We just finished a vacation tour in New York city. As a former New Yorker, now living in Spain. I was amazed how much New York has grown in just a few years. Sightseeing New York with a NYC Pass made life simple, enjoyable and most importantly affordable. We were able to go to many museums and other attractions all for one cost because the pass includes so many different things to see in New York. Best of all, I jumped on the subway to show my wife where I grew up in the Bronx near Yankee Stadium. I would say that was almost a highlight of my trip!
NY Skyride: Exprincing New York threw a natives eyes is one of the best ways to get to know this great city. The NY Pass allows natives and visitors alike to enjoy the city.

Looking for Group Travel Discounts? Try the NYC Pass…got to tons of stuff all for one price and it’s like (or better) than getting group prices! They have over 70 admissions to grate stuff like the WW2 aircraft carrier Intrepid. Man, that is one cool place.Was also to get admission to Empire State Building Observatory admission through the Pass.
NY Skyride: NY Pass is a great tool for travelers with out breaking the bank. Also besides entry to over 70 attractions the card has great discount offers on other fun things to do in the city.

I think New York Student Travel has gotten easier and easier. With the advent of so many apps starting from foursquare to gogobot.com and so many hostel booking engines, online subway and bus maps…this city has become fairly easy to navigate. Many discounts are available online it’slike the Group travel discounts that were once only available to groups. Even the NYC Pass can be ordered online and picked up within minutes of ordering. What an age we live in!
NY Skyride: Happy to see that access has gotten easier to all the great deals on things to in the city. They are always amazing deals for every trip budget to NYC.

With prices so expensive in NY, we found a way to see the city and still get to what’s equivalent to group travel discounts. By visitingnewyorkattractionpasses.com, we got a great overview of various top flite discount passes. While AAA and other organizations have good discounts, you need to belong to them to take advantage of discounted tours on new York..
This site explained the passes really well – which ones work on a time frame vs. which ones work on how many places you can see. We liked the amount of things you could do with the NYC Pass but in the end settled on the Explorer Pass which allowed us to do New York at a more leisurely pace.
NY Skyride: Thank you for the tips! NYC tourist attractions can be very valuable when using NYC Pass packages like the Explorer Pass and the New York Pass, the latter available right here on our website!

The Empire State Building in NYC has to be one of the most unique places to visit. Having toured other famous towers, once you’ve visited the Empire Building, you’ll see why it’s one of New York City’s highlights.
I went twice – once to experience it by day and once by night. Expensive? Yes. Worth it? ABSOLUTELY! I could have saved some money if I had the NYC Pass which would have allowed me free admission at least one of the two times. There is nothing more spectacular than getting a real live panorama of the city on a clear night. Also combining it with the Skyride in the building saved time and money by buying a combo ticket.
NY Skyride: We are thrilled to hear of your great experience of saving time and money by purchasing the Skyride + Empire State Building Observation Deck Combo ticket. If interested in visiting us a third time, you can save even more by purchasing your NYC Pass here at our website.

Like nostalgia? Then the New York Skyride is for you! This ‘state of the art’ ride is just that…except back in 1995.
HOWEVER…
It really is still a lot of fun providing visitors and native New Yorkers a ride akin to one of the NYC helicopter tours. It’s movin’ and shakin’ are fun and give an overall perspective to how New York was 15 years ago. I mean remember the old Yankee Stadium? Or the street hawkers with the watches in the pockets? How about a 1995 Chevy Caprice taxi! Still the Skyride is unique and for things to see in New York, especially with kids, I wouldn’t pass it up.
NY Skyride: Thank you for your feedback! When looking for fun things to do in New York, especially for families, our virtual tour simulator is a must experience.

I remember as a college kid coming to NYC on a New York Student Travel trip. We did a New York City bus tour (I think it was a company called Apple Tours, a double decker bus company now defunct). We also did a 2 hour cruise on the famous Circle Line boats on the Hudson River as well as one or two hours on their neighbor, the historic Intrepid Museum, a converted WWII aircraft carrier.
The trip was very memorable and I am going to repeat the trip with my girlfriend this summer. The only difference is I’m going to buy a NYC Pass. This is a super great deal where you can get over 100 things to do for one set price! I’ll tell you how great it is on another blog.
NY Skyride: New York student travel is always fun and easy with a New York City bus tour. I'm glad your bust trip and your visit to Circle Line Cruises and Intrepid Museum were so memorable for you. And yes! The NYC City Pass is a great way to see multiple NYC tourist attractions in one, two or seven days. Feel free to purchase your passes right here on our website and remember - start your day early. Our virtual tour simulator opens at 8AM and so does the Empire State Building observation deck. Have fun!

If you’re going to do a tour in new york city and looking for things to see in New York – I can’t think of a better way than to get the NYC Pass. Knowing how expensive the city is (I choked on the hotel breakfast bill), I thought this was the best deal in the world. With the New York Pass you can see many museums, do hop on hop off tours on double decker buses, take bike tours, walking tours and so much more. The book was so chock full of stuff that at the end of the day we usually had a burger or pizza instead of going for a fancy dinner. We were just too pooped to go party anymore.
I highly suggest the New York Pass as one of the best deals for sightseeing in New York!
NY Skyride: Thank you for your post Barbara. And what a great tip! The NYC pass is a great deal sold right here at skyride.com and offers free entry to nearly every New York City tourist attraction there is. So glad you enjoyed your trip.

We visit from Israel and we do tours NYC. Too much fun and not too much sleep because there is so many things to see in new york! With restarants and bars and so much to see who had time to sleep. We save for years to visit new york and it was worth it but so much money!
We visited museums, boats, seeport, statue of liberty, empire state bilding and the new york skiride. We hope we come again soon.
NY Skyride: There really are alot of awesome things to see in New York, and and while it's impossible to see every New York City tourist attraction in one visit, we're so glad you got to see so many of them including us! To save money on your next trip, come back to this website and book a two day NYC pass or a New York City bus tour and explore even more!

The best thing to do if you want fun things to do in New York is get a NYC pass where you can get into almost all tours in new york city for one price. Our first stop was the Empire State Building Observatory and we also did the Skyride which I thought was very unique and my kids really got a kick out of. After that we went to Times Square to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum. By the end of the day (we had a 1 day pass) we went to 7 attractions! My family and I really had a fun time in NYC.
