From the MAYOR OF NEW

As mayor of New York City, I am thrilled to join City Guide in welcoming you to this amazing city. Since 1982, City Guide has been the premier publication for visitors planning a trip to the Big Apple.

The tourism industry this past year has looked very different than in previous years. The COVID-19 pandemic slowed tourism virtually to a halt, leaving a significant impact on the $72 billion industry and the 400,000 jobs it supports. Annual visitors to our city dropped from a record high of 66.6 million in 2019 to 22.3 million in 2020. As our city embarks on the path to recovery, bringing the tourism sector back better than ever is one of my top priorities.
