Whew! You're in New York City! Now how do you get from your hotel to the Empire State Building? The Metropolitan Museum of Art? Yankee Stadium? Jones Beach? Don't worry, the worst part of your trip is over. If you are staying in Manhattan, it's simple — you use mass transit, take a taxi (“cab it,” as New Yorkers say), or walk. Outside of Manhattan, you can drive, take a commuter train, or an express bus.
