 A great way to save money and time at the major sights, as well as a chance to see stuff you maybe wouldn't pay to get into! Feb 13, 2005
This is a great card for anyone visitng NYC and wanting to see all the top stuff and not pay top price for things. It might seem a big lay out at one time, but the amount you hand over for entry to attractions quickly out numbers it.
You get free entry to more than 40 attractions ranging from the United Nations tour (we did that), Empire State Building (did it), Rockefeller Centre tour and the Central Park Zoo. You can also cut queues with it - very helpful - get discounts at places like Macy's and Bloomingdale's and discounts of up to 25% on Broadway tickets. You also get a free guidebook (140-ish pages), You choose either a 1,2,3 or 7 day pass which for adults (12 years plus) costs from $69 to $165 - they sometimes have web sales, so it's worth checking before you go. We used our 3 day card quite a lot - Empire State, NBC Studio Tour, we got a discount on our helicopter flight, Circle Line Sightseeing Tour (ferry to Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island) was free, the New York skyride at ESB, and there's also discounts at some eateries. It was great for us because the weather was so bad we could duck into places when the rain came in which is how we came to be doing the CNN tour! We'd definitely get it again when we go back - you can now get into the Bodies exhibition which is about $25 each for entry. I think the attractions change so just check the website. Highly recommended - anything that makes life easier is good in my book!  Part of the Random Travel Photos, Videos and Memories from through the Years travel blog

We
had my beloved Strongbow Cider in the pub and walked on through the
Financial District passing Wall Street and the Trinity Church (where
the treasure of the Templars is hidden knowingly...lol). Although
I originally didn´t want to see Ground Zero, we went there anyway
because it was on the way. I don´t comment this any further. We
decided… New York - article from July 2006 (copy-pasted from old blog) |

This is so people don’t just buy one pass and use it for everyone in their party. One pass per person. I was concerned that we would have to wait for a few more minutes and miss another train. But, it didn’t happen. We got on the very next train, which was an express… Day Four--The Lady and Broadway |

pass through. Maybe it’s the Blink 182 I’m listening to. Or maybe it’s the super friendly blonde Aer Lingus staff with their blue and green outfits. Or maybe it's reading The New Testament.
They passed out cards for non-European… Flight 104 Over The Pond |

I bought a New York Pass, which you pay one large amount & then you have entry to a heap of attractions & tours. So I bought just a 2-day pass & then made sure I got my money's worth by fitting in as many things as possible… I am a tourist! |
