The guides

First Time in New York?

Four decisions that shape a great trip.

  1. 01

    Pick the right airport

    JFK, LaGuardia and Newark each suit different parts of the city. The right choice can save an hour on arrival day.

    Compare NYC airports

  2. 02

    Choose your neighborhood

    Where you stay shapes your trip: the Upper East Side for museums and calm, Midtown for theater, downtown for dining.

    Where to stay

  3. 03

    Book the big things early

    Sought-after restaurants, Broadway shows and observatory time slots often sell out. Reserve them first, then plan around them.

    Where to eat

  4. 04

    Plan days by area

    Group sights that sit close together. Crossing town several times a day is where most visitors lose time.

FAQ

Questions, Answered

Can Luxury Travel NYC book my hotel, restaurant or show tickets?

No. We arrange private chauffeured transportation. Our guides are independent recommendations, so please book directly with each hotel, restaurant or venue. We’ll plan your driving around those reservations.

How often are these recommendations checked?

Each guide shows the date it was last verified. New York changes quickly, so check opening hours and reservation details with the venue before you go.

How many days do I need in New York?

Three to four days covers the highlights at a comfortable pace. A week lets you add Brooklyn, a day trip to the Hudson Valley or the Hamptons, and slower evenings.

Do I need a car in New York?

Not for everything. The subway and walking work well for many trips. A private chauffeur is most useful for airport transfers, families with luggage, multi-stop days, evenings out and trips beyond the city. See choosing a car service.
