Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this tour? Can kids join?

A: No age limit! Kids are totally welcome on the TopView night tour. Just keep in mind that it can be a bit loud with the live commentary, but little ones usually love the views! I took my 8-year-old and he had a blast taking pictures of the skyline.

Q: What should I wear? Is it cold at night on the bus?

A: Definitely dress in layers! It can get chilly up there in the open air, especially if you’re riding in the fall. A light jacket is a good idea. Also, keep in mind that you might want to wear closed-toe shoes since it can get breezy. I went in summer and ended up a bit cold, so better safe than sorry!

Q: Can we reschedule the tour if we can't make it?

A: Yes, you can reschedule. Just make sure to give them a call or check online as soon as you know you need to change your plans. They’re pretty flexible, but it's always best to notify them ahead of time. I had to change my date last minute, and they were super accommodating!

Looking for a fun night out in NYC? Consider the TopView Night Tour!

I recently took the TopView Night Tour and it was seriously amazing! The views of the Empire State Building and Brooklyn Bridge lit up at night were breathtaking. Our guide was super entertaining, sharing tons of fun trivia about the city. It lasted about 1.5 hours, which was just the right amount of time. I'm thinking about gifting this to my sister’s family for their trip next month!
