5.00I loved every minute up on the Edge and would do it again in a heartbeat. The adrenaline buzz is real. Theres a real thrill out on that platform, knowing you're so open to the outoor eminent, gives it a sense of danger. Don't worry though it's very safe. The friendly staff are around to answer any questions and make you feel welcome. Theres time to simply sit on the steps and take plenty of photos. We visited at around 3pm before the sunset crowds, no queuing and not over busy up top. Although dearer than the enclosed One World its well worth the expense and the highlight of my trip to New York and one I'll never forget.
Decent experience

5.00Probably one of the best views in NY. Great atmosphere at night. Although wasn't particularly busy when we went but still very handy to get the lift straight away and not que. Staff are very friendly. It wasn't explained how we claimed our drink that was included we had to ask for it and make sure you get it as the drinks are stupid prices!
Great and friendly staff....

5.00Visited March 2026 was a family of 3. Wow. This is one activity not to miss in NYC. It goes without saying, when you are 100 floors up? The views are going to be incredible. The only thing I would say is to check the weather forecast to try to secure a clear day. We did and had clear blue skies and views as far as possible. All the usual sights are there but I find it more interesting to look out over the Union City side as that’s the side one never sees. I look for areas of interest and could see the exact spot Blondie filmed the Union City Blue video (which is one of my all time faves). Likewise, the views up along Hudson are incredible (Capt Sully did an incredible job under immense pressure). Although the actual outside deck gives almost 360 degrees of view, make sure to go into the cafe area and view from the windows. You get an even better view of the “other side” of NYC. Would definitely do this again. Many thanks to the staff out on deck for taking photos of all of us.
Just do it if u can 😳😳

5.00We booked on a cloudy, rainy day but were given the option to cancel. We decided to go anyway and what a fun experience to be so high up in a rain cloud. There were no lines and it was so fun. We had another skyrise-view experience booked so the view was less important than the experience. Highly recommend.
Beautiful

5.00Beautiful views of NYC in all directions. Fun to step on a glass floor, or sit high on stairs to take in the city skyline, Statue or Liberty, and ocean views.
