Amazing museum and excellent free guided tour. Maybe a good idea to allocate at least a week to museum ! Couple of hours provides with you just an overview

It was a very amazing experience touring around New York City. All through out our tour, the tour guide, who was also our driver provided many interesting information about the places that we were passing through or stopped by. For guidance if ever you’re interested in booking this tour, we met with our tour guide in Times Square in front of the Minskoff Theatre, where the Lion King Musical is shown on broadway. Our itinerary includes going to the Grand Central Terminal, short stop at the One World Trade Center, Wall St, Trinity Church, Charged Bull, Statue of Liberty (cruise: Admission is already included in the tour. The tour guide will provide you with the tickets at the pier. The cruise takes about an hour.), passed by chinatown, soho, then stopped for a while at the 5th Avenue and the Rockefeller center before heading back into the drop off area. Overall, I would recommend this tour because it enables you to visit many tourist spots in New York, while minimizing transport costs.

The wind was very strong. In the morning, you could choose your seat on the boat early, but you can also move around freely on the boat. The overall arrangement was quite good, worth a try.

There was a complete and detailed explanation throughout the journey. We checked the weather conditions in advance, so the scenery along the way was beautiful. It was an excellent value and well worth planning.

The stage show effects were fantastic. Booking with Klook was very convenient: as long as you have internet access, booking tickets is incredibly easy. I'll definitely use Klook to book tickets again if I have the chance.

I can see why everyone goes here. There's so much to see, and the view through the glass windows was incredibly open and expansive. I've been to other places, and it's really unpleasant when there are a lot of handprints on the windows. This place felt well-maintained. Also, the exhibits and balloons floating in the middle were subtly entertaining. It's a shame I didn't get to see it at night because I didn't have a night view ticket, but it was still great.
