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.

The line to catch the elevator moved quickly and was well managed. The three observation floors offer a ton. The views outside cover every direction. The deck is protected by glass, which shields you a little from the wind. The beam experience was worth it! You may enjoy sit at the cafe inside or visit the souvenir shop. There is so much to enjoy! The building has multiple restaurants in the basement, too! A wonderful option all around!

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!

Above the heartbeat of New York, on steel and sky at the Top of the Rock, we found a moment that belonged only to us. Sitting on The Beam, hand in hand with my wife, suspended between earth and dreams, love felt fearless, timeless, and infinite. These photos hold a memory unforgettable, unrepeatable, forever ours.

    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.
