How it Works
The 24, 48 or 72-hour tickets will have a corresponding validity. For example, if you book a 24-hour ticket and use it for the first time on Monday at 11 am, you can use it until 11 am the following day, in this case Tuesday. During the time it is valid, you can hop on and off the bus as many times as you like.
In the case of the 1-day ticket option, if you use it for the first time on a Monday at 11 am, you can use it until the end of that Monday at midnight, but you won't be able to use it until 11 am the following day.
If you book the Empire State Building Observatory ticket option, once you exchange your ticket for the sightseeing bus, you'll have to choose a time to enter the building. At that time, you'll be given your official ticket.
