists to New York is who and how much to tip. Generally, you only tip service providers like waiters, taxi drivers, and hairdressers.

NYC Travel Tips: 10 Things to Know Before You Go to New York City
Things YOU need to know before you travel to New York City. NYC consists of 5 Boroughs, Manhattan, the most famous and dense is also the smallest. Brooklyn is the most populated, with 2.6 million residents (total of 8.5M in NYC). Queens is the largest, and “most ethnically diverse” county in the US. Bronx is the northenmost and the only one that is part of the US Mainland. Staten Island is the most suburban
Manhattan is BIG -- don’t expect to walk the whole thing in a day
5 days is probably the sweet spot. No less than 3 days.
Wear comfortable shoes
Girls: Sex and the City says everybody walks in heels all the time -- not so much.
Don’t try and walk everywhere, the subway is there for a reason.
NYC is Expensive! Everything costs more here.
The city runs on tips
New Yorkers aren’t really rude.. They are just efficient.
Expect to pay to use a bathroom, there really aren’t many good public toilets
Weather
For about 8 months out of the year it is chilly. And, for about 3 months it’s just plain miserable. Be prepared for really cold and windy, or really hot, humid, and muggy. Be prepared to rain always.
Summer: Highs 84F/29C Lows: 68F/20C (July)
Winter: Highs: 38F/3C - Lows 25F/-4C (January)
Winter Footwear -- puddles the size of small lakes
Layers
Best months: September, October, May and June
Getting in
Airports
LaGuardia (M80 Bus)
JFK (Airtrain to Howard Beach then catch the subway)
Newark (30 mins on Amtrak or NJ Transit)
Beware of unnoficial cabs
Trains -- to Penn Station or Grand Central. Grand Central is amazing.
Megabus if you’re on the east coast
Driving -- if you do drive in… just plan to park and leave your car for the duration of your stay.
Transportation in NYC
The Subway mostly runs north south… east and west you’ll be walking it
If you’re in NYC for awhile, get a week or month long Subway pass
Avoid the empty subway car, it’s empty for a reason. Hot or smelly.
Don’t lean on the subway poles… more people can hold on to it
Pay attention to the local, or express trains.
Get in the subway at the correct entrance, going the right direction, and for the right line
There are tons of yellow taxis… but they are notoriously hard to hail in bad weather
Flagship city for Uber, Lyft. But traffic is slow.
If you’re running late, don’t take a taxi. You WILL get stuck in traffic.
Walking -- don’t drop in the middle of the sidewalk
Ferrys for a different way to get around
NYC Ferry - East River route for some of the best views
Citi Bikes -- 10,000 bikes and 600 stations -- Download the citi bike app - $12/day
Bus Tours -- skip it
Times Square
Crowded, chaotic, dazzling and overpriced
Is really small -- and there’s not much to do once you get there.
Whatever you do, don’t eat here. The food is overpriced and mediocre due to high rent.
Broadway Shows
Book way ahead of time
There’s a vibrant “Off-Broadway” Scene
Book of Mormon and Avenue Q are my favorites
Check out the TKTs booth for cheap tickets or online now
Parks (Central Park & the High Line)
Central Park Is really big -- and no subway across
Central Park is 800 Acres
Strawberry Fields, Sheep’s Meadow, ice skating rinks.
Visit the High Line on a weekday to avoid the crowds
Big Apple Attractions
Statue of Liberty -- book ahead of time
Cant get tix for the Statue of Liberty, ride the Staten Island Ferry for free!
Empire State Building -- Long Lines
Top of the Rock is really cool -- great views of the Empire State
New WTC Observatory
9/11 Memorial ($2 Reservation Fee
Museum of Modern Art
Metropolitan Museum of Art
American Museum of Natural History (Suggested Admission)
Chelsea Market
New York Public Library
Flatiron Building
Shopping along 5th Avenue
Hotels
Expensive!
Save some money by staying in Queens, Brooklyn, or Staten Island
If money is no object -- the Park Hyatt is amazing
Marriott Marquis on Times Square in the middle of it all
Food
Food carts and trucks can be really good
The Halal Guys is a “must eat”
Grimaldi’s Pizza (In Brooklyn under the bridge) and Lomardis in Little Italy
Pastrami on Rye
Shake Shack started here
Chinatown Get noodles at Xi’an Famous Foods (location in Chinatown)
Bagels with Lox
New York Hotdogs from Gray’s Papaya
New York Cheesecake
