I was nervous about doing the air train, but would recommend. Very easy and there was plenty of room on the train for bags! Not expensive at all and fastest with NYC traffic!

Always love a travel day!! Hope you’re having the best time lads❤

Loved the first holiday vlog, New York reminds me of the TV Programme cheers. The hotel is amazing and that food, well I think you've eaten your holiday allowance.🤣🤣 Here's to the next vlog. ❤❤

Great vlog guys. I went to New York in June and it was so hot and stuffy. I couldn't believe how noisy it was, it literally is the city that never sleeps. I loved it though. Can't wait to watch your videos 🎉🎉🎉

Yay! New York has always been a major dream of mine so I'm loving this vlog series! ❤

Glad you had the experience of a new York taxi ride😊😮. Yes it is something everyone needs to do, the driving on the divider line and zipping around pedestrians, other cars and the myriad of tour busses and public busses should last along time.

Great vlog guys 👍🏻 Love the New York vibe ❤ & those tacos 🌮 looked delicious 😋 - looking forward to the next one already 😆 xx

Love this, just got back from two weeks in Japan so it's nice to see you off on your travels again! Been to NYC a couple of times, love it there!

So excited to follow along with your travels! I can confirm that your hotel room made mine look like Harry Potters cupboard under the stairs, you’re lucky you had a double bed, mine was a single for two people at best😂 enjoy your travels, can’t wait to see more😊

The lounge that you was talking about is actually available for anyone who’s booked in 1903 or escape . We booked into escape last year and then went to chill in that bit for abit

I loved this vlog,the smiles on your faces just said everything about how you were feeling at that time. We were exactly the same, just couldn’t stop saying “ I can’t believe we are here”. Hey Leigh we actually went to Harry Potter and the cursed child and it was so good. Looking forward to the rest of your adventures.Thanks Leigh & Nick your work is so much appreciated xx

Great travel day vlog. So happy you got a trip to New York Leigh. Looking forward to all the coming videos. Another British vlogger I was - It’s Em - stayed in the same hotel. She and her husband were there between Christmas and New Year. She kept taking her coat off because it was so warm 😂😂😂

Great vlog. Stayed in that hotel a few years ago now. Loved being so near to the Empire State Building. Great location. Brought back some great memories 👌 😊 x

Omg, the cab story brought back a memory. 3 of us traveling in the back of a compact car and the driver kept slamming on the breaks. We ere all queasy when got to the hotel and the bonus moment was when the trunk lid came down and booked me on the forehead.

great to see you both so giddy with excitement x x

Think the lounge behind the check in area is where they took us when it was busy because my daughter’s autistic and didn’t like the noise. They let me have a private booth area for just us three. You walked round the corner to the food area. It was so nice there. Very relaxed and quiet. I was really grateful to them for helping me.

We went to New York in a February as it was so cold and snow everywhere. However, it did make going around Central Park in a horse & carriage with a rug over our lap so nice.

Felt your excitement….my last trip to New York was just before Christmas 2017….. and we had almost the same view of the Empire State Building from our hotel window….. it was magical at Christmas, fulfilled a dream and was everything I wanted it to be….. very exciting city…. Enjoy your adventure x

New York stole my heart last week after two weeks there for work and fun. Miss is so much. Shame you weren’t a little later for the heatwave their currently having there but it’s a great time whatever the weather! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I really enjoyed this. Particularly since I went to New York for the first time at the end of March. I flew with Virgin from Heathrow and stayed at the Renaissance Hotel in Times Square itself, which was amazing. Passport control at JFK was brutally long (2 hours +). But I took the Airtrain to Jamaica, then the Long Island Rail Road to the brand new Grand Central Madison terminal. It took just 40 minutes from JFK and cost around $18 in total. I’d really recommend that.

I watched another vlog this week talking about a larger than normal New York hotel room, some guy called Theme Park Bazza maybe you’ve heard of them! Looking forward to rest of the series.

Another great travel day video. Feel the excitement. Nice edit Leigh

Oh, Nick! 💯on the taxi. I rode from JFK into Manhattan once and I will never do it again. It was ridiculously expensive and I got sick as a dog. I took the subway/train on the way back. $80 for a cab vs. like $10 for the subway/train. And no puking. No contest.

