Best travel destinations from this list.?

Question

I am looking to do some sightseeing. I have never done any travel before and i am eager to give it a try. I want to visit museums, zoos, and historical landmarks. My only concern is how i would get from point A to B in the city.

I have narrowed the list down to these three. If you have a better spot in mind please feel free to recommend it.

1. Chicago

2. New York City

3. Washington D.C

Answer 1

New York City...It's easy to get around.  Just get some maps of the subway, etc, use public transportation or walk.  Don't use cabs if you can avoid them, they take forever and are kind of a waste of money.  And don't forget to watch where you're going if you're on the sidewalk. I don't know for sure, but there are probably some city tour busses that go between the zoos, museums and parks.  Just try to order whatever brochures and maps you can get for free off the New York tourism website.  

Answer 2

I love New York!

Answer 3

Philadelphia! It has everything that you're looking for and more. There are more historical landmarks in Philadelphia than the other 3 combined. The zoo is great and more accessible than the Bronx zoo in NY. It is also less WINDY than Chicago. There are trains, buses, metros etc., it is a very easy city to get around, great restaurants, and a plethora of museums. Check out the link below.

I lived near Philadelphia most of my life and am also very familiar with NYC and Washington - Philadelphia wins.
