The One World Observatory at New York's Freedom Tower offers you the chance to enjoy 360-degree views of the city. This ticket will allow you to skip the queues, so you can go straight to the lift which will whisk you up to the top in only 47 seconds. Once at the top, you'll have time to take in panoramic views of city sights from the 102nd floor.
The observatory is also home to an exhibition describing the history of the building and city. You'll be able to observe a virtual time-lapse of the city's skyline over the years or stand on a 'Sky Portal', which showcases a real-time, high-definition video of the streets below you.
