  • The ranking of tours, activities, and experiences available on Tripadvisor is determined by several factors including the revenue generated by Tripadvisor from these bookings, the frequency of user clicks, and the volume and quality of customer reviews. Occasionally, newly listed offerings may be prioritized and appear higher in the list. The specific placement of these new listings may vary.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Well worth it! I accidentally booked the flight from New Jersey! so needed to catch a train 17$, & too be honest I think we got a good deal because you need to get over to New York City therefore we thought made for a better trip, all the young staff were really helpful & pilot was very informative. The shuttle bus took us back to station & a lovely lady helped us get a ticket.

    Niagara Falls is a source of hydroelectric power and has its own beauty. Our family is having fun around the park by walking, and the hard rock cafe menus are delicious. The guide will follow and show around the waterfalls, but u can take ur own time by taking cool pictures. It is cool and chill that i can also watch waterfalls from NYC , and there is little town for breakfast stop before go to waterfalls.

    Very well organized. Courteous staff. Just don’t accept the 2 bogus locker charge that they force down on you when you arrive.

    Like a piece of Disneyworld in NYC, this fun attraction left us wanting to go back for more. It’s just the right amount of information in the very interesting set of museums - like a little historical buffet!- and the ride at the end reminded us of the “Soarin’” ride at Disneyworld, but without the 3 hour wait. It’s the right length, the right cost and great for kids and adults. Great way to add to your NYC experience!

    Michael was an incredible tour guide - committing to doing a solo tour just for me on a very cold January day. He’s a born storyteller and opened my eyes to the park in a way that I could never have truly appreciated its beauty without understanding the history behind it. He was also an incredible photographer.

    Can’t recommend Michael highly enough -do this if you are in New York!

    Scooter is a great way to see the park. You can cover so much more ground than on foot. Our tour included both bikes & scooters, so take your pick. Tour guide was great. We saw lots of notable highlights. Very enjoyable!

    This was our second time doing the Climb. Was truly a great experience. Was a lot quicker than when we did it in 2022 (just after Covid restrictions had lifted). The guide - I think she was called Chelsea - was really good and the experience was a great one!
    The only negative point is what has already been mentioned by others and that’s the quality of the photos isn’t great

    Only one attraction disappointed us, that of the private photographer for a photo shoot on a New York rooftop. We followed the steps for booking (email at least 24 hours in advance) but never received a response (not even a negative one). We were completely ignored even after 2 reminders. It was an experience we were really looking forward to. Too bad.

    I did this experience in January, in minus 5 degrees and in the snow. Central Park, in the snow, is magical. This experience was freezing cold but amazing and perfect. However, as a solo traveler, I paid the same price for one person as the price would be for 4 people. However, aside from that, it is, simply put a must-see through Central Park

    Dan was amazing and full of information. He grew up in the area so he's got a wealth of detailed knowledge that others likely wouldn't have. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Dan. He went the extra mile to fill us in on lots of "inside baseball" and was a lot of fun to spend time with. Couldn't recommend this tour more! Thank you, Dan!
