based on 645 reviews

I can't recommend this pass highly enough. It is such a really useful pass that gave extra surprises on our visits including an evening visit to Empire State building. Overall, it was excellent value for money. Well worth the money and we have already recommended to others several times. Very glad we bought it. We got an evening admission to the Rockefeller observatory, spectacular views during golden hour, great photo opportunity. Additional exhibits in the Natural History museum were also covered. Having the pass also gave us structure for making sure we visited the attractions covered. Easy process to buy and use the pass.

Good value pass. Cheaper on Get your guide than other websites (and direct). Easy to book in advance. In the winter I would book any view points as late as possible to check the forecast. We had poor views from the Empire state building having booked a few days in advance (forecast changed)

The guide was super knowledgeable. Such an informative and enjoyable day. Only downside was the early start and wait … we arrived at the advised time of 8.15 but security only opened at 9am and there was then a wait for the ferry.

Excellent city pass with very efficient and fast entry to main attractions and offering a good discount. Even the attractions where reservations were needed we could entry immediately after arrival.

The city pass was great value for money and gave us a big discount on our visits. Was simple to use and allowed us quick entry into the various tours.
