Jimmy was a fantastic tour guide! He was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what he does. His enthusiasm made the tour engaging and enjoyable from start to finish. My family and I had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an informative and memorable tour.

Excellent experience. Booked for 10pm to see Manhattan by night. Building covered in mist so staff invited us to rebook the next day, which we accepted. Superb, clear views and great opportunity to see an iconic building. The exhibits area is an added bonus

The team at the Empire State Building was incredibly nice, attentive and friendly! The reason for our visit was our 21st wedding anniversary. RENATE in particular was so nice. Since we had rain and no view at all for the first 2 hours of our stay, we had a particularly nice chat with the staff. Renate sang for us, we later danced to level 80!!!! After another hour the weather cleared up and we had quite good visibility.

Head up to the Empire State Building's 86th-floor observatory for stunning views of NYC and use the binoculars for a closer look at the city below.

Explore the history of the building through informative exhibits and admire the Art Deco lobby with murals evoking the essence of the 1930s.

Enjoy a bird's-eye view of NYC landmarks like Central Park's green expanse and the Statue of Liberty during a 15-minute helicopter ride.

Enjoy live commentary from the pilot and marvel at the spire of the Empire State Building and the elegant Chrysler Building.

Fun Fact: The Empire State Building took just 1 year and 45 days to build, and the spire was originally designed as a docking station for airships.
