A short compact guide to New York City and day trips beyond the city. There is not much detail to each entry but it is a pretty information filled book for a quick guide.
It is split into neighborhoods as you would expect and includes some sights and eating ideas you may not expect from a regular guide book.

I Love New York….this is more than a slogan to me…I really do! This guidebook provides an overview of the top spots to visit in New York City. For many of them, it doesn’t provide specifics in terms of how to get there or address, but is helpful in compiling a list of must see places. I liked that they included some sights and activities in not just Manhattan, but also the outer Boroughs. I also liked that they discussed some of the various neighborhoods, something that is helpful for people unfamiliar with “The City.” I’m glad they included pizza in their discussion of Greenwich Village! They just touched on a few neighborhoods; I would have enjoyed them mentioning more of them, especially in Manhattan.

I did appreciate that they provided addresses for some of their culinary recommendations, but thought it would have been helpful to more specifically identify the locations of some of their recommendations such as the Chelsea Art District.

In all, this is a solid introduction to New York City. I read an advanced copy of it and hope they have enough time to note in their section about public transportation that Metro Cards will only be available until the end of 2025.

This is the best kind of guidebook. It starts out with the basics about getting around and goes through section by section giving examples of what to see and do. The photos are clear and vibrant and there is so much great advice, including some places to visit off the beaten track and even day trips.
