NRichard10 Posted August 29, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 29, 2013 How far is the port from the Megabus drop-off at 7th Ave & 28th St. Can you walk to the port or are there taxi's in that area? About how much would a taxi cost to the port from the above address? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marco Posted August 29, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 29, 2013 The Manhattan cruise terminal is basically on 12th Ave at 53rd St. So we're talking 5 blocks west, 25 blocks north. You could walk (I have) but with luggage, it's a schlep. I'd take a cab which should run about 12-15 $$$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there taxi's in the area of the bus drop-off or will we have to walk a bit to get one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langoustine Posted August 29, 2013 #4 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Are there taxi's in the area of the bus drop-off or will we have to walk a bit to get one? You will see many taxis on 7th Avenue. Don't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton Line Posted August 29, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Are there taxi's in the area of the bus drop-off or will we have to walk a bit to get one? Between 7th and 8th Ave and 31st and 34th Street is Penn Station for Amtrak/Long Island Railroad/NJ Transit so there are plenty of cabs in the area. No worries.

2CoolCanucks Posted October 27, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 27, 2013 What about taking the local bus from the Megabus drop-off to the port? Are there luggage restrictions to get on the local bus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can generally take on what you can carry, but be prepared if you are traveling at busy times to get some hostile looks/treatment. For the price, take a cab, It is probably about $10, and will have no trouble with your luggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted October 31, 2013 #8 Share Posted October 31, 2013 What about taking the local bus from the Megabus drop-off to the port?Are there luggage restrictions to get on the local bus? I take NYC buses all the time, but there is no, single bus that you can take from that Megabus stop to the Manhattan port. You do have to pack light and take 2 buses. It is likely you won't have a Metro card? So would need to purchase a transfer, being aware that the buses ONLY take coin, no bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
