TriBeCa walking tours start at around US$50 per person, while New York City sightseeing tours that also visit TriBeCa begin at about US$90 per person.

The best things to do in TriBeCa include filming location walking tours (everything from Ghostbusters to Succession was filmed here), art gallery crawls, and riverfront sightseeing in Hudson River Park. The TriBeCa Festival draws crowds every year, while the area’s restaurants are a perennial attraction.

The most popular time to visit TriBeCa is in the late spring, when the TriBeCa Festival comes to town—a neighborhood tradition for more than two decades, the film and culture festival is hosted in early June. Summer is also a great time to stroll TriBeCa’s parks and book a walking tour.

The name TriBeCa is short for “Triangle Below Canal Street.” Similar to other abbreviated New York City area names—like SoHo (South of Houston Street), DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass), and Nolita (North of Little Italy)—it first arose among neighborhood residents in the 1970s.

It’s easy to get to TriBeCa using public transportation. The neighborhood is served by numerous New York Subway lines, including the 1, 2, 3, A, C, E, N, Q, R, and W. PATH trains, which link Manhattan and New Jersey. Many bus routes also frequent the area.
