Taxi v Uber/Lyft
If looking for a taxi be aware the Yellow Cabs are only available if the yellow number up top is lit. Green cabs can only operate north of a certain street range in Manhattan. Taxi will be quicker but more expensive, Uber will allow ride share opportunity but often employ drivers reliant on outdated GPS systems unaware of gridlock traffic.

Book before Going
If you plan to visit the tourist sites: Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island then book well in advance. If you want to see a Broadway show and get good seats book in advance or if you want to save some money and don’t care about the view of the show go to a TKTS discount booth (up to 50%).
