For first-time visitors to New York City, getting around can seem intimidating. If you’re not sure what to see or how to get around, consider hiring a car service to help you see the best sites the city has to offer. Here are a few suggestions to help you plan your itinerary.

Do:

Take in a show.

Not that long ago, Hamilton was just getting started on Broadway. Today, people across the country are paying top dollar for tickets as the show starts its tour. Don’t miss out on seeing the next big Broadway hit—and you can tell your friends you saw it first!

Ask a local for advice.

Nobody knows the city like a local. Ask hotel employees, restaurant servers, car service drivers, and bartenders for their favorite spots so you can see the city like a New Yorker. They may also have suggestions for the best times to visit places and where to get discounts.

Don’t:

Fall into tourist traps.

The Empire State Building is one of the most popular attractions in New York City, but the lines are often hours long. Consider whether you really want to see the most popular places in New York and perhaps lose out on seeing and doing more things because of long lines. You can still get a gorgeous view of the city from a different skyscraper like the top of Rockefeller Center.

Miss out on the nightlife.

Don’t forget to budget in time for an afternoon nap so you can go out at night and see the city that never sleeps. Whether you love hand-crafted cocktails, dancing, or gourmet eats, New York City after dark offers some of the best nightlife entertainment in the world. A car service will help you and others get around the city at night safely without worrying about flagging down a cab, and your driver will have tips on the hottest bars and restaurants.
