As you can probably tell by now, I'm all about getting the best overall views of cities, and New York is no exception. In fact, it's probably the city that started it all!
Now I know that travelling can be very expensive, and you have to make cuts and sacrifices; so my number 1 tip for that in NY is if you're going to go to the top of either the Empire State building or the Rockefeller Centre, pick the Rockefeller Centre. Why? Well it allows you to get the Empire State building in your pictures, and although the Rockefeller Centre is one of my favourite buildings in New York, it's not the most aesthetic view.

Another top tip, it to try and venture out of the city, go over to Brooklyn and explore a more relaxed aspect of the state, and will also allow you to look back onto the city skyline.

Another way of getting a similar vantage point is by taking a boat cruise around the island. This will allow you to sit, relax, and get a tour of the island, often with commentary, to give you more of an insight to the the buildings history. Finally, try taking a look at getting a
New York Pass. This is a once payment, which allows you 'free' access to a number of museums, tours and the hop-on bus and water taxi. Not only will you save money, but you have the option to change plans as for some attractions you don't have to pre book your tickets.
