If you want to see New York, The New York Pass is a must have. We had a 3 day pass and it saved us a fortune in entrance fees and got us discounts wherever we went!!

You definitely get your money's worth with the 2-day pass. You still have to do some planning in order to go on tours, e.g., cruise times, NBC tour, which means knowing the times they are available and getting your tickets in advance. Overall, we felt the 2-day pass paid for itself.

The main advantage of the pass was the money saved compared to the listed price. We had a two day pass. However, we still had to queue like everyone else! Best advice I could give would be to make a schedule for each attraction and stick to it; you will find you run out of time very quickly in NYC.

It was worth using - enjoyed it.

Good value, but due to security procedures i.e. length of time, we were unable to make the best use of it.

Our 3rd trip to New York; 1st with a pass. Fantastic value. Where to swipe card at attractions could have clearer with better signage.

I was disappointed that you couldn't pre-book any tours or the ferry for Statue of Liberty to get a pass inside the pedestal. We weren't able to pass through any lines - very long line at Statue of Liberty. They were sold out of the NBC Tour until much later in the day. They didn't have the Harbor Cruise at night during the weekdays and it's discontinued after November. We did get our money's worth though and it is still a good value!

The pass came in real handy. Too bad there were so many people wanting to do the same thing, so lines were long on some things; others were fine.

I think this is great value for money. We had a great holiday in NYC. We went to the Empire State Building once in the day and again the next day for the night view, which was fantastic!

The New York pass was a great purchase. My wife and I visited NYC, and we were able to jump a few lines because of having this pass. The only thing is, the pass should include entry to the Statue of Liberty and not just the ferry.

Wish I hadn't spent the money for the second day, because we never used it with all the other things to do in NYC. But definitely worth the money when you calculate the costs of the attractions individually.

Harbour tour was OK, but it knocked us out of doing some other things because the bridge would not raise, and we had to double back, so it took a lot longer.

I'd buy this again when we go back to New York. It's worth it as long as you plan your journey to make sure you make use of the card. One thing to be aware of: the ticket gets you into some of the museums, but on Fridays, some of them have free entry anyhow.
