The Climb was such a unique NYC experience! Ive been to the Edge on vebery trip I’ve taken to the city and this made it so different compared to the others. Sure it’s pricey but making memories with your partner is priceless! Emily and Angel were our guides and made it such a fun activity. Best view of the city for sure. Glad we decided to splurge and climb up and out of our comfort zones.

This experience was incredible! I would 100% recommend even if you’re scared of heights! You get the best unobstructed views of the city. The staff were really friendly and attentive. Showtime and Keyur were so kind and helped us massively pluck up the courage to hang off the edge! They are an absolute credit to this experience so thank you so much for making this the best attraction we’ve done in New York!

City Climb at The Edge was such an incredible experience! Our guides Kay and Vanessa were incredibly professional, enthusiastic, and made us feel safe and comfortable every step of the way. The views from the top were absolutely insane — leaning out over the edge and looking at the city like that is something I’ll never forget. It’s definitely a bit of an adrenaline rush, but in the best way. They also took great photos and videos for us to look back on. If you’re even a little curious about it, I say go for it! It’s such a fun and unique way to experience NYC for both locals and tourists.

Absolutely Amazing!!!! Worth every penny!!! Loved the whole experience specially the guide Devon was so great i felt like i could trust him to lean back because it was scarry at first but i had the best time. The only thing i didn’t like is that they only make one personal video of the lean and is not fair for some of us who were scare the video comes out bad. but i’ll never forget this experience. Deff recommend going on sunset look at this view👇🏻 also thank you to jose the guy in the front he spoke to me for like half hour taking all of my doubts ❤️🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

I enjoyed my first City Climb so much that it was on my “must-do” list for my holiday trip to NYC and it did not disappoint. The entire team was awesome and upbeat. Angel and Eugene made a cold, blustery climb a lot of fun. I’m looking forward to my next Climb!
