This is a must to do in NYC as the view is just incredible. Don't go up the Empire State Building....why go up a building that you want in a picture and also a building where you can't see Central Park. The Top of the Rock has it all. You get unspoilt views of the whole of Manhattan Island and... more

Nice view of the city. We went towards sunset on a Sunday night and there was no line. Very nice view of the city. We waited until the sun went down and the lights started coming on. That was pretty cool. I think it offered a much better view than the Empire State Building. more

Went to TOTR at 6:30 on a Tuesday evening. Virtually no lines. Were at the top in minutes. Staff was friendly and welcoming, even if those taking souvenier photos to sell downstairs were a little agressive. Views were outstanding! Gorgeous! We were up there for 2 hours and never felt crowded or rushed. more

It is difficult to believe, but all the raving reviews here are true. We had no wait whatsoever to go to the top (10 AM on a Tuesday) and the view was incredible. Well worth your time. more

Not only is the view from here amazing, but the line was virtually non-exsistent. You get a fantastic view of Central Park and on the other side, you can use binoculars to see all the people crowded on top of the Empire State building - this sight alone was worth it! I was there in Nov 2007 and will be... more

Nothing but good things to say. But decide for yourself and just do it. No lines, no crowds, great views, cheaper than ESB. OH yeah, show your AAA card for a discount. There is a reason this is rated #1 on tripadvisor. Forget The ESB, there is line after line after line. All you do is wait. Photos are from... more

When booking online, you have to choose a date and a time of arrival. We chose the 7.15- 7.30 PM slot in order to capture the daylight, sunset and night time views. We got there around 6:45 and although we had online tickets, the expectation was that we would still have to queue up for security and lifts and would... more

We viewed the city at 6pm on Memorial Day. This is something you must see!!! Don't waste $30 on the photograpy staff photos. Bring your own camera and get a picture that is just as good...for free! more

Possbly the best view other than a helicopter in New York. Checkout the daylight times before you go and like us go when the sun sets and get the daylight experience along with the bright lights of Manhattan in one go. Book online and no need to queue for tickets. Fabulous !! more
