Breathtaking Empire State: Skip-Line 102nd Deck VIP Access

Great experience very informative presentation at beginning. straight forward entry with ticket . Great views of downtown manhattan

The Empire State is definitely a must visit in New York. Personnel was very friendly and supportive. The view amazing. A really good experience. Really recommend

Way overpriced and drawn out, if you must see the Empire State Building view then go for it… but once was enough for me.

We visited the Empire State Building in July and decided to splurge on the express pass — absolutely worth it! The Saturday morning crowds were huge, and skipping the long lines made our visit so much smoother. The views from both the 86th and 102nd floors were spectacular. It was a hot and clear morning, with just a touch of haze that added a dreamy quality to the skyline. All of the staff were extremely helpful and friendly, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. A must-do experience for anyone visiting New York!

The iconic, wonderful Empire State Building, surely one of the most (if not THE most) recognisable silhouette. Not "only" an engineering masterpiece so many years ahead of its time, but also an Art Deco treasure, the likes of which we're unlikely to see again. It's a treasure. My wife and I have been on the (excellent) tour previously, but for our 30th Anniversary, we booked ourselves onto the VIP Tour as a special treat. It totally lived up to billing, with our amazing (actually Empire State legendary) host, Renita (my wife's name is Renata, so everyone hit it off right from the get go!). What an amazing lady, she did not leave a stone unturned during what was such a detailed tour. We got to look "behind the scenes" which, as an Engineer, was a sublime experience that I certainly wasn't presumptuous enough to expect. (Special thanks also to Mr Dailey, Director of Engineering, for his very generous time during our visit, which was very much appreciated). Of course, the headliner 102nd floor Viewing Gallery, Champagne reception, a photographic meeting with a certain King Kong were all wonderful as well. Above all, Renita made us feel most welcome, we really did get the "red carpet treatment". Again, my most heartfelt thanks to her. I would sincerely recommend the tour to anyone who loves this building and wanting to go the extra mile. It's not cheap but is worth every cent.

Excellent experience. Truly great to visit this iconic building that I’ve seen in movies since I was a child. It’s so much fun.

A lot of walking. Guide was excellent. Charlie was personable and told many interesting stories in a humorous way.

Was a fantastic experience going up the Empire State Building. We were so lucky with the weather in October. Very informative and staff very friendly Only issue was there were 5 of us on the ticket but this would not scan to let us through and it we had to wait about 10 minutes to one side for a senior member of staff to go and print off paper tickets for us to scan through. Which in this day and age seems ridiculous. If the scan ticket I down load on my phone say for 5 people it should work and not have to be printed out and us have to wait around .

Very well organised tour. We went for the express due to potential long queues, however didn’t really require them as was quiet on our arrival. We had a 1015 hrs Saturday slot booked. Fantastic views from the observation level, help with the excellent weather.

Great experience! We did just the 80th and 86th floor due to time and budget and felt like we maximized our experience! We did the 5:15pm on a Thursday evening and felt it was a great time to beat the sunset crowds. Amazing views and the outdoor viewing was spectacular!!
