After many visits to NYC this was my first tour of the Empire State Building as well as my 11 yr old son first visit in the city. We had a great time and I'm sure my son will never forget it...

What a surprise, this site is not to be missed. You will never forget the view of the city. We had a special time. What was missing was that the teacher's ticket salesman told us to arrive early and we had to return at the appointed time.

Tickets are much too expensive for a few video displays downstairs. No way of justifying price. Live view as always is excellent.

Very smooth and efficient experience. Everything went well from controllable aspects to uncontrollable ones such as weather... and children. As a lifetime resident of New York I shocked I've never done this before. Attached is a photo of a silly piglet.
