Recent Traveler Reviews
Here is a selection of the most recent reviews of the NY SKYRIDE and Empire State Building Observatory submitted by actual travelers. Read what travelers liked, what they loved, and what they thought could be improved.
Booking by Viator made the visit to ESB smooth and enjoyable. We didnt book to jump the queue and Im glad bocause we didnt need it, the place was quiet as we arrived very early in the morning and the way in for Viator customers makes it easy. We found the skyride to be a bit uncomfortable and people with motion sickness should avoid although some of the footage is amazing.(we closed our eyes in parts!) When looking at the views from the top make sure you climb the extra two levels, we almost missed those. We had perfect weather and views but two days later the mist was down and views were non existent. Make sure you make the most of clear days for ESB and Top of the Rock, both fabulous.

Due to time constraints we didn't go to the top of this building (sadly) but we did the NY Skyride which was fun. Would definitely advise booking through Viator to avoid queues. Highly recommended.
