In our last trip to the USA not too long ago, we were at a lost with what to do in New York since Tee’s Godfather was so busy that part of our trip, he was actually abroad in Dubai! We were left to be independent tourists and had to find our way about. And even though the Hubs came from New York, that was 10 years ago and all he knew was where to get the best beer. Baby stuff? Forget it.

Lucky for us, we randomly hopped onto a tour bus that we hitched from Times Square and it turned out to be the perfect way to see New York at a glimpse (who wants to do the details with a toddler in tow!). We had an old lady tour guide on the bus who told us the most hilarious stories about New York and although the Hubs and I were cracking up the whole time, most of the other tourists didn’t get the jokes. We figured that English was probably not their mother tongue. It was a really enjoyable introduction to New York despite the heat.

But when we go next time, I’d certainly check in with some online travel guides before venturing out blindly and hoping we’d get lucky again because I’d rather be safe than sorry. If we’re spending so much money traveling all the way to New York, there has to be zero margin for error. Besides, if I planned the trip, I could take advantage of discount tickets for activities in 23 cities like the Knotts berry farm tickets that are available from Trusted Tours and Attractions, just to give you an idea.

Plus, if you signed up for the newsletter from Trusted Tours and Attractions, you can have a chance at winning a $150 Magellan’s Gift Certificate as they are now having a special promotion till the end of August. So there you go. What are you waiting for? If you’re planning a vacation, you know where to go!