I remember the Constant sirens when I was there going alseep at night was so loud 😂😂

Almost had tears in my eyes for you , when could see how exited you both where and happy you where to be in NYC . It’s fab isn’t it ! We we’ve been a few times , always in September which is so beautiful there then. I recognised your hotel as soon as I saw you walking up to it and realised it was actually wher we stayed , many years ago , it was called the. Metro then . The rooms had the same facade on the walls but obviously now updated . We sat on the roof top bar , many a night and yes the state building did light up different colours . I’m so exited for you both , can’t wait to see the rest of your trip and exiting time for you and me both . Take care . Sending hugs 🤗 xx

Great vlog guys! You shouldn’t have had to pay any more than the fix $82 taxi fee ( $75 plus $7 peak time) all tolls and congestion are included in the $82 and then any tips on top. One place I wish we visited was Los Taco 🌮 Enjoy the rest of your trip! x

NYC taxi drivers do drive crazy! One of the funniest cab rides back to JFK we’ve ever had with the taxi driver shouting at anyone who got in his way🙈 Cheaper than a taxi is getting the Air train to Jamaica Station then the Long Island Railway to Penn Station. But if your staying in Midtown they now how a direct line from Jamaica Station to Grand Central it leaves every 15 mins. Both are much better & nicer than getting the Subway into the city. Xx

We are off to New York in May so all the info you are giving is invaluable. We are staying Airbnb in West New York so hopefully a bit quieter 😊taxi info from airport also so helpful. Is Uber a better bet?. And los tacos is Def on our list now. Can't wait to see what happens next

The building from "Superman" is the Daily News Building at 220 W 42nd street

We stayed at Kixby Hotel last June for my birthday and had the same view of the Empire State 🥰 and the rooftop bar was closed in June as well 😂

My happy place & you visited one of my fave places Los Tacos No1, The yellow taxi we went was also driven by a lunatic , he actually aqua-plained about 30ft driving in torrential rain whilst my family were asleep in the back of the taxi , they recall nothing i on the other hand still recall the sheer horror of ski-ing on tarmac and water 🤣🤣 looking forward to more NYC Vlogs - and fingers crossed for an Ellens stardust diner visit.....

Jennifer and I went to New York last September. Our taxi journey into manhatten was exactly the same as yours, horrible journey. I dont know how they get away with it. We stayed just across from madison Square garden. Walked for miles every day. Best things?, empire state building, central park, and boat trip to statue of liberty. 911 memorial is worth a look, horrible feeling when there. Great videos guys, hope you are well. Take care.

We paid $137 return for a private car, plus we tipped the driver, really good service. The building with the new year eve ball on has been empty for more than 10 years the guide said, with no gas or electricity connected and the screen outside pays the ground rent. We went to Los Tacos in Chelsea market.

Thats interesting to know about the building. Youd think every building in that area would be in high demand

It’s been over 25 years since I’ve been in New York City, so there’s a lot that’s different, of course, as well as many things that are the same. We usually stayed closer to the theatre district a majority of times I went there back in the 70s, and I once stayed with a friend at an apartment on the Upper West Side. Back then Times Square didn’t have all of the screens, though there were still plenty of lights. It sounds like what you had was authentic New York-style cheesecake. To most New Yorkers, what you’re used to as cheesecake is not cheesecake at all. Anyway, it’s an exciting city, and I hope I get a chance to go back again someday.

So fun watching you guys in NYC for the first time. Amazing city. The airtrain-Long Island Railroad to Grand Central or Penn Station is the quickest best way to get into the city. Only $15. 20 minutes. Recommendation for a fun gay classic piano bar on 58th between 2nd and 3rd. Classic NYC. Fun for after dinner. Also, try to take a tour of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Viator has a 2.5 hour tour which is brilliant. Have a blast.

I really enjoy Premium seating on airplanes, its the way airlines used to be before they shrunk the size of everything so they can now shove in more passangers.

Always travel with a couple of packets of biscuits and a tube of Pringles in the case 😋

You got here when the weather was bipolar😂 It was very cold that week! NYC drivers can be very crazy😅 The train ride / air train to JFK is definitely cheaper (no more than $12 pp. That’s $8.25 for air train, $2.75 train +$1 for metro card fee) than taxi or Uber. But it can be a little of a hassle when you have a lot of luggage. But worth it for saving $$$! Hope you had loads of fun❤ xDebbie
