    This was an awesome experience. Darius is very passionate and knowledgeable. His historic knowledge made the experience come to life. Strongly recommend this tour, especially if Darius is your guide.

    We could only view this from the outside as it was closed. My wife was uninspired but I thought it was great. Looks like a spaceship has just landed in middle of NYC.

    I didn’t have an experience I showed up and waited for the tour to begin and no tour guide came I couldn’t get in touch at first and finally a half hour later someone called me and told me that they canceled the tour because they weren’t enough people but no one contacted me my friend came into the city to meet me and I traveled five hours to get there. I’m expecting a refund on my credit card and I also ask them for compensation in a financial apology because that was disgraceful.

    While visiting the Hudson Yards we came upon "The Vessel". It is an amazing architectural structure! In my opinion the best time to visit is at night when it is illuminated.Be sure to climb all the way up (9 floors) to take in the amazing views of the city, rail road yard and New Jersey. Well worth the time to see.......
