The biggest thing that can help you make the most of your trip is to simply take your time, and make sure you aren't rushed. Since New York is one of the biggest cities in the world, there's a virtually endless amount of things to see or do. Make sure you give yourself plenty of time at each individual site, and not to plan to do too much. It may seem like a good idea to fill your schedule with things to do, but consider planning on less places, so you can spend more time at each individual place. That way you'll have a much richer experience.
One more good idea to think about is to take advantage of the many tours available. There are tours ranging from completely guided to self guided tours, and everything in between. Completely guided tours are where you go along with a group, and tour guide explains everything to you. Self guided tours generally involve a map, or a guidebook, and you simply making your own way at your own pace, and learning about things as you go. Make sure to pick a tour that gives you exactly what you are looking for.
Many people associate New York with crime, especially those who watch plenty of police dramas on TV. But the truth is, millions of people travel to New York every year without having any problems at all. So don't let any fears or anxieties get in the way of having a good time. Of course, it's important to use basic sense and take precautions, but don't limit your trip based on what you've seen on TV.
And finally, make sure you take time to soak up some authentic New York culture. Most find that this is best done by either taking at least a day at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, or seeing at least one show on Broadway. Both of these will give you an experience that is completely unique to New York, and will give you an experience you will never forget.
Whether you're staying in New York for a weekend, or a week, these simple tips can help you get the most from your trip. You'll have more fun, and create many more amazing memories.
