What to expect

Experience an exclusive, 90-minute guided tour at the top of One Vanderbilt, Midtown Manhattan's tallest commercial skyscraper. With skip-the-line privileges at all key points including entrance, security, elevators and Levitation, your visit to this architectural masterpiece is elevated to a whole new level. The premium package also includes a complimentary digital photo package to capture your memorable visit.

The tour encompasses three levels of mind-bending multisensory experiences and beautiful art installations. A highlight is Levitation: experience the thrill of standing on transparent glass 325 metres above Madison Avenue, feeling the city streets pulsating beneath you. SUMMIT One Vanderbilt isn't just an “observation deck”, it's a fusion of art and technology that takes sightseeing to entirely new heights.

The tour is led by an expert guide who will delve into the best features of the building - from its awe-inspiring art and cutting-edge architecture to the unparalleled views of New York City. You'll enjoy spectacular 360-degree views of the city and beyond on all three floors, with close-up views of iconic landmarks such as the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building.
