As .Solo. said, take a lot of money. I took $800 and spent it all within 4 days.

It's a good place there, so long as if you don't go in Winter haha.

I made that mistake and it was bloody freezing! Shiver

I like food, so bring about 175 pounds or 200 euros for food. That will cover drinks, snacks, and your meals, along with gratuity; if you dine out a few nights.

I go every year to visit some family and we stay in queens pretty nice compared to Manhattan. We normally take 400$ for a weekend and when we stay for a week to take $1200-$1500 as bus passes and subways are 2$ each and food and such is about 3-5x normal price here.

I just took into consideration that I only took $500 because the school paid for transport and Breakfast and dinner so I agree with TairyHesticles take around 1300 bucks if your going alone

Well i've been there 3 times, and I will be going there again for christmas (also from england). It's such a cool place, I would bring a lot of money if I were you (I Bring like $300 and im only 13). As If your buying clothes and that its cheaper.

Also, I only went/stayed in manhattan. From what I here Brooklyn is quite ruff. So if I were you, try get yourself a room in a nice hotel in manhattan. Its pricey but amazing, these are where I have stayed. You must login or register to view this content. You must login or register to view this content.

My favourite was probably palace, as they also have a Maybach to take you around (I'm a massive car fan). But I was also there at christmas. I Think I'm also staying at the Palace at christmas when I go.

Anyway, hope I helped dude :y:

Bring a shitload of money, especially if you're hanging out in the city. $3 for a bottle of water ($1 on the outskirts) and $20 for a burger in fridays in time square.
