This trip had been carefully planned and eagerly anticipated to fulfill my daughter Manuela’s dream of visiting New York. She had just turned 15, and with only a few days left before we set off, she started asking me about her favorite attractions—among them, visiting the Summit was the one she wanted most of all. It was our last tour. When she went up and saw New York from above, she hugged me and started crying, saying that dreams can come true, and that she would never forget that day. There were so many photos, hugs, and kisses. The memory is etched in my heart. Being able to book so easily just one day before our trip and having the experience we did was worth every penny of the planning we did a year in advance to make this trip happen.

Both Summit and Edge have pleasantly surprised me. Summit, in addition to offering spectacular views of the Big Apple, provides the incredibly fun experience of floating silver balls, as well as a glass-bottomed observation deck. At Edge, you feel like you’re in the clouds when you lean out over the windows, which are slightly angled toward the void. The sensation of standing on its glass floor is incredible.

It was truly an unforgettable experience, with a wonderful view of New York City, and everything was booked through Headout without any hassle or waiting. I highly recommend it—spend as much time as possible on the observation decks to enjoy the view ❤️

Well, I'm really happy because it was an amazing adventure. The staff were very helpful and everything was well organized. I loved the elevator—it's so fast—and once you're up there, the night view is just wow—a magnificent sight.

Take NYC to new heights with this combo. While SUMMIT provides a stationary yet immersive experience with its art installations and architectural features, the helicopter tour offers a dynamic journey, capturing the city's expanse in motion.

Explore three futuristic floors at SUMMIT, including Air’s mirror illusions, Levitation’s glass ledges, and the soaring Ascent elevator.

Soar above Manhattan on a 15-min helicopter ride with live commentary by the pilot and sky-high views of popular NYC landmarks like the Statue of Liberty, Central Park & the Empire State Building.

Both experiences are an absolute dream for photos. SUMMIT’s mirrored rooms and skyboxes make for surreal, artsy shots, while the helicopter ride gives you unbeatable aerial views of NYC from above.
