5.00The hour cruise was very informational. The crew was friendly and helpful. It was hard to hear the guide from the side of the boat, sit in the front. Much city noise on the cruise; trains, helicopters
Top of the Rock Rocks!

5.00We arrived earlier than planned and staff were friendly and welcoming and let us in earlier. It had been raining and staff showed us a picture from the observation deck and asked if we wanted to still go up or reschedule for later. As it was only light drizzle, we went ahead with the visit and it was well worth it. The views were incredible and I upgraded to do the beam experience, which was worth it for the view and photo opportunity.
