Prachtig uitzicht

Na even in de wachtrij genieten van de mooie uitzichten over de stad. Aan alle kanten te zien. Zo krijg je een goed beeld hoe de plattegrond is.

I enjoy going and being a tourist in my own city. It was so beautiful. The museum going to elevators made the experience so muc

The staff was great. I went to the top. If going to do it go all the way up. I would definitely do it again. There is a cute shop on your way out.

Awesome Modern World Wonder

Made a quick stop at this modern wonders of the world. The views were absolutely worth it! Standing at 1,454 feet, it’s incredible to think this was once the tallest building in the world for nearly 40 years.

Empire State Building is ,well worth the visit.

The tour proceeds smoothly through the levels visited. The 360 degree views from the higher floors are excellent. The photos and audio visuals are interesting and informative. At times the crowds can get a bit busy but trhe staff keep things moving fairly well

Empire State Building tour

Be sure to go up To the 102nd floor. It may cost extra but is so worth it. Sun was going down so was in our eyes, morning might have been better

I was disappointed that...

I was disappointed that we couldn't able to view due to the cloud. We can not change the date thru our booking via third parties.

Great view from both floors

The view is the same from floor 89 and 102. The difference is, you are indoors on the 102th. It is not worth the extra money though. The staff on the 102nd offered to takes pictures of everyone, which was very nice!

Not as good as other skyline viewing experiences

What a disappointment. We arrived for our timeslot only to be told we had to join the end of the que with everyone else (regardless of whether or not we had tickets). Staff were so unfriendly, no welcome and just kettled you towards the lifts - of which you have to take 2 to get to the top. You visit the Museum first so if you’re hoping to do sunset factor in you need an hour before you actually want to be up on the platform. There was no opportunity to visit the Museum after. Once we made it up to the top 1/4 was sectioned off for an event we had not been notified of when we booked our tickets and staff were snappy trying to keep the area clear. There are better skyline views in NYC including top of the rock and my favourite the world trade observatory. I’d recommend check out these before you waste your money on this.

Very cloudy day and no visibility so we never went.

Never went on this. We purchased tickets in advance and it was a very cloudy day on day of event so we never went up the Empire State building because we wouldn't be able to see anything. To late to cancel so we just never showed. My recommendation is to purchase on same day you want to go to make sure weather is nice.

Skip the lines! Buy Express tickets!

We paid for the express tickets and had the “red carpet” treatment with priority lines with no waits time.

One of the most beautiful buildings in the world

Paris has the Eiffel Tower, Sydney has the Opera House…New York has the Empire State Building. Our hotel suite looked out at it and from all over the city it is there to behold. We saw it at sunrise, sunset and putting on a magic light show every night. Then on my birthday we visited it and the breathtaking views it offers. The Empire State Building has a sole. I hope to see it again someday soon as I miss it terribly.

Conseguiram a proeza de transformar um observatório em um lugar mágico. Estão de parabéns!

O lugar me surpreendeu positivamente. Quase que eu não fui. A opinião geral é de q os outros observatórios são melhores pq neles você vê o Empire State. Mas gente, não caiam nessa. O lugar é muito interessante. Você entra no elevador e ele já é uma atração à parte. Depois você vai passando por uma parte histórica que é muito interativa e traz muitas memórias. Pra mim que não sou muito fã de observatórios foi uma experiência muito positiva. Lá de cima a vista tem grades mesmo, como muitos reclamam. Eu não vi problema. Tem umas partes com aquecedores que são muito bem-vindos, até porque eu fui no inverno. Eu fui nele e no SUMMIT. Se tivesse que escolher só um para voltar, seria no Empire, com certeza.
