The memories I seen from gossip girl was all real. I loved time square the park all the amazing excitements I see and went.

Long lines ahead

Sarah_C, Jan 2025

Lots of lines and doesn't seem to matter if you have a time booked you get there when you get there I enjoyed the experience itself but my husband didn't think was worth the cost and time to wait in lines for so long

Wonderful day

erika_r, Jan 2025

The day was perfect , we enjoyed all time that we be there and took a lot of pictures. It is not to many people so we can walked with out problem . Everybody was happy with the experience

This was the best...

KATHY_J, Jan 2025

This was the best experience I've ever had OMG I loved every last minute of it . Starting from the beginning all the way to the end it was all excitement. The best time to go is at night that's when you see it's true beauty. The night life is drop dead gorgeous.

Amazing interactive viewing platform of NYC, on a clear day able to see all the iconic sights, especially the Empire State Building

Corinna_F, Jan 2025

Great experience, just be prepared to line up at the start - we had a booking but it takes a while to get through all the security and get the shoes, once in, it was a lovely experience

Loved it

Rachel_G, Jan 2025

gerry_e, Jan 2025

some mirrors in one room / some helium balloons in another - yes amazing views but not sure about the rest

I really enjoyed the...

Haley_B, Jan 2025

I really enjoyed the experience. My favorite part was the room with the silver balloons. My family and I took lots of pictures. We most definitely will be coming back.

Weather was not good

Sylvia_B, Jan 2025

Weather was not good. Experience is overrated. Didn’t have as much fun as we would have if the weather was clear.

Too rushed

Consuelo_M, Jan 2025

I felt the 10:00 pm experience was too rushed. They kept pushing us to the next rooms. We didn’t feel like we could enjoy the room at our leisure.

Incredible views

Lisa_M, Jan 2025

Spectacular views and creative ways to enjoy them! There was not enough information given regarding the professional photos they took and I needed to ask someone but $25 digital package is a good deal, I thought.

Awesome

YoungDave_L, Jan 2025

Lovely and beautiful💕 great atmosphere to be in Amazing views great vibe Clean place 😍respectful staffs joyful evening ❄️

Nice experience

Irina_P, Jan 2025

The views are amazing, we went there night time and i think the view is more spectacular than daytime. Unfortunately very long queues at the entrance

A view from above

Ling_Z, Jan 2025

Fun experience. Breathtaking view. The balloon room is the BEST!! It does get a bit too loud with all the kids excited screaming, and also balloons popping (they do pop if they are hit hard, which the visitors are not supposed to do). Overall a really unique experience.

NYC visit 2025

Valerie_O, Jan 2025

Excellent visit and was treated so nicely. My friend uses a walking stick and they ushered us through the line so she would not have to stand in the que. And when leaving got the same assistance.
