This was the most funnest experience I ever had! I did it for my husband’s 25th birthday & he was having so much fun! I forgot the name of the person who was taking our pictures but he has a beard & he was very funny & he was making everyone feel very pumped up & excited to do this climb! Our instructor was the guy with the shaved beard (I forgot his name too😭) very fun as well! He was making us feel comfortable & he made the whole process of hanging of the building seem very calm and easy! Which helped us a lot! The group we were with were tourists from Europe & out of state, the instructor & photographer made all of us feel like a bunch of friends during & by the end of it! Another plus is that after The City Climb we were able to go to The Edge as well! So it seemed very much worth it! You get 2 experiences! If you’re a native New Yorker like my husband & I please do it once!! You will look at NYC in a different way! I highly recommend it!!

Great one of a kind experience. Don't let fear turn you away from this. My friend is scared of heights and this ended up being the highlight of the trip for you. You'll get some of the coolest pictures you'll ever have taken of you. The workers go above and beyond in ensuring safety at every turn and also try their best to make it fun for us. Great for thrill seekers, but everyone else as well. Edge itself is set in a fantastic location with views of both the midtown and downtown skylines.

My fiancé and I went to the climb for my birthday and it did not disappoint. Angel and Mel were extremely patient and understanding, which really made us feel comfortable during this excursion. I am so happy we went! Totally worth the money!!

Absolutely Amazing!!!! Worth every penny!!! Loved the whole experience specially the guide Devon was so great i felt like i could trust him to lean back because it was scarry at first but i had the best time. The only thing i didn’t like is that they only make one personal video of the lean and is not fair for some of us who were scare the video comes out bad. but i’ll never forget this experience. Deff recommend going on sunset look at this view👇🏻 also thank you to jose the guy in the front he spoke to me for like half hour taking all of my doubts ❤️🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

This experience was amazing! I went here to have some fun with my dad! It is VERY safe. They have a lot of safety protocols which makes this experience even more fun because of how safe you feel. Special thanks to Vanessa and Adrian! They were the stars of the show!!!!
