Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    This was an amazing tour. I did the VIP tour thru the website and was blown away by the whole experience. My tour guide Renita was one of the best tour guides I have ever had the privelege of showing me around. Her passion for not only the building but if you are lucky to have Renita as your guide then you will feel the love she has for this place and for those who come to experience it. I was shown around with plenty of information about the history of the buiding and she also makes sure that you get the best experience and amazing photos. I would definitely recommend visiting and I hope you are as lucky as I was to get Renita as your guide.

    We discovered a perfect escape from the city buzz while staying in the city! The mix of wild gardens, art installations, and city views made for an unforgettable date. The sunset views between buildings were absolutely stunning.

    We did the Rockefeller Center architecture tour. The key to this tour is to have a great guide, and Jonathan was that guide. It was a wonderful, informative, and educational tour. Jonathan really knew his way around and his sense of humor made the tour exceptional. We really enjoyed it and would take it again.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Liberty Island. The adventure inside lady liberty was taxing on someone with my physical limitations, however worth the journey. We climbed the stairs all the way to the crown!

    The Brooklyn Bridge is one of New York City's most iconic landmarks, featured in countless movies and TV shows. It's a stunning bridge to walk across, offering incredible views of the skyline and the East River. The walk can be a bit long, but if you're up for it, it's definitely fun and rewarding—just be prepared for some crowds and a bit of exercise. Whether you're a tourist or a local, crossing the bridge is a memorable experience with breathtaking photo opportunities.

    The Rockefeller Center is a must-visit spot in the heart of NYC, offering shopping, dining, and unique attractions. The famous ice skating rink is a highlight, especially in winter. The center is also home to a variety of stores, restaurants, and events, including the iconic Christmas tree. With its central location and vibrant atmosphere, it’s a great place to explore year-round.
