GroupVerified booking4 days ago5/5I visited the Empire State Building 25 years ago on a high school field trip as a 16 year old kid from Ohio. Now as a parent myself of a 16-year-old child, I wanted to give my daughter the same breathtaking experience of seeing New York City from the world's most famous skyscraper, the Empire State Building! I was blown away by the updates. We loved walking through the second floor museum and there were many opportunities to take photos. We loved the picture opportunity with King Kong ! Also it was awesome to learn and see how the building was constructed in under 1 year back in 1930. Overall, it was well worth visiting again and we enjoyed every moment that we shared together on the observation deck of the 86th floor. Whether it's your first time or you're bringing your children for the first time it is something that you cannot miss out on experiencing. This is it, The Empire State building and there's nothing like it in the world!SSai N

CoupleVerified bookingYesterday5/5We visited SUMMIT One Vanderbilt in the afternoon, and it was an amazing experience. The views of New York City from the top were absolutely beautiful, especially with the afternoon sunlight. The glass rooms and unique reflections made the experience even more special. It’s definitely a place worth visiting if you want to see New York from a different perspective. Highly recommended!JJonatan C

SoloVerified bookingLast week5/5I visited the Summit One Vanderbilt on Friday, August 14, 2026, and the experience was spectacularly unforgettable. The open-air 93rd-floor deck delivered an overwhelming awesome views of New York City, and even with the summer crowds, everything moved smoothly. The attending Guides were very kind, friendly, and professional.
