Choose the 2-hour option t visit the GCT. Your walking tour will start at the intersection between Rockefeller Centre and St Patrick Cathedral, the magnificent Neo-Gothic church from 1878. Follow your Private Guide along 5th Avenue, one of the world’s most expensive streets, and admire its grand architecture and monuments, such as the flagship branch of the New York Public Library with its iconic statues of Patience and Fortitude Lions. As you get closer to the Grand Central you will also spot the towering Metlife Building and the 1930s art deco spire of Chrysler Building. Your Private Guide will provide interesting commentary on the grand Beaux-Arts facade of Grand Central and show you around the busy station. You will see highlights such as the $20 million opal-faced clock, the Largest Tiffany Glass Clock in the World, the 1500-ton Transportation statue and many more.

Located in the tallest building of the Rockefeller Center, the observation decks at the 67th, 69th and 70th floor offer unparalleled views of Empire State Building, Central Park and the iconic Manhattan skyline.
