Renzo Gracie Academy
I suggest wearing comfortable clothes for class; you might want to grab a gi if you plan to roll! They do have rentals, but it’s better to bring your own if you can.
Empire Cruises
I suggest bringing snacks and drinks - the prices on board can be kinda high. We got a little hungry during the trip and regretted not packing a picnic!
My advice is to book your tickets online in advance. I waited too long and ended up paying a bit more at the dock. Save yourself that extra cash!
I really recommend checking the weather before you go. We had amazing views, but the wind was super strong and it made it a bit hard to enjoy. Look for calm days if you can!
Team Prospect Martial Arts Academy
Suggest bringing a water bottle, especially if you're planning on doing a lot of training. I forgot mine and it was a long session without a drink. Trust me, it's a must!
Marcelo Garcia Jiu-Jitsu Academy
If you're a beginner, try to arrive around 10:30 AM for the noon class; it's less crowded and you'll get more personal attention. Trust me, it's worth it!
Rainbow Air Inc
I think you should look for combo deals with other attractions in the area. I ended up saving by getting a discount on the helicopter ride when I booked a tour of the falls plus some other local sites
On The Road Again Motorcycle School
Karate Do Ken Wa Kan
I suggest wearing comfy clothes and bringing your own water bottle. The dojo can get super warm, and you’ll want to stay hydrated during the classes. Plus, they don't always have extra cups available.
I think there are some good deals on classes if you buy a package. Check for promos on their website or ask when you get there. It can really save you some cash in the long run.
Above the Clouds Hot Air Balloon Rides
If you can, go for the sunrise flight! The views are unreal and the colors in the sky are just breathtaking. You won't regret it!
I think it's worth spending a little extra for the champagne toast afterward. It made the experience feel more special and everyone enjoyed it.
Goldfish Swim School - Gowanus
I suggest checking if they have any promotions or family packages when you sign up. I found I saved a little cash on my second visit by asking about returning customer discounts!
Silly Lily Fishing Station
Check the weather before you go! We were caught in a sudden rainstorm which cut our day short. I think it’s better to have a backup plan in case the weather doesn’t cooperate.
don’t overlook the rental equipment – it was totally worth it! i was hesistent at first, but the gear was in great shape and saved me time lugging my own down. definitely recommend giving it a try!
