My favorite NYC spot - We visited Rockefeller Center multiple times during our vacation week. So much to see & do. Amazing pictures. Must go to Top of the Rock at night for the best view of NYC.

Great view from top of rock, centre also great especially on rainy day - Incredible views of city went in day next time will got at night. It was raining but views were still spectacular and could see everything. As it was raining on day we went was actually quiet. Enjoyed walking around the centre as well and radio city ate food at restaurant where my wife had hot dog her choice but said it was best hot dog she had ever had. Definetly do again and if hadn’t been raining would have done the beam and observation tower as well as beam iconic and reason we chose rockerfellar top of the rock.

Top of the rock - Super staff. No queues. Relaxed and easy experience. Visited at 8am watch is possibly why no queues. Able to spend as much time as we liked taking photos

Amazing! - What an amazing experience. Our guide was great, she told us so much we’d never have known just wandering around ourselves. As it was a beautiful Saturday evening and close to sunset it was very busy, but we dodged the large queues and really enjoyed our time up there. I’d strongly recommend the VIP experience for anyone wanting something a little bit special.

VIP was Worth It - The VIP was worth it. The lounge was nice. They offered you water or lemonade. I loved not having to wait in line. I was a little confused because they said private tour, but it was with other people (only 6). I would have worded it small group. It was nice they let us reschedule since there were whiteout conditions the day we were scheduled. The glass of champagne was more like a sample. The beam and skylift were super cool. The photo pass is included so you don’t have to wait in line unless you want your photos printed. They give you 20% off the gift shop and a card to show to skip the line for the elevator. I loved the views.

Amazing Views - Great views and experience. The only reason i docked a point was that the queues for the beam experience were massive - no problem we waited for about hour and then when it was our turn he said we would have to go with someone else ! not ideal having someone random on your photo. Anyway we didn’t and the experience was great.

private Rockefeller experience - we booked due to the VIP tickets. you enter via a different and more private lounge. We had a 3rd person on our tour. you can sit for a bit and have a drink before you get a private tour all over the main Rockefeller buildings. You learn about the history and the small secrets about the buildings. You also get a great view from a private terrace they rent out for weddings. you then get a fast track up to the top floor and then the Beam experience. it is quick and you get to do pictures. they then go to the Skylift and it is fully private (except for the lift operator). the Beam and Skylift are both private and you do not have to wait. The weather was bad that day we were still able to do both. something you must pay attention to as there is no refunds. overall the tour was pretty good. Good for photos and a private experience. Would recommend to anyone who wants a good memorable experience in New York.

I want the moon. - Haven’t even got in there yet but waited 45 minutes to watch a short film. No queuing system, just rounded up like cattle and its whoever pushes into the front gets in. If I can’t basically touch the moon when I get to the top then there will be hell to pay.
