About this tour

See New York City from its lively streets and a sky-high outdoor deck on this three-hour neighborhood tour. Begin at Rockefeller Center, where your guide shares the story behind the landmark complex and its role in city life. Stroll through Central Plaza, home to the famous ice rink in winter and an outdoor café in summer, and admire the fountains and their seasonal floral displays.

Continue toward Hudson Yards, a striking modern district built on a vast private real estate development. Along the way, explore the neighborhood and learn about its place in New York’s changing cityscape. The tour culminates at The Edge, where an outdoor viewing deck suspended high above the streets opens onto 360-degree city views. Your ticket includes entry to The Edge, while Times Square and Rockefeller Center are also part of the listed tour inclusions.

From classic Midtown landmarks to the bold architecture of Hudson Yards, this New York City observation deck and neighborhood tour pairs a guided walk with a memorable view from above. Meet your guide in front of the Atlas on 5th Avenue, then get ready to see the city from a fresh perspective.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 3.57 from 14 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in New York City
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.3.
