What does the New York CityPASS include?

The New York CityPASS includes the must-see attractions you need to see in New York, especially if it’s your first visit. The City Pass gives you access to the following two attractions:

1. Admission to the Empire State Building observatory, New York’s most famous building. EXCLUSIVE: the City Pass offers you 2 admissions to the Empire State Building on the same day, one during the day whenever you want and one in the evening (between 10 PM and closing at 2 AM from May to August, between 8 PM and closing from September to April). A great way to see the view by day and by night!
2. Admission to the American Museum of Natural History, with the Space Show at the planetarium included. The museum traces the history of Earth and evolution. You’ll discover dinosaur skeletons and can even touch meteorites.

+ You can then choose 3 admissions from the following 6 attractions:

1. Admission to the Top of the Rock observatory. This observatory is located in the heart of Manhattan and offers you one of the most beautiful views of New York. You’ll have the Empire State Building right in front of you.
2. Admission to the National September 11 Memorial & Museum. This museum recounts hour by hour the tragic events of September 11, 2001. It’s located underground, against the foundations of the former World Trade Center towers. A place as impressive as it is moving. As a bonus, the New York City Pass offers you skip-the-line access to the museum: follow the sign indicating the line for pass holders.
3. A ferry ticket and admission to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. The ticket gives you access to both islands and their museums. The Statue of Liberty is the symbol of America and it’s unthinkable to visit New York without paying it a visit.
4. A Circle Line cruise (Harbor Lights cruise, Landmarks Cruise, Liberty Midtown Cruise, or Liberty Super Express). You choose the cruise, knowing that we recommend the famous Harbor Lights cruise, which takes place at night.
5. Admission to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. If you’ve never been aboard an aircraft carrier, here’s a unique opportunity! This museum, housed in a former US Navy aircraft carrier, tells the story of aviation and space exploration. You can even see a British Airways Concorde!
6. Admission to the Guggenheim Museum. This museum deserves a visit for two reasons: its original architecture and its eclectic collection.

You don’t need to decide which visits to make at the time of purchase. You can do so later at your convenience. We’re obviously available to answer any questions about using the pass.

However, the list of attractions and visits included in the city Pass may be changed at any time, without notice and without entitling you to compensation.
