We purchased skip the line tickets and they worked out great. We visited on a Sunday and the crowd was very light which made for a more enjoyable experience. The team worked very hard and efficiently to keep everyone moving. At the top they have an awesome surprise when you get off the elevator (WOW). Once you get started on your self guided tour you can see some amazing views along with plenty of informative information posted. I definitely recommend going.

Love the experience at One World Observatory and 9/11 Memorial & Museum. The 9/11 Memorial & Museum was a very meaningful and heartbreaking experience. Especially having an in-depth knowledge behind the building and construction of the Twin Towers and also the stories of the survivors and those who have perished from the 9/11 attack. The One World Observatory was a wonderful experience. It was a breathtaking experience to see the 360 view from the top.

We rode the bus on Nov 7. It was our very first time to NYC. My brother is disabled and is in a wheelchair. The bus staff were absolutely fantastic. They helped with my brother. They were informative about the locations and places to enjoy. All the staff we encountered had great energy and you could tell they enjoyed their job. The bus was a big highlight of our trip. We will definitely be back!

    They sold so many tickets that every stop had lines of people to get on and the buses would keep telling us they were full already. At one stop after getting passed up by a 3rd bus we just started walking. Walked 25,000 steps that day. Never was informed we could get an audio app. Audio on bus was 50/50 as to whether it even worked

    The tour was great but Headout is not a credital company. They charged me twice for the same tour and will not refund my money. It was only 3 people on the tour but they have charged me twice. The bus and the drivers were great but company itself SUCKS
