Skip the upgrade unless you feel the need to go past deck 86.

We paid quite a bit for the upgraded ticket. It was worth it to be able to go to deck 102, but the crowds were still very dense. The idea that it was a fast track was not very well executed. It allowed us to bypass maybe one line. So, overall, if you're not set on going past deck 86, I would skip the upgrade. As far as the experience goes, I think everyone should go to the ESB at least once since you get quite a viewpoint of the city.

I finally visited the...

I finally visited the Empire State Building and it honestly lived up to the hype. The views from the top are amazing, and seeing the city stretch out in every direction never gets old. Going near sunset was a great call because the colors were incredible. The staff were friendly and organized, so the lines moved faster than expected. The building itself feels classic and very New York, which adds to the experience. Yes, it’s touristy and a bit pricey, but it’s totally worth it at least once. I’d happily recommend it to friends and I would definitely visit again.

Been living in NYC but never went to the observatory. It is a very nice experience for someone visiting NYC or even living here. Views from the top are really nice and you can take a lot of pictures. On the way to the observatory, there are information about Hollywood movies shot in the building. The King Kong experience they’ve created is icing on the cake. One can take amazing videos or pictures there. The facilities do not rush you through the experience. Overall 5/5.
