    Subway: New York Subways
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Train
    Getting TO/AROUND: The New York City Transit System is one of the oldest in the world. But at the same time, one of the most comprehensive and easiest to navigate. All one needs is a map and you can get to any place in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens or Bronx fast and efficiently. The only other thing you need is a Metro Card which currently costs $2.00 USD each way.

    Also, be prepared to show your bag while getting on a subway train. Random searches are now taking place as part of new security measures.
