This is one of my favorite driving videos, and it just so happens to be taken on my birthday.

what a neat idea---driving full circle around Manhattan. Definitely going to do this someday!

Thanks for the video . Blessings.

Totally enjoyed this video, thanks much!

Amazing ！

What a beautiful shoot, I've always wanted to drive in other cities, and New York has always been my favorite, one day I'll do it, rent a car and do this trip around the island. Have you ever thought about making a video driving at night, the city lights must be sensational. Parabéns 👏

i love your videos . keep going

i love this.... i just checked . There are 118 398 taxi or for hire vehicles in New York.... Belgium has 10089...i can't imagine how big New york must be....

The video is beautiful , clean roads and streets are fascinating . A lots of buildings and the offices x the cafeterias are arrangeding along the road . The weather is sunny and beautiful.

Thank you very much taxidriver. Great tour!!

New York City is so beautiful.

Thank you from Germany for the great ride, brings back memories of my NY vacation and a cab ride from Manhattan to Frederick Douglass Blvd along the East and Harlem river. 👍🥲 PS: I drove a taxi myself for 25 years in Germany, the trip was a nice experience!

What a fine day to have a drive. Well done!

Fantastic, thank you. I drive daily in London England, New York is also beautiful seen from the road.

What an incredible driving adventure around Manhattan! It's mesmerizing to see the city from different angles and witness its vibrant energy. From the iconic skyline to the bustling streets, you captured the essence of Manhattan perfectly. Driving around the island must have been an exhilarating experience, taking in the diverse neighborhoods and landmarks. Thank you for sharing this unique perspective and allowing us to virtually join you on this exciting journey! I am your new friend.

This video is great, I have driven into NYC from CT on business a couple of times alongside the Hudson river and into Chinatown and out again, but being the driver you can't take the sights in whilst watching the road. NYC is so much more car friendly than London with restrictive cycle and bus lanes everywhere plus thousands of cameras waiting to catch you out if you make the slightest mistake. I learnt to drive in London in the mid 60's and used to drive in fairly regularly on business up until the 2000's, but not anymore its a nightmare. Driving in the states is more relaxing and less stressful except maybe at peak times. Thanks for a brilliant free sightseeing ride, its as if I am in the passenger seat with you.

The best ride ever ! , Thanks NYC Taxi Driver 🤟

Superb scenic thank you so much. Are the inner streets and avenues as much of a breeze to drive on a Sunday (provided there is no accident to be cleared)?

Beautiful Manhattan!👍👏🥰❤️🇺🇸

Good to see One World Trade Center rising in the background at 19:14, I really miss the Twin Towers.😢😢

Manhattan Nyc, the center of glamur and the historic birthplace of New York City is beautiful. From the evening drive, passing by the sparkling streets , looks awesome...

I don't usually mind it if someone's in the left lane, I just pass them and move on with my day. Most New Yorkers have the same mentality, we have places to be and we don't have the energy to get mad if they're not trying to piss us off. Also, this is on a Sunday morning where traffic is relatively light; it's much crazier on the weekdays. Mileage Mike did a great video on driving tips in New York City. It's a good watch and he's mostly spot on with it.

They create so much traffic and chaos. Pure awful and asshole drivers.

Interesting fact 2:25 Bridge is the older bridge in the state and one of the older in the country, is older than the brooklyn bridge...The High Bridge.

Cool video, It's nice to see Manhattan from this perspective. Just 1 question. WTF was going on at around the 19 min mark where there is the massive police, ambulance and fire department presence. Most of them standing around so it didn't seem too serious. It just seems a huge response for something minor.
