A private experience worth every penny. We booked the first sunrise of the 2023 season and it didn’t disappoint. Beside the wonderful experience of viewing the sunrise over the city from the observation deck we got to enjoy the relative privacy of being one of only 100 in the building at this time. The staff were incredible and enthusiastic to share their knowledge and experience within the building. The Starbucks coffee and pastry is a nice touch that early in the morning. The almost overlooked, but thoroughly enjoyed portion of the experience was being able to walk through the museum with relative privacy. Overall, I highly recommend this option between May and October if you’re traveling to NYC.

I had a 6 hour stopover at NYC, coming from Nashville heading towards Singapore. Getting the express pass is a good idea as one will skip the long queues. The view is spectacular and the staff on duty were very helpful - plus had a great sense of humour. The experience will definitely be long remembered! As such, the site visit plus a sneak peek at Times Square was just right for me. Awesomeness!
