Live the ultimate New York experience with this invitation to Skyride, the most amazing flight simulator around. Take your visit to the greatest city in the world to an even higher level with this one-of-a-kind attraction. With so many landmarks to see, so many famous avenues to walk down and so many places to visit, this virtual tour simulator is the perfect introduction to the ever surprising city of New York.
See your fantasies come true thanks to the state of the art technology that brings life to the specially designed platform on which you will see the show. The platform moves in perfect sync with a five meter HD screen. The world-famous actor Kevin Bacon provides the voice for the narration of your stunning half an hour adventure.
Throughout the duration of the ride, and ever accompanied by Bacon’s charming drone, feel as if you are gliding across one of the most famous skylines in the world.

All of this happens without leaving the luxurious and comfortable 86th floor of the iconic Empire State Building.
