TOP OF THE ROCK - BEST TIME AND BEST VIEWS - I bought the VIP visit because my wife and I wanted to see a little more than the average person who just went on their own. We met at THE LOUNGE where we were treated to a nice hot cocoa. (It was 28 degrees). This visit would include an individual tour behind the scenes of 30 Rock and a ride on THE BEAM and THE SKYLIFT.
After a brief safety video for THE BEAM, we were met by Christine (our personal guide). She took us to many places inside 30 Rock and explained the history of the building and the neighborhood. Not knowing any of this information, it was fascinating how something this large was built during a stressful time in the USA (stock market collapse). Christine was very knowledgeable about the history and was able to answer all questions that my wife and I had.
She escorted us to THE BEAM. As VIPs, we were treated to an individual ride with no one else on THE BEAM. A great experience to rise high and see all the way to the horizon on all sides. A few pictures were taken by the BEAM TEAM.
We climbed some stairs to a higher point where we did the VIP thing again on THE SKYLIFT. This spiraled as it lifted off the roof to take you even higher than you've already been. You also get a 360 panorama view and photo.
After THE SKYLIFT, Christine answered final questions and said her goodbyes. We were then free to continue to hang out on our own including going to the CAFE for a complimentary champagne toast.
I'd recommend the VIP trip for anyone to get the full story of the building and the ability to see everything 30 Rock has to offer without having to deal with the crowds.
I'd like to thank Christine for a wonderful experience from start to finish.

VIP holiday edition - Excellent experience, small group guided through the Rockefeller centre, into areas that the general public don’t get access to. Up close to the famous Rockefeller Xmas Tree, did the beam and the sky lift which were amazing. Would definitely recommend

Amazing! It was truly an extraordinary experience! - The only way to see the Top of the Rock. The VIP tour is worth it. Starting with an amazing private lounge, a cool wash cloth, and a refreshing drink. You're guiding past the lines straight to the top with access to The Beam Experience and the Skylift Experience. We never waited, and the staff was amazing. Breath taking views and smooth entry. You can take your time to walk around and move between floors. There was no pressure to hurry. Great connect with staff. The VIP ticket is worth it and allows you to get around faster. The Beam experience and the Skylift give you an extra kick. We didn't get our free glass of champagne, but everything else was awesome.

Great experience with breathtaking view. - It was a great visit. Weather was perfect and we could take some amazing pictures from the skyline of New York and the sunset over Manhattan. The guide was friendly and had lots of information about the buildings and the area. Best part was skipping the lines in front of the elevators.

Worth Every Penny! - This experience was worth every penny! The description of the experience pales in comparison to what you receive - VIP access to the NBC Lounge, skip the line, champagne toast, digital access to all pictures on the beam and sky lift. My husband and I visited on Christmas Day and were so relieved that we bypassed all lines. The tour guide was knowledgeable and provided lots of useful background information. GREAT Experience!

famous landmark in New York City - The Rockefeller Center is one of the most famous landmarks in New York City. Located around the 70th floor is the observation deck known as Top of the Rock. It is extremely popular with tourists because it lacks obstructive glass panels, offering an unobstructed and breathtaking view of the city. If you plan to visit the platform, it’s highly recommended to book tickets in advance, as they can sell out quickly.
