Ball drop! - The RiseNY experience was nice; I especially enjoyed the ride of all the bureaus in NY! It really put things into perspective of an entire overview of NY. Everlasting memories!

Worth it!! - OK, yes it is a lot like the ride down in Disney that we all know but it has a local flare for New York City that makes it special. The museum is very informative and quite good. Of course, the ride is exceptional. Everyone that works there is pleasant and helpful And they don’t rush you at all. A worthwhile experience.

A must to see when visiting New York - Omg this is a hidden gem. Loved RISE. It’s like seeing New York in 30 mins. A must to see. It’s like the rise soaring at Disney but better yet. Thank you Viator for letting me know and helping me get my tickets. I would do it again and again. Thank you Viator and New York

Rise Ny - My family and I were the last people on the ride. It was very much like Soarin in Epcot which we love. I enjoyed the entire experience. It was extremely informative and fun. The staff was helpful, courteous and knowledgeable. We will go back again.

Definitely worth a visit whilst in NYC - It was interesting and we especially enjoyed the finale. It’s in a good location and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. We just had a few hours to fill in and this perfectly fitted the bill.

A little campy and first but pretty cool in the middle! - The lead up to the main event was better than the ride itself. I’ve seen this type of attraction in other cities and feel like this fell a little short. We enjoyed checking out the memorabilia leading up to the ride, lots of great stuff to see. Normally I’d post pics but idk, in this case, I feel like it would ruin the experience for someone else.

Fun but be aware - Fun museum and awesome ride. Only issue is that restrooms are hidden and there is only one. If you need to use the restroom you need to speak with an employee. When I did that, the “announcer” was snarky and called me out three times in front of the group waiting. I think it was part of the act but she made me feel terrible about something that is actually my illness. Hopefully they will see this review… I did try to talk with her directly but she was not receptive.
