Compared to the other observation towers, the organization on site is really poor. We had tickets for 7:30 p.m., but didn't get in until 8:15 p.m. and were sent away from the queue three times with different times. You have to stand while waiting, there are no seats. The summit itself is well designed for young people/children, with lots of fun extras. The view is also good. Conclusion: the summit itself gets 5 stars, the organization gets 3, making a total of 4.

Everything is very impressive. Although I initially came to please my 16- and 19-year-old daughters, in the end, they had to remind me to hurry up because I was "lagging behind." From the video sequence room to the smooth speed of the elevator, then through the various rooms to the rooftop, everything is a magnificent discovery that allows you to see New York like nowhere else. Enjoy!

It was wonderful from the moment I walked in, the logistics were fantastic. Everything was very well organized; you get on the elevator and it has sounds that make you feel like you're floating up to the 92nd floor in an instant. The view of NYC is spectacular! And playing with the balloons is simply amazing. I would definitely do it a thousand times over! Guaranteed fun!

An incredible experience in New York. It offers spectacular views of the entire city, especially at sunset. The mirrored surfaces make everything look even more impressive and unlike any other observation deck. I loved how they combine art and technology; it’s definitely not just about going up to see the view—it’s a fully interactive experience. I recommend allowing enough time to enjoy each room and take plenty of photos. It can get quite crowded, so it’s best to book in advance. But it’s absolutely worth it—one of the best attractions in New York. An incredible experience in New York. It offers spectacular views of the entire city, especially at sunset.

The entire experience was amazing. Worth every dime. The breakout rooms were all very special, the views were incredible. As a NYorker living outside of NY I captured some dope shots, can't wait to flood the timelines.
