A: What should people do to make their visit to NewYork city safe and pleasant?

B: I think the biggest mistake many people make is trying to do so much in a short time. There are so much to see and do that you need to have a plan. It's best to start planning before you get here, so you have information about hotels, restaurants, sightseeing and so on. Visitors can use our website to get the information they need to start planning before they come here, or they can phone or fax us.

A: How safe is NewYork for tourists?

B: NewYork is a much safe place than many people think. In fact, it's the safest it's being for thirty years.

A: Oh, that's good to hear.

B: Yeah, but that doesn't mean people don't have to be careful. Tourists in NewYork ought to be careful, just like in any big city in the world. For students, I would say taveling in groups. If you get lost, it's easier as a group to find your way. You really shouldn't go off on you own if you can find someone to go with you. Another thing to remember is don't be afraid to ask for dierections even if your English isn't perfect. People often stop me on the street to ask me for directions. And it's not only for visitors, American visitors also have trouble finding their way around. And you will find New Yorkers are really very friendly.

A: Yes, I agree, we are.

B: Uh-huh.

A: Is there any other advice you can give visitors for the big apple?

B: Well, anther thing to remember is not to leave anything valuable in your car if you have one. Don't leave any suitcases on the bank seats or people can see them, and it's better not to even leave them in the trunk. Most cars are very easy to get into, so it's not worth a risk. But most people have a great time when they come to New York. And you will too if you use your common sense.
