Customer Rating:      Summary: NY Guide Comment: This is a good guide, even for people who think they know New York. There is always something interesting to learn.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The Best NYC travel companion Comment: I spent a week and a half in NYC last Thanksgiving visiting my sister. Since a lot of my exploring was on my own while she worked, this was a great way to plan out my days. I went through prior to my trip and flagged all of the things I wanted to see and do while I was there and by the end of my trip I had almost all of them checked off my tourist list. The only thing that would have been nice would be to make the book a pocket/tote size for carrying around more easily. I carried it with me the entire trip. The best part, was seeing that my sister (a New Yorker for over a year now) has a copy as well!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good reference for any NYC trip Comment: I purchased this book for a friend who has a daughter going to school in NYC. She and her husband were visiting their daughter quite often and I thought this book would help them discover fun things to do in the city. Their reviews have been great and this book has been a real resource. I would purchase again for travelers to NYC.
Customer Rating:      Summary: My Sister Loves this Book Comment: I bought this for my sister based 100% on these reviews. She loved the book and is very excited to start trying some of these activities. She lives in Queens but works in the city and is always looking for new things to do...this book helps her take advantage of all NYC has to offer.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Ok book but no pics Comment: I got this books as a gift for someone and it looked good but there were no pictures and everything just seemed the same.
