Top of the Rock has some of the most incredible views of the city. It is a must see if you are in NYC. Definitely better than the Empire State building IMO. more

Great views, no lines, no crowds...100% better than Empire State Building with beautiful views of Central Park. Don't forget the 3rd observation deck does not have glass so you can get some great photos...well worth the money and time! more

As you're getting oriented to NYC, it helps to take your map to the Top of the Rock (or other) and get a clear, unadulterated view of the city. Is it worth $20 per....yikes....no regrets for us, but I think that's a bit much for most families and disappointing to think they'd miss it.... more

Great all around view of NYC. Nice that you can see Central Park on one side, and downtown Manhattan on the other. Went with our 2 teens, and we all loved it! A definitely "must do" in NYC. 3 levels of observation decks, and an inner glass enclosed area with benches is available too. more

We did the Empire State also--but in the future would skip it... more

There was no waiting in line and we enjoyed the view from all sides without it being too crowded,... more

The view from Top of the Rock is like no other I have ever seen. My wife and I went on a cloudy day around 6:00 pm. To my amazement, there was absolutely no lines anywhere. We walked up to the ticket counter, went through security, and straight to the top we went; all in the matter of 10 minutes.... more
