Rise NY was a unique experience in the heart of NY that was a surprisingly simple amusement. The staff was organized and courteous. The ride was the highlight of the young people and I happened to be joined by a group of rowdy overly excited teens on a field trip. They only cared about the ride none of the wonderful history they strolled right through along with their chaperone. I may have been the hold up observing and enjoying every room! LOL oh well. I recommend this highly, however, short people or kids under 40 inches cannot go on the ride, unfortunately.

The ride at the end incredible very realistic very informative place to visit gave good history of New York in all aspects

The VR ride at the end was great fun but the history exhibitions one has to pass through before getting to it were dull and unimaginative. Fortunately, I went early so I wasn't held up by crowds of people and could get through quickly. An expensive 40 minutes!

VytauteMa

I had a lot of fun. Interesting New York history, which encouraged to inquire even more about it. The ride in the end was absolutely a blast, rely recommending to try!

From the start, the experience was jammed packed with historical events and stories presented in the most unique ways. My eleven year old loved every moment as we took our time and absorbed every room.

Went to see if we could book tickets and managed to get straight in! No waiting around for anything. Really enjoyed it. The ride at the end was really good!

Great new tour in NY, we went with the family, having visited NY for the first time in years, so this was a great new option for us and we were able to enjoy as a group as newbies. The museum-style section is really interesting, laid out well and interesting stuff to learn about New York, the kids loved it and they are never easier entertained in a museum. The highlight is clearly the 4D experience at the end, this was even better than we expected, would highly recommend

Frances_R

The ride was amazing! The rest could have been alot more interactive. But the staff was friendly & accomodating

The staff was nice and energetic. The tour was just short enough to not be too long. The end ride is like Soaring at Disney. My family loved it and really would like this in Atlanta.
