Travel Guide

Experience all of New York's attractions with this up-to-date, authoritative guide, packed with Insider Tips. Most holidaymakers want to have fun and feel relaxed from the moment they arrive at their holiday destination - that's what Marco Polo Guides are all about. Discover great hotels and restaurants, the city's trendiest places and night spots, and also get tips on what to do with a limited budget, shopping and ideas for travel with kids. Also contains: the Perfect Day, Festivals & Events, Travel Tips, Links, Blogs, Apps & more, and a comprehensive index. New York is the symbol of the American dream: a giant, busy, exciting metropolis. But if you want to understand its attraction you have to experience it yourself first hand - that perpetual hum, the honking of horns and sirens, in short: the New York feeling. With MARCO POLO New York you will feel the city's creative energy, the excitement, the very special atmosphere created by its skyscrapers and street canyons. This practical, pocket-sized guide shows you everything that the City that Never Sleeps has to offer, as the Insider Tips reveal where you can discover the secrets of Grand Central Station and why you might visit the Polish National Home. The Best Of pages highlight unique aspects of New York, recommend places to go for free even in the most expensive city of the world, and have tips for rainy days and where you can relax and chill out. On top of that it tells you What's Hot in the Big Apple - such as roving gourmet food trucks and events in the city's parks. The extensive City Walks through Chinatown and Little Italy, Downtown and along Fifth Avenue demonstrate that no other city is as easy to explore on foot. Last but not least the Dos and Don'ts point out some of the things you need to be aware of and watch out for when visiting the city. MARCO POLO New York provides comprehensive coverage of the city. To help you find your way around there's a detailed street atlas inside, a useful map of the Subway in the backcover, plus a handy folding pull-out map. A must-have for all travellers, including those who haven't bought a travel guide in the past.

Product Information

Wanderlust Magazine: You've got to applaud Marco Polo's chutzpah to launch 30 new city/island guidebooks into an already pretty crowded market. Aiming to occupy the middle ground between the context-heavy luggage fillers and the context-free thinner volumes, the main USPs of these user-friendly guides are the plentiful 'Insider tips' dotted around each edition, the maps they're packaged with, and the pocket cheering price (GBP5.99 each). Complete with near-magazine style features, they're certainly a less intimidating proposition than some of the big wedges on offer. Essentially America Magazine: We're pleased to see that, unlike some guides that are entirely focused on Manhattan, this one also covers the key neighbourhoods of Brooklyn. A small treasure, particularly for the first-time visitor.
