Great views and the Skyride was fun for something a bit different.
Really enjoyed this trip. The skyride was brilliant so glad we book it. It is like taking a helicopter ride over New York only much cheaper. Also we booked miss the queues, a must and worth every penny as you just walk in no waiting around. The Empire State Building is well worth a visit. It is great looking over the city. Brilliant day.
Totally loved this experience! Would recommend this to anyone. Staff was very helpful.
Glad that i went to see the Empire State building - things that are worth noting are
1. Skip the NY Skyride - not worth the time or money
2. Be prepared to queue to get up to the 80th floor and then back down again
Once your finally up on the Observatory be prepared for crowds of people looking out over NY
Saying that me and my family had a wonderfully time and i'm glad i made the effort.
A MUST DO!!!
It was very nice, amazing and I wanna come back as soon as I can!!
Fantastic. we did this on the first day and It was good watching the skyride to work out where everything was that we wanted to see. The Observatory was something else....it was amazing to see everything from the top. Luckily we had an idea of the weather and did this on our first day just as the sun was setting, any other day and the fog would have ment we could be anywhere as there would be no view. worth bearing in mind if you are pre booking.
first visit to new york fo us - this is a must do tour amazing views we went up just as it was getting dar so had the best of day and nighttime views from the top. woul reccomend to anybody
Excellent, got there early 09.00am no queues.
Absolutely brilliant and well organised. pre-booking is a must and I cannot thank all involved for making our visit up to the viewing a speedy, hassle free and memorable experience.
Excellent Expirence espeacially with the Viator tickets we did not have to wait in lines "recommended"
very worthwhile
cant say much about the skyride or it will spoil it for you so just do it! the observatory part is iconic and shouldnt be missed!!

Great way to see one of the landmarks of New York. The fast pass was just what we needed on the day and allowed us to get to the top very quickly.
