"The combination with the Empire State Building is a great value. Plus, the line at the Empire State Building was very long when we were there. The Skyride combo allowed us to skip most of the Empire State Building line. I would certainly recommend this attraction just for that. But, it was also nice to see a 'high-lite' of NYC."

Kids loved it!

"We chose to do the NY Skyride, even though reviews on here aren't the greatest. We were already at the Empire State Bldg, so figured we'd give it a try. It was a lot of fun! Our kids (8 & 5) loved it! If you are familiar with Disney, it's a cross between Soarin' and Star Tours, with NY as the scene. I can see how some adults would be annoyed, having paid a lot of $$ for it (it was on our NY Pass, which we'd already paid for), but for us, it was great. Kids enjoyed it much more than the 86th floor of the ESB, that's for sure. :)"
