Full description

The Empire State Building is an American cultural icon, and one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. Join this exclusive tour to enjoy the spectacular views from the Empire State’s viewing decks with skip-the-line or express pass tickets for the fastest and most convenient experience. Fall in love with the best view of the Manhattan skyline.

The 2-hour tour includes skip-the-line tickets to the main deck at the 86h-floor of the Empire State. This means that you can skip the lines to the ticket office and head straight for the security and elevators. The main deck contains both an open-air outdoor viewing area and an enclosed viewing gallery, which allows you to enjoy great views regardless of the weather. Your Private Guide will accompany you to the deck and share interesting facts about the building’s fascinating history, architecture and the view. See the most iconic sights of New York City, including the Brooklyn Bridge, Central Park, Statue of Liberty and many more. This is a great way to see all of your favorite landmarks at once.

Choose the 3,5-hour option to visit the Empire State’s main deck and take advantage of skip-the-line tickets and private transfers from your New York accommodation. To give you the most convenient experience, we will arrange a pickup and drop-off service in a clean, air-conditioned vehicle. NYC’s public transportation system is extremely complicated for outsiders and it’s usually difficult to hail a taxi during rush hour, so this option can save you a lot of time getting to the meeting point.

Join the 2,5-hour tour to take your New York City experience even higher with a visit to the main deck and the top deck of the Empire State Building (no transfers). The top deck is an enclosed gallery located on the 102nd floor of the ESB, offering a bird’s eye view of the whole city. Take advantage of skip-the-line tickets and enjoy exploring the landscape from the top floor of the 7th tallest building in New York City.

The 4-hour tour includes skip-the-line tickets to the Empire State’s 86th and 102nd-floor viewing decks and a walking tour of Fifth Avenue and the Rockefeller Centre. Your Private Guide will show you the landmark skyscrapers, New York Public Library, St Patrick’s Cathedral and other sights along one of the most expensive streets in the world. The tour will end at the Rockefeller Center, where your guide will introduce you to the greatest project for architecture, art and gardens in the Great Depression years.

Opt for the 3-hour option to take advantage of Express Pass to the main and top decks of the Empire State Buildings. This type of ticket allows you to skip all lines to the ticket office, fast-track the security line and use a separate elevator for the fastest and most convenient experience. After admiring the views from the 86th and 102nd-floor, you will also have time for a short guided tour of Fifth Avenue and Rockefeller Center.
