An unforgettable experience in every way. Let's talk about the view—it's a real feast for the eyes, and there's nothing quite like the sheer joy of seeing New York in all its glory.

Empire State Building is way more than just a observation point! It´s a museum, with multible exhibitions and scenes. From the building of Empire State to the movies it has been a part of. The most famous is King Kong from the early 1930´s. The Observation deck gives you a perfect 360 degrees view of Manhattan and New York, and it´s truly spectacular!

The visit was easy without a wait at all since the weather wasn't that great. We were told ahead of time that there wouldn't be a view due to the cloud cover but we still enjoyed being up in the clouds. It was beautiful without a view so I imagine on a clear day it would be amazing.

I was able to get the tickets online very quickly; it was really easy to pay for them online. They were emailed to me right away. And finally, the visit to the Empire State Building—even though it’s an old building, I really loved the organization and, of course, the spectacular views.

We really enjoyed the ride around New York red route. We thought the commentary was great and informative. The New York music/songs were a fab idea.
