New
York Tourist Office - Tourist Offices are
goldmines of information, maps and knowledge of the
area so be sure to drop in to one and find out the
inside information, best prices on hotels, restaurants
and a whole lot more. It’s worth the stop to
see what they find the best and easiest way to get
through the city on any given day. You can book your
hotel room there as well as receive up to the minute
information on the latest traffic, weather and attractions
information. Every hotel reception desk also acts
as a “tourist office” for visitors as
do hotel porters – they can be a mine of tips
and info if you chat them up. They also have maps
and leaflets on activities in the area.
The New York Convention and Visitors Bureau
is situated in 810 7th Avenue at 53rd Street. They
have staff that speak many languages and will be able
to answer any of your queries. They are very knowledgeable
and will go to great lengths to give you the information
you want. They will give you brochures on the areas
that you will be visiting advise you of any special
rates you might be able to receive. They can arrange
your tour choice if you would like them to and a whole
lot more.
It is well worth dropping in. Be sure to visit them
while you are there and perhaps even before you leave
on your trip you might want to call or visit their
website. They have a Wealth of Information
on the website and you can print it out and study
it before you head out on your journey.
