Manhattan to Liberty

[notl342]

Thinking of taking the train from Buffalo to Manhattan, then over to Bayonne/ Cape Liberty. Any tips on transportation and accommodation? TIA!

You can continue on the (or a) train from Penn Station to Newark Penn Station in New Jersey and then take an Uber over to the pier. If you don't plan on staying in Manhattan you can stay overnight at the Doubletree thats attached to Newark Penn Station which is super convenient. 

 

From Manhattan with luggage I would just jump in an Uber or Lyft over to Cape Liberty. You will get a bunch of responses here outlining all sorts of public transportation options as well but frankly I think its a bit onerous with luggage, especially when I'm trying to get geared up to go on vacation.

Newark Penn station is the first stop after NY Penn station.

Are you looking for hotels in NYC or NJ?

 

Recommended car services from NYC are Carmellimo & Dial 7. If you can handle your bags, there is a public transit option from NYC to Bayonne that will leave you 2 miles from the terminal, which will require taxi/uber to the port.
