Upper East Side

Use this guide as the starting point for planning your trip to New York City. New York can be daunting, since it's so big, so choosing the neighborhood that you're going to stay in should be based on the vibe you're looking for. Do you want to focus on cool restaurants & shopping? Are you a first time visitor, so you want to do more touristy things? All of these questions are things I've taken into account for you. In this guide, you'll find information on each neighborhood worth staying in & my notes on why you might choose to stay there. Once you've chosen your vibe & location, you can dive into my other guides that have recommendations for dining, night life, things to do with the kiddos, free things to do, and more! These guides are all linked throughout, and are built to be used as maps to help you navigate the city. Be sure to check them out to plan the rest of your trip! This guide also contains lots of useful information on how to get from all of the NY airports to where you'll be staying, as well as my favorite app for getting around the city - CityMapper!

Epic 3 Night Guide - Less touristy than the rest! Experience the best of NYC like a local Whether you’re planning a couples getaway or a girls weekend, take in the City like most tourists don’t. You won’t find the most famous tourist attractions in this itinerary and we’re skipping Times Square all together! You’ve seen it enough on TV.. and I swear, you won’t miss it. Instead, we’re slowing down, taking it all in and immersing ourselves into one of the greatest cities in the world as if you were a local! This is a near replica itinerary of a trip I took with my husband to celebrate my 30th birthday, and it was truly epic! Only thing missing was a show on Broadway - which you should definitely fit in where you can and was my only regret on this truly incredible trip. Pack your bags, because you’re heading to… Greenwich Village - The Upper East Side - Brooklyn - Chelsea
