Our guide had a thick accent and soft voice. It was really difficult to hear him. Also our guide started talking before we all got to the item he was talking about. He walked really fast! I have older parents and it was hard for them to keep up with him. Overall, I really do not think our guide should be a guide.

Excellent displays Wide-ranging variety of artists and art forms The crowd was moderate - enough people to give off a vibe of excitement, but not so many that it was hard moving around, reading captions/explanations, and getting some up-close views of the work Easy access to stairs and elevators Exciting to see in-person some works we have only encountered in books or via video

i was expecting a typical art gallery experience but was very impressed with the 60 minute multi-screen musical experience and the sports floor especially. unfortunately my booking experiences wasn't so wonderful, I booked online, thought i was booking for San Francisco but purchased a ticket for NYC, which I was told is non-refundable. I'd like to see more flexibility for this esp. in consideration of simple errors.

I visited the museum on my own using the directions provided via the QR code on the Moma website. Everything was very clear. The staff was very kind in showing me what was the best route to take and where to start so that I could visit all the areas. At the 'entrance I didn't find the line of people I went right in and downloaded the app. Everything was perfect

We went to see Van Gogh's Starry Moonlit Night. I was very disappointed that I could not see the Olive Tree. Monet's great works, Chagall, Picasso, Dali, etc. were wonderful. I wish I could have spent more time there because I had limited time. (So far, it is OK to put it on the website) I think it would have been useful to have a guide to the rooms exhibited by each artist [e.g., Monet (505.508)] on the Internet. It was my first time and I was in a hurry because I could not display the QR code properly. I am 64 years old. I would have appreciated it if you could have summarized the steps in order of number after getting the ticket on the Internet for the elderly people overseas. I should have used more information. I do not want it to be included in the review.

The concept of getting on and off at various points is great; but one bus dropped us off a block before the regular stop, and there were no directions to the sights listed - for example, Rockerfeller Center and Grand Central Station were a few blocks from the drop off point, and there was no one to direct us. The audio gave very little direction or informaton; too much of it was just music, and the narrators were silly. I would not recommend Big Bus for New York.

Jul 2024Verified booking
When I purchased the tickets for the red and blue line, I did not expect that going to both venues were not possible. They should recommend doing one or the other, not two. I was not able to see it all. Then the bus conductor was very disrespectful, he was using foul language and then wasted about 15 minutes, since he insisted on doing this paperwork at that very moment and not utilizing the time to drive to the various locations. With that being said, the time crunch set in. I have to experienced hop on at many places but this was the worst.

We originally booked tickets for Sun evening but on arriving the weather was bad and told no view so we were easily able to change to another time.We changed to Tue 10am ,the opening slot.When we arrived at 9.50am there was already a huge queue down the street.We weren't sure whether to join it or go to the front...several other groups had the same confusion.We were allowed to go straight in as had early tickets but only because we asked..it's not very clear.Once inside there was already another large queue for security!We were abit limited for time due to all the queuing so rushed through the museum part which did look really interesting about how the building was constructed.Once at the top the view is awesome ..the lift is so fast up the 87 floors!It's all very organized,some of the staff are abit abrupt but they are trying to keep everyone moving along I guess.Large gift shop on the way out .

Ticketing experience was easy, museum was amazing - I hadn't expected the vast range of artists and art that was exhibited there (particularly from the likes of Van Gogh and Monet).

Loved all of it. Exceptional tour. The only thing that could be improved is the information on where to queue when first arriving. The man on the door didn't make it clear, then got cross when folks where getting it wrong. But it didn't spoil our tour of the building. And it's def best done at night. The view was incredible.

Excellent displays Wide-ranging variety of artists and art forms The crowd was moderate - enough people to give off a vibe of excitement, but not so many that it was hard moving around, reading captions/explanations, and getting some up-close views of the work Easy access to stairs and elevators Exciting to see in-person some works we have only encountered in books or via video

We went to see Van Gogh's Starry Moonlit Night. I was very disappointed that I could not see the Olive Tree. Monet's great works, Chagall, Picasso, Dali, etc. were wonderful. I wish I could have spent more time there because I had limited time. (So far, it is OK to put it on the website) I think it would have been useful to have a guide to the rooms exhibited by each artist [e.g., Monet (505.508)] on the Internet. It was my first time and I was in a hurry because I could not display the QR code properly. I am 64 years old. I would have appreciated it if you could have summarized the steps in order of number after getting the ticket on the Internet for the elderly people overseas. I should have used more information. I do not want it to be included in the review.

