Top of the Rock was stunning! We also loved the bus tours and it is great value for money.

I did this my first two days of the trip and it is a great way to discover New York and find out where the hot spots are for the next couple of days.

This is by far the best way to see all of the sights in New York. The hop on hop off facility is great, and we didn't have to wait long at all for the buses. Having the tickets for Top of the Rock and the Liberty Island ferry made things much easier and quicker, and was the best money we spent during our visit. All but one of the tour guides used their knowledge and humour to make the trips very enjoyable. You must sit on the top deck to appreciate the tours, but remember to wrap up warm as it can be a bit breezy in autumn and winter - especially near the waterfront. Top of the Rock was the highlight of our trip, with spectacular views over the city. Big thanks to our guide for the Rockefeller Centre - he is an asset to the company and personalised the experience for us. We highly recommend this 48 hour ticket.

Why would you queue for the Empire State Building when the views from here are so fantastic, and they include the view of the Empire building!

The city is truly one that never sleeps. I was amazed at the hustle and bustle. It was fantastic.

This is an excellent way to see most of city, though there was almost too much to do in 48 hours! The bus tours were excellent. Top of the Rock was unmissable. It was easy for us to exchange our voucher.

This was my first trip to New York City. I had a wonderful time. I fulfilled my objective to see everything I could see in three days. I recommend to anyone who wants to explore New York to purchase a tour package, sit back, relax and enjoy the trip. Well worth the money.

We loved the tour and saw exactly what we wanted to see. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. We'd recommend taking the entire tour from the top section during busy times, as it was tough to get a seat on top if you got off then back on at a stop.
We didn't have to stand in line to purchase tickets for the extra stops, but we did not know we had to make a time-specific tour appointment for the Statue of Liberty, so we did not get to tour the base. If you want to tour the base, make sure to book that well in advance and plan around the time. Overall, a great time!
I enjoyed the bus tour, but on the uptown tour we were not allowed to hop-on, hop-off. In addition, I felt the tour guides were quite pushy about getting tips.
