KEWR to Manhattan, best ground transportation
Family is spending a few days in NYC and looking for suggestions on the best option for ground transportation.
We're thinking Uber or a cab, and would prefer to avoid public transportation (dragging suitcases) or ride share (too many stops).
Anyone with local knowledge have suggestions or the best way to get from EWR to the stock exchange (with suitcases in tow)?

Uber is probably your best bet; your wait time outside of baggage claim on the curb will probably be about 5 mins, and the rates are competitive with other options. We did limo service from EWR to Carnegie Hall for a concert, but I'd opt for Uber if it wasn't a "night out".

Another option----a real car service.
Example: https://www.carmellimo.com (They also have a phone app)

I hear Golden Touch is a great service with only top quality vehicles!
Sorry I had to. 😝 I'd do Uber Black or Uber SUV....They are actual car services who do Uber on down time. Prices are more than Uber X or XL but it'll be clean and safe

You can take the Air train to nj transit, take that to Newark Penn Station then get on the PATH and take that to World Trade Center.
Or you can take NYC airporter for about 10$ I think to penn station, and take the subway downtown.
Or you can just take an uber, which will be pretty expensive with the tolls.
