Ascend New York City's most iconic skyscraper with a private expert guide, bypassing all queues for exclusive access to the observatory decks. A bucket-list New York moment with unrivalled 360° views of Manhattan.
What to expect
Your private guide meets you at the entrance and escorts you past all general queues, straight to the observatory elevators. On the 86th floor open-air deck, the full sweep of Manhattan, the Hudson, and five states unfolds before you. The 102nd floor — the very pinnacle — offers an almost surreal closeness to the sky above New York. Your guide weaves in architectural history, Hollywood legends, and insider lore throughout.
Good to know
Book the All Access Private Tour well in advance — slots are extremely limited. The ESB is easily reached from Midtown piers by taxi or rideshare in under 15 minutes. Allow 2–2.5 hours total. Check your ship's all-aboard time and aim for a morning slot to avoid afternoon cloud cover.
