Getting TO/AROUND: Well, you have to ride a cab in NYC. It's a tradition. The fare starts at $2 and goes up from there. From Laguardia, you're looking at about $15-$25 to Manhattan depending on where exactly you're going. It's more like $35 from JFK and more from Newark. Try to share a cab to reduce the cost. When you're on the street trying to hail a cab, look at the lights on the top. If the cab's number is lighted, then it's available. The lights on the side of the number are not the ones you're looking for- it's the cab number itself. Just stick your hand out and the driver will usually stop for you if he's available. Tips are not mandatory, but the standard is 15-20 percent. Also, try to avoid tolls (take the 59th Street bridge to Laguardia, for example) because you'll be paying for them.

'Mode': TO
Category: Train
Getting TO/AROUND: I've always called it "Grand Central Station," but technically it's a terminal because trains both originate and terminate here. The Metro North Railroad operates from here and trains connect NYC to the northern suburbs and Connecticut. You can also catch the subway from here.
