Honestly, it was a very simple visit without much interaction. The welcome speech was great, and the view of New York's past in the elevators was also great, but honestly, nothing out of the ordinary. Obviously, the observatory is beautiful, and the views are great. We would have liked more interaction with the views of New York's past, more information, something more entertaining. We found it a bit too simple for the cost.

Edge is simply a must-see!!! Stunning views of the entire city, an absolutely incredible experience—I managed to take so many great photos. They closed off part of the outdoor deck, but that didn’t stop me from taking excellent photos. Vessel is also great for taking photos from high up with a view. And it’s quite different!

It was amazing up there. Especially if you get there before sunset, you get to experience the golden hour, and then, once it gets dark, the whole sea of lights. We also had a drink up there at the bar. That made the whole experience even better. Even the ride up in the elevator was an adventure. Going 100 floors super fast without a single pause was awesome.
