With Thanksgiving two days away and Christmas right around the corner, New York City is set to see an uptick in tourists. There is no shortage of sites to see and places to visit when you are in the Big Apple, but does the city live up to expectations for those visiting? WOR Reporter Natalie Migliore joined the WOR Morning Show to talk about what tourists think of the city and how it compares to the perceptions from the outside.
“It is a very nice, safe, and walkable city compared to what you see on TV or in old movies,” one visitor told Migliore. Another tourist didn’t have as nice of an experience: “The subway is just as grimy as we thought but it got us around.”
Migliore spoke with another vacationer who thinks New York City is a cut above the rest: “I’ve been all over the world and there’s no city like it.”
