I was there before 9/11. Stayed at the Waldorf Astoria (company paid trip). They took me on a little tour of some attractions. I was ready to leave when my work was finished and actually went to the airport to get on the standby list.

I wish I had known about - Little Italy and Peter Luger's steakhouse, though.

It's the only place i've been where you have to tilt your head completely back to see the sky. Big cities just not my thang.

Everything except the cool demeanor. Just look crazy AF. They'll leave you alone.

See if you can get tour guide David. He was great and knows his shit. Tried to “stump the chump”. Couldn’t. He took us on a 3 hour tour through lower Manhattan, Greenwich Village, Washington Square Park, Chinatown, Little Italy, the Bowery, financial district, etc. and the requisite subway ride. Small group, 9 total because people are fat/lazy and don’t want to walk.

We all met at this joint around 7 or 8 am on a Saturday. Big Gay Ice Cream is right around the corner. You’ll feel right at home.

Do it.
I didn't mind the double Decker bus tour. I did it three times. The ability to get on and off where you want made it cool. Get off and walk around seeing stuff, then just get on the next double decker that stops.

If you're a newb and don't have anyone there to show you around, then that's a great way to get the lay of the land.

The Hop on Hop Off Bus.
If it's over 80°, it might be a touch hot though.
You'll learn a ton.

I was a newb. I didn't know shit. I still don't know why I couldn't hail a cab. I whistled, waved, stood in the right place, stood in the wrong place. Finally one actually stopped. By then we were soaking wet and my wife was even more pissed at me than on a usual day.
