If you\u2019re not quite sure how to go about doing this, or if you want to make sure that you are getting the most out of your trip, then here are some tips.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Time Your Trip<\/h2>\n<p>Even though there is plenty to do in the city, you should think about what you want to see and do the most. You might want to avoid the tourist hotspots if you can, mainly because they will be busy and they will not give you a good idea of what there is to do.<\/p>\n<p>Of course you should check them off your list, after all the main touristy spots must be visited at least once. So, be sure to plan for it and optimize your visit \u2013 preferably building your itinerary for the day around the same neighborhood to avoid long back and forth commutes.<\/p>\n<p>You might also want to try and make sure that you give yourself a lot of time. Three days is really the bare minimum, but if you can go for a week, then this is ideal.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to help yourself, then it\u2019s a good idea for you to plan some relaxing activities as well. It may be that you try to visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spencers.spa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spencer&#8217;s Spa<\/a> for some downtime, or that you try to just take some time to relax in your hotel.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, if you can focus on things like this, then you will find that the whole thing is way less stressful, which is so important.<\/p>\n<h2>Look Beyond Manhattan<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been following our tips, you know that there is far more to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/best-cocktails-in-brooklyn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NYC<\/a> than Manhattan. You will be able to enjoy your visit while saving a bit of money if you go way beyond this bubble.<\/p>\n<p>It may be that you cross into Brooklyn so you can enjoy a picnic, or that you go to the New York Botanical Garden, in the Bronx. Either way, the Bronx is also home to Little Italy, the real one that is, and it\u2019s easy for you to get an incredible Italian meal for way cheaper, too.<\/p>\n<p>If you can keep this in mind, you will soon find that it is much easier for you to get the experience you\u2019re going for.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19687\" src=\"https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Ellis-Island-Tips-visiting-nyc-for-the-first-time-Behind-The-Scenes-NYC.webp\" alt=\"View of Ellis Island with Manhattan in the back and a Flag of the United States\" width=\"1200\" height=\"817\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Ellis-Island-Tips-visiting-nyc-for-the-first-time-Behind-The-Scenes-NYC.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Ellis-Island-Tips-visiting-nyc-for-the-first-time-Behind-The-Scenes-NYC-400x272.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Ellis-Island-Tips-visiting-nyc-for-the-first-time-Behind-The-Scenes-NYC-1024x697.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Ellis-Island-Tips-visiting-nyc-for-the-first-time-Behind-The-Scenes-NYC-768x523.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Ellis-Island-Tips-visiting-nyc-for-the-first-time-Behind-The-Scenes-NYC-610x415.webp 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Get your Bearings<\/h2>\n<p>Getting a guided tour can be a good way for you to make the most out of your time in NYC, but at the same time, you also need to make sure that you\u2019re not wandering around aimlessly.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a good idea for you to book a bus tour, or even to get an overview of the city by visiting the most popular attractions. If you have limited time, then you may be able to see the most important sights first, and this gives you more time to explore on your own.<\/p>\n<p>Believe us \u2013\u00a0we\u2019re all about \u201cbehind the scenes\u201d, but the bus tour is worth so you check off the touristy spots. Plus, with kids, it\u2019s a great option.<\/p>\n<p>You will be more familiar this way, and you may also see how the city is laid out. If you want to avoid bus tours, then you can buy a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyc.gov\/nyc-resources\/nyc-maps.page\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">map<\/a> and venture on foot, but you should only do this if you are confident in your trip, and where it is you want to go. This is a great way for you to get a bit of freedom, so keep this in mind.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, Untapped New York is one of our best tour partners offering the most amazing off the beaten track experiences. So, be sure to check out their extensive options. We\u2019re absolutely sure you won\u2019t regret! You can start by going to the &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/behind-the-scenes-tour-abandoned-ellis-island-hospital\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Behind The Scenes Tour Of The Abandoned Ellis Island Hospital<\/a>&#8221; and, for the most adventurous ones, maybe a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthescenesnyc.com\/outdoor-activities-you-never-thought-about-doing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jetski Ride in the Hudson River<\/a> all the way to the Statue of Liberty and around the Manhattan island!<\/p>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The day has come to visit NYC for the first time!
