There is plenty for visitors to New York to see and do.
Travellers keen to visit New York but save money at the same time should be pleased to hear there are many cheap and free activities to enjoy.
An article in the Shropshire Star tells travel insurance policyholders and others that there is plenty to do in the city that never sleeps.
It advises planning ahead and avoiding the major holiday weekends in order to get the best deals on flights.
Tourists can fly directly from the UK into JFK International or LaGuardia Airport in approximately eight hours.
To get into the city centre it is possible to get a taxi, although buses offer good deals at just a couple of dollars per trip.
"New York is full of cheap or even free entertainment.
"A walk across the Brooklyn Bridge gives a great view of the city and you can visit the famous Metropolitan Museum of Art and American Museum of Natural History for free," the article notes.
Once there, there is plenty to explore and those keen to head further afield could consider taking the Staten Island Ferry to get a fantastic view of Manhattan at no cost.
It takes 25 minutes to travel between the two islands and the ferry has been running for 100 years, offering visitors a taste of history as well as stunning scenery, the news source adds.
Simply walking around New York can be interesting and exciting for tourists, as well as being completely free of charge.
Times Square, the Empire State Building and Broadway are among the most popular destinations for travellers to see.
