We paid extra to go at sunset, unaware the clocked. Hanged the day we went , so we were unable to see the sunset. The cue to get up there was about an hour even tho we had booking times. So don’t plan another activity for after this cause you might not make it in time. The views were absolutely breathtaking and we loved it so much we paid to go again but to experience it at night. Best money we spent. 100% recommend

My Daughter and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Tom was our tour guide and he was so knowledgeable and enjoyable to listen to throughout the day. This was the highlight of our trip to NYC. Thank you !

Great deal. Highly recommended We were among the first in the morning. In bright sunshine. Booking with get your guide was completely problem-free. Everything done right

Fatal. We couldn't go up due to bad weather and they didn't provide an effective solution. Lost money and not being able to enjoy the view.

With the most beautiful view of southern Manhattan. Unfortunately a bit too crowded…
