How To See New York City in 3 Days Without Stress: Jon Barr’s NYC Video Itinerary Guide

See the Best of NYC in Just 3 Days (Without Feeling Overwhelmed!)

In this stress-less New York City video guide, YouTuber Jon Barr takes viewers through a complete 3-day itinerary. He explores “The Big Apple” without the stress. Known for his practical travel tips and relatable style, Jon walks us through a well-organized adventure that balances iconic landmarks with off-the-beaten-path gems—and yes, there are clean bathrooms, too!

On Day 1, he starts strong with breakfast at Tick Tock Diner before visiting the Nikola Tesla Museum and relaxing in Bryant Park. Then it’s on to the New York Public Library and a stunning view from Top of the Rock. He also squeezes in a lesser-known green space: the Ford Foundation Atrium Garden.

Jon’s guiding philosophy is simple: “It’s all about walking smart, not fast.” He times each segment to make sure visitors can soak in the vibe without feeling rushed. On Day 2, the focus shifts downtown with powerful moments at the 9/11 Memorial, the Oculus, and ferry views of the Statue of Liberty. Chinatown and the High Line round out the afternoon, followed by tasty local eats at Food Gallery 32.

Day 3 takes us across the East River into Brooklyn—ideal for photo takers. You’ll get shots of DUMBO’s Manhattan Bridge view, Jane’s Carousel, and sweeping skyline scenes from Time Out Market. Then it’s back to Manhattan by way of the Roosevelt Island Tramway, ending the day with atmospheric stops like the Smallpox Hospital ruins and FDR Four Freedoms Park.

As Jon puts it, “NYC is best explored by neighborhood—it keeps things exciting and manageable.” The video isn’t just a list—it’s a mood. You’ll feel the city’s rhythm, taste its culture, and maybe even find a moment of peace in the crowd.
