Then tour was a nice and informative...not too long, but it's best to go on the week days as it's a ghost town on the weekends - skeleton crew, and all live recordings are done in the NY/LA locations and definitely no Wolf Blitzer within 50 miles. The building I can say is a beautiful and picture worthy ...you will... More

This is worth the money, one of my best moments ever. The tour kicked off with Becky our guide and we had the history of CNN and watching live broadcasts, control room then met Robin Meade who is the host of HLN morning express. Not only did we see the programme being broadcast live, we met Robin who was lovely.... More

Great fun and really interactive? Loved this place and the tour, it was nice to see how the news is 'made' from inside the studios. The interaction between tour, studio and visitor is grest and really good if you are some what of a news junkie!! Afterwards it is definatley worth while a bite to eat in the lobby area... More

15.00 Dollars to see nothing on Sunday, and the employees so rude with everybody? Come on man. CNN should have a warning when the offices are empty and the news were recorded 2 days ago as happened on Sunday 20, 2012. I understand the security is priority but, do not get confuse with "employes abuse" of the all the people... More

We liked this tour around the CNN studio to see how they work. The tour guides where very cheerful and friendly, joking with the group. Not to long a line. There are some shops and restaurants in the building. More

This is a very fun tour, because you get to look at different studios and anchors of CNN. You get to take a tour with a lot of people, and you should have fun. More

This is a behind the scenes tour of a TV studio. You get to see how the TV anchors, producers, and even weather reporters do their job. There is also a really large escalator. I would say this is something fun to do, but it's a bit overpriced if you didn't buy something like the CitiPass. Just ok, not great! More

My husband and I are frequent travelers. We do tours in all cities we visit, and we have to say that the CNN tour guide BECKY its the worse we have ever seen. She is rude, gets upset if little kids are making sounds or if people are wispering, and basically tells you to get out is your small children... More
