The World’s Most Famous Arena Did Not Disappoint - There were only three of us on this day’s final tour so our guide, Mark, was able to take his time, engage in plenty of dialogue, and show us the sites. The band Disturbed was conducting its sound check so the arena was not set up for either a Rangers or Knicks game but we still had the opportunity to check out all the usual spaces and maybe even a couple extra. The views from the bridge are not to be missed! We even got to see something out of the ordinary, visiting hockey gear being housed in the Rangers’ locker room (due to the concert).

Fantastic place to visit ! - I absolutely love this place so much. It is a great tour around an hour and you get to see all around places you wouldn't be able to access. I have done this tour 2 times now first time was set up for the basketball and the other time was ice hockey. Amazing to see both, i just wish we could see the locker rooms but both times they were closed. I also wish you was able to take video's in here but you get great pics anyway. I highly recommend, it's a must when you visit NYC 10/10 experience for sure !

MEMORIES MADE AT MSG - It was an informative tour from our guide Justin. Very knowledgeable and definitely not a Chicago Bull fan, that being said it was a nice tour.

Be careful. Check the fixture list - Watch out with this. If there is a match on the same day you want a tour, tours start at 12:00 on a 1st come 1st served basis. The booking suggests from 10:30. We were caught out with this as we could not attend after 12:30. We were offered a refund but they said we were outside of the 24hour cancellation period..still waiting for a refund and currently well out of pocket

Viator didn't have clue how this tour is conducted. - When I booked this tour several months prior to the date I scheduled it for, I had trouble accessing the online registration. I called customer service and spoke to an agent who told me I could book the time between 10:00am-noon. I choose an 11:00am tour time. Got up early the day of the tour and caught a train to the city. Walked to MSG and got there approximately 10:40am only to be told tours at MSG do not start until noon. Went across the street to Dunkin because we were told we couldn't wait in the lobby of MSG. I called Viator and spoke to a very condescending man who offered no real explanation other than to tell me it was not up to Viator to set the time of the tour if MSG has their own policies. Returned 11:45am and were told we would have to wait until 12:30pm for a tour. I have used Viator tours numerous times in the past and have never had a bad experience communicating with them. Will think long and hard about using them again.