I am a former Metropolitan Police Officer and was deployed as a Family Liaison Officer to the american husband of his British wife who perished in the incident. To be able to see some of the remnants of the towers and to find the wife's name at the memorial was very emotional and humbling. I had wanted to visit the site for many years ad I am so glad I have now finally done so.

A wonderful , tasteful memorial to all the 9/11 victims and a great privilege to be there. Staff throughout were friendly and helpful and there was a suitably respectful atmosphere. The museum does justice to the event and all the victims and the final video on the humanity of the day , all the boats turning up to evacuate hundreds of thousands of Manhattan residents ( which we were unaware of) left a big lump in my throat and xthe shedding of a tear or two. Thank you.

Excellent displays Wide-ranging variety of artists and art forms The crowd was moderate - enough people to give off a vibe of excitement, but not so many that it was hard moving around, reading captions/explanations, and getting some up-close views of the work Easy access to stairs and elevators Exciting to see in-person some works we have only encountered in books or via video

Beautiful exhibition, everything very neat, staff welcoming and never intrusive, even the management of the rooms was exceptional. Highly recommended, as times are better in the morning, you have more time to admire all the art operetta present.

i was expecting a typical art gallery experience but was very impressed with the 60 minute multi-screen musical experience and the sports floor especially. unfortunately my booking experiences wasn't so wonderful, I booked online, thought i was booking for San Francisco but purchased a ticket for NYC, which I was told is non-refundable. I'd like to see more flexibility for this esp. in consideration of simple errors.

I visited the museum on my own using the directions provided via the QR code on the Moma website. Everything was very clear. The staff was very kind in showing me what was the best route to take and where to start so that I could visit all the areas. At the 'entrance I didn't find the line of people I went right in and downloaded the app. Everything was perfect

It's a great way to cover the world famous sights and monuments of NYC in this efficient manner. But something unfortunate happened. It started raining. so all the passengers from the upper deck rushed to the covered deck below. The driver forcefully shooed all the non seated passengers off the bus in the middle of nowhere, under pouring rain. I understand that this is a safety guideline but there ought to be a more considerate way of doing things. I felt so sorry for those who were affected.

Was too long sitting in traffic. Too much filler music on guided tour. How about educating us on all the gorgeous architecture, the beautiful churches? There was plenty more to talk about. And you really dont see many of the sights from the bus. A bit misleading. 2 of our headsets were static. Not worth the money.

Truly enjoyed the city tour. The 9/11 Memorial was something we will remember for a very long time. Tour touched a lot of different locations. I felt the commentary could have been better. It worked but more info and history would be good...a little humor too.

Easy on and off at lots of stops. Friendly helpful staff at each stop, and free!! I would've like to know that the last stop did not take us to the point where we boarded at 1st stop. They said we had to get off and wait 30 minutes for a new bus.

Visiting One World Observatory was an absolutely unforgettable experience! From the moment we stepped into the sleek and modern lobby, we knew we were in for something special. The elevator ride alone is incredible, as you watch the transformation of New York City’s skyline over the centuries in a matter of seconds. Once we reached the top, the 360-degree views were breathtaking — you can see the entire city, including iconic landmarks like the Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, and Brooklyn Bridge. The interactive displays and digital guides really added to the experience, giving us detailed insights into the buildings and neighborhoods we were looking at. There’s also a sense of awe knowing you're at the top of the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere, which is a remarkable feat in itself. The staff was friendly and efficient, and though it was busy, the observatory is spacious enough that it never felt crowded. We also enjoyed a snack at the café while soaking in the views, which made for a perfect break before heading back down. If you're in New York, this is an absolute must-do. It's not just about the views — it's about experiencing the heart and soul of the city from above. Highly recommend!
