Excellent experience - We ordered the premium pass. There was no waiting in line it was very easy to navigate around. We had a person with us that had limited mobility and he was able to easily get around and enjoy. One of the biggest highlights of our trip to NYC

What a beautiful way to... - What a beautiful way to see the city! The fast pass was the way to go and the $15 coupon made it the same price as the regular ticket.

Best view of NY. - Oh, the One World Trade Center is really impressive! The view from there is spectacular, especially because you can see the whole city, New York Bay and even the Statue of Liberty in the distance. The One World Observatory at the top is a unique experience, with an amazing 360-degree panorama and a dive into the history of the city. Taking my children to this experience will be wonderful! Besides the view, the 9/11 Memorial is also very impactful and educational.

Worth seeing it. - Awesome views of the city. Went early with our 10/12 year old boys. It’s worth Combining it with the 9/11 memorial visit.

Would visit again - Excellent visit and experience. Really slick operation with airport style security , friendly staff and of course amazing views! Definitely worth a visit. We didn’t need to bother with skip the queue ticket tho as there wasn’t any queues! Also don’t forget to trade in your $ in the shop or cafe! We forgot to do this 🙈

Great attraction, just skip the cafe / all inclusive ticket and save yourself the money, - The elevator experience and view was absolutely amazing. It never felt busy and we were able to spend as long as we wished admiring the view. All of the staff were friendly and professional. We paid for the all inclusive ticket and it was a waste of money. We were able to skip the queue, except there was no queue (despite visiting during peak times). We also got $15 credit to use in the shop / cafe but The tuna sandwiches we bought were inedible, literally the worst sandwich we’ve ever eaten and that it saying a lot!

The bar and restaurant is badly organized. Observatory is great. - The observatory is great, the views are great as well, the restaurant and bar is really bad, the people is extremely unfriendly, and there’s not enough seating available, we purchased $15 drink and eat voucher. It was not possible to get a seating. Even at the bar, there was not enough space.

The app did not work. - The app does not always work to present tickets. I was forced to purchase tickets because the tickets would not load in the app.
