    Statue of Liberty trip did not disappoint, arrived early at the battery park , signs everywhere so that was helpful. Ferry was quick and easy. Weather was cold but is February in NY. We still had a beautiful clear day to see everything. Empire State Building was amazing as well, we went to 86th floor and we were able to go outside. Cold but worth it. Great experience overall.

    The buses were plentiful & a great relief at the end of a long day. We used the service several times and finished our adventure with a sunset trip along the Hudson River back to 50th street. The pre book at Empire State Building was stress free & we got right in with little wait. Will definitely suggest this to everyone I know ... We Love NYC!!

    Excellent reception, attention, ambience. Highly recommended to go up at night and enjoy. Super friendly guard at the check-in point. Facilities in perfect condition despite the age of the building. Unfortunately the fences limit visibility, but it is a must-see. And we were snowed in, which was amazing to see.
