    Like I said, in my OPINION it’s not worth it. I’ve been there and used them, the bottom has like no AC and is loud as shit.

    And waiting 30 min is beyond a colossal waste of time, in 30 min you can probably walk to where you wanted to go anyway and enjoy a snack on the way and actually enjoy the city.

      They come every 30 minutes so it is just a matter of timing.

      Walk everywhere you want to go… in NYC…. In August…. As a first time visitor.

        lol dude are you working for the company or some shit?? Walking in NYC is awesome and super easy and safe. Riding on a old ass stinky bus crammed with a 100 other tourists isn’t as awsome as you seem to think.

          I love NYC and trust me walking around that city in August is not something a first time visitor wants to do.

        I usually just buy a transit card and ride the subway. It’s immersive to the local NYC culture and safe *some limits apply. I’ve seen and met some interesting locals in my visits, but I always go with “If its late, take a cab” is my rule for transportation, and also if the train car is empty it’s for a good fucking reason so avoid it as well.
