Planning is an important step to getting the most out of the pass, especially when visiting a city like New York. In order to see all of the exciting attractions, tourists may find it necessary to create and stick to a schedule.

It's best to use the guidebook to review hours of operation and locations to map out a schedule of events you'll want to see each day.
