We had the absolute best weather and therefore a fantastic view of vibrant New York. The limited number of visitors made it possible to look out over the city from all sides in a completely relaxed way.

A simply magical experience at the Empire State Building! Getting inside with our Headout ticket was incredibly smooth and completely hassle-free. The interactive exhibits on the lower floors are fascinating, but the 360-degree view from the top observatory is truly breathtaking. It was an unforgettable highlight of my trip to New York. I highly recommend booking with Headout!

The experience has been good since I bought the tickets online. They always answered my questions prior to the tour. Today was the first day and it was good despite the rain. Tomorrow we will do the second day... hopefully it won't rain anymore.

I visited the Empire State Building 25 years ago on a high school field trip as a 16 year old kid from Ohio. Now as a parent myself of a 16-year-old child, I wanted to give my daughter the same breathtaking experience of seeing New York City from the world's most famous skyscraper, the Empire State Building! I was blown away by the updates. We loved walking through the second floor museum and there were many opportunities to take photos. We loved the picture opportunity with King Kong ! Also it was awesome to learn and see how the building was constructed in under 1 year back in 1930. Overall, it was well worth visiting again and we enjoyed every moment that we shared together on the observation deck of the 86th floor. Whether it's your first time or you're bringing your children for the first time it is something that you cannot miss out on experiencing. This is it, The Empire State building and there's nothing like it in the world!

Visiting the Empire State Building and going up to the 80th and 86th floors has been one of the best experiences of my life. Being up there makes you marvel at the vastness and beauty of the city. Go at sunset—it’s definitely the best time.

The Night Tour was amazing and the Guide (Aaron) was brilliant! It was great to hear all of his personal stories about living in the city and his love for this great city was clear. It was the highlight of my trip!
