I found both of them to be quite an entertaining experience; you really should set aside at least half a day to fully enjoy these museums. I think both have something incredible to offer, even without paying for the extras. Personally, I would have loved to visit the specific dinosaur section, but all the fossils I saw were impressive, and that was just a small part of the entire museum. The art museum was truly incredible; it had some lovely pieces with powerful messages. I went with my girlfriend, and she enjoyed it to the fullest. Even though I’m not that big of an art fan, I had an amazing time, and it was a wonderful experience, so I totally recommend it.

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.

Both experiences were very good, easy access to everything. Museum was huge and full, but quite interesting. The zoo is a bit smaller than I expected however it a wonderful and beautiful place, very well maintained and the animals seemed to be well taken cared of,

It was a impromptu trip for me. Got tickets while standing in line at the museum. Easy and fast. Once in, I hit every story, every corridor. Didn't miss a turn. Took me 4 1/2 hrs to complete. Loved everything about it. Bucket list ✔️

This museum is amazing—you won't be disappointed, from the dinosaur floor to the space exhibits on the lower level. If you're coming to New York, you should definitely check it out. Just go to the ticket counter, have your tickets scanned, and you're all set.
