Practical Information
Tickets & Reservations
Purchasing tickets online for the most popular attractions is strongly advised to bypass queues, particularly for the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Top of the Rock, and MoMA. Many venues offer timed-entry tickets. City passes (CityPASS, New York Pass, Go City) bundle access to several sites at substantial discounts.
What to Wear
There is no formal dress code in New York, though smart casual attire is appropriate for upscale dining and Broadway performances. For sightseeing, prioritize comfortable clothing and sturdy walking shoes. During the winter months, pack a warm coat, gloves and a scarf.
Accessibility
The majority of major New York attractions are fully accessible to visitors with disabilities. The subway system is gradually expanding elevator access, though not every station is equipped — consult the MTA accessibility map. All MTA buses feature accessibility ramps. Wheelchair-accessible taxis can be reserved in advance.
Photography
Taking photographs is generally permitted at outdoor attractions and in most museums. Certain museums (such as MoMA and the Met) allow photography without flash. Always verify specific venue rules. Drone operation is prohibited throughout New York City.
Baggage Storage
The majority of museums and attractions provide coat check facilities or lockers. At the Met, MoMA, and the American Museum of Natural History, coat check is complimentary. Oversized bags may be subject to security screening upon entry.
