It\u2019s no surprise that a New York holiday can be a real pain in the wallet. \u00a0Make no mistake for those trying to travel cheaply in the U.S.A, who will have an especially hard time in the country\u2019s most expensive city.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Thankfully, experienced travellers know a few tricks that can help keep a New York vacation under budget. \u00a0We’ve managed to get them to share their wisdom and knowledge. Here are a few of the wisdom shared:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Spend a Day in Central Park<\/a><\/h4>\n

\"touring<\/p>\n

Luckily, one of the most popular New York attractions happens to cost nothing at all.\u00a0 A Central Park trip<\/a> <\/strong>comes in handy if you\u2019re touring New York on a budget.\u00a0 Indeed, you could easily spend two days exploring one of the most famous green spaces in the world.\u00a0 You\u2019ll discover beautiful waterfalls, abundant wildlife, and nothing but green during your New York excursion through Central Park.\u00a0 And, the absolute joy of all this, of course, it\u2019s free!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hit the Free Museums<\/h4>\n

\"touring<\/p>\n

Although most museums in New York do not heavily advertise the fact that their fees for general admission are a suggested donation, you\u2019d be surprised how many museums you can explore for free.\u00a0 For example, the American Museum of Natural History<\/em> asks only that you pay what you can afford.\u00a0 And, the Metropolitan Museum of Art<\/em> offers Free Fridays for art lovers who are touring New York on a budget.\u00a0 But, you\u2019ll find lots of other museums that you can also visit for free during your New York trip.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take a Budget Cruise<\/h4>\n

\"touring<\/p>\n

Why pay to see the New York skyline from the water when you can do it for free?\u00a0 While everyone else is forking over a bunch of dough for an Upper Bay cruise, you can simply hop on the Staten Island Ferry.\u00a0 It\u2019s always free and offers similar vistas to the New York cityscape.\u00a0 So, weigh anchor and chart a course for a true maritime adventure during your New York sightseeing trip.\u00a0 If you intend to travel cheaply in N.Y., then one of the more satisfying things to do in New York is catching a ride on the Staten Island Ferry!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Walk Across the Brooklyn Bridge<\/h4>\n

\"touring<\/p>\n

One of the most famous New York attractions comes in the form of a rather historic bridge that connects Brooklyn <\/a>to Manhattan:\u00a0 The Brooklyn Bridge.\u00a0 And, the bridge features heavily in most New York City tours.\u00a0 But, if you simply can\u2019t afford a guided tour, then you should be pleased to find out that you can simply walk across it for free.\u00a0 You\u2019ll appreciate the Brooklyn Bridge more while taking a stroll along its wooden footpath than you would by driving over it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hard Times2<\/sup><\/h4>\n

\"touring<\/p>\n

Experience Times Square for free during your budget New York vacation!\u00a0 As long as you feel comfortable knowing that you really can\u2019t do anything in Times Square without paying for it, then you can consider yourself prepared for the onslaught of purchasing opportunities.\u00a0 I mean, you can\u2019t even snap a selfie with the Naked Cowboy without reaching for your wallet.<\/p>\n

Not that I would want to do that, but you might, so I mention it here!\u00a0 Anyway, if you can resist the urge to give away all your money, then you should have a perfectly fine Times Square trip. Sit awhile, and take in the sounds and sights. When the lights turn on, that’s when Times Square truly comes alive.<\/p>\n
