I got tickets to enter the Empire State Building starting at 9:15 AM. Got up early and walked to the entrance at about 8:55. There we were told the building didn’t open until 10:00. When I asked why Viator sold tickets that were not for a correct time, I was told it was because they were from a 3rd party operator. So we stood for an hour on the sidewalk. I have trusted Viator in the past but now will be more careful that I get what I expected.

I loved being on top of the world! It was great to see NYC from a bird’s eye view. Walking around each side and seeing the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn bridge… Amazing

Great cheat. Our tickets included access to the 86th floor, but one mafioso wanted 40$ extra. So he only let us go to the 80th floor which is behind windows and filled with crap. Stronzo!

If it’s been some time since your last visit, give this icon another date! The Empire State Building has had a glow-up that makes the experience better and more comfortable for guests of all ages, including entertainment while in line for the views. I was pleasantly impressed and surprised.

The total price for the 2 of us was 190.54 ( 2 tickets @85 each, subtotal 170.00) convenience fees 5.44 plus tax 15.54) I booked directly from the website. The tickets were for the 86th and 102nd. The weather was cloudy and rainy so there was no visibility. The entrance is not clearly marked, the exit is on one end of the street with various companies occupying real estate ( I'm sure the doormen get tired of answering the question, "Excuse me, but where is the entrance?" There are distinctions between the grey and the red rope lines but there are not signs to indicate what each queue is for. While we were trying to find our way we were stopped to have our photo taken. At the end of the visit there was a big sell to pay for the photos. Discounted price at 35.00! We thought the pictures were okay, we couldn't see them that well from the screen, they weren't -turned out to be a mistake. We shouldn't have bought them in haste. Waste of money.
