Review of the $25 9/11 Memorial Museum ticket in New York, with practical advice on exhibits, timing, emotional impact, and value.
“This was a really poignant experience, very thought provoking and sad. We felt the power of the tragedy that this museum commemorates, but the celebration of the people who lost their lives and carrying on their memories. I love that the money goes towards the charity and would recommend this museum to anyone visiting.”
Review the Empire State Building Observatory, with 86th and optional 102nd-floor views, museum galleries, practical tips, and ticket advice.
“It was a smooth and easy experience from start to finish. The whole experience was interesting and very informative inside the building with the history behind the building. The views from the 86th floor were amazing and we had the bonus of seeing the sunset this made my trip to NYC complete. A definite must do in NYC”
Review of Empire State Building tickets, with 86th-floor views, 102nd-floor upgrade, museum galleries, timing tips, and honest value advice.
“It's 20 years since I last visited the Empire State Building (as a 30 year old working in New York) now I'm 52 and visited with my teenage sons and partner. It didn't disappoint. Staff were great, helpful and considerate, and the experience is much more immersive: animations showing the build in 1931, King Kong peering through the windows, spy holes looking down on New Yorkers back in the 30's – it really was great, a classic, a must see!”

See Chicago’s skyline from the river, hear lively architecture stories, and visit multiple branches on this practical one-hour cruise.
“When booked they said there was a below deck to stay warm from the extreme cold in Chicago. Only flaps cover window below. It was freezing from the temperature and wind. They sold merch to warm peeps. For example flimsy blanket and gloves. Which looked like they were from the dollar store. The tour guide spoke so fast we lost interest after 12-15 minutes because we couldn’t understand him. We spent first 20 minutes asking each other what he said. Sounded like reading from a script. No fun facts no humor, no nuggets we could tell people about. Finally we gave up and turned on football game from our device.…”
Spend a full day at New York’s American Museum of Natural History, with dinosaurs, the Gilder Center, space shows, and family-friendly exhibits.
“Great experience. We spent few hours and didn’t see everything. Great for a rainy or cold day. We visited NYE week and it was very crowded. It would be nice if they had a max number of ticket sales to prevent overcrowding. And maybe kids area would also be nice.”
