We are a newlywed couple who traveled to New York from South Korea. We stayed in New York for three days before traveling to Cancun. The night view of the Empire State Building was the best experience I can't forget. New York is a place I really want to come again.

Loved the whole experience. Liked the experience before even going up the elevator. Nice new attractions. Very nice touch. The play on the old architecture is wonderful. Even the suits of the staff was great.

We originally booked tickets for Sun evening but on arriving the weather was bad and told no view so we were easily able to change to another time.We changed to Tue 10am ,the opening slot.When we arrived at 9.50am there was already a huge queue down the street.We weren't sure whether to join it or go to the front...several other groups had the same confusion.We were allowed to go straight in as had early tickets but only because we asked..it's not very clear.Once inside there was already another large queue for security!We were abit limited for time due to all the queuing so rushed through the museum part which did look really interesting about how the building was constructed.Once at the top the view is awesome ..the lift is so fast up the 87 floors!It's all very organized,some of the staff are abit abrupt but they are trying to keep everyone moving along I guess.Large gift shop on the way out .
