  • Eh.
    By cher_on_stilts, 11/10/07
    It was okay. Not as interesting as I would have thought. The most interesting part was outside. But. the Shops for gifts was so Exspensive. They need to rethink that part. Security was great but It needs some work to become community Friendly to visitor's.

  • A really valuable experience
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/23/07
    I feel that visiting the United Nations in NYC was a really valuable experience. It was definately worth the time and the money. I believe it is really important to see where the worlds important decisions are being made, and to educate ourselves on how they are made. I highly reccommend this visit.

  • Must See
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/28/07
    Although it took a while to get in (Security check), it was worth the wait. The tour guides are from different countries and very knowledgable. My teenaged kids even enjoyed it and inspired them to volunteer to help other countries.

    Get stamps made with your picture on them and be sure to send a postcard home from there.

  • Suprisingly interesting
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/16/05
    I was not looking forward to taking the tour when I went on vacation, it didn't interest me at all. But it turned otu to be one of my favorite things on the trip and I would definatly go back. Good for families, tours done in many languages, interesting even if you're not really into history like me.

  • Technically, you just left the country
    By Joseph, 08/12/05
    When you sit inside the Security Council
    chambers and you reflect on what all has taken place in that room, that alone is
    worth the time you take touring this
    lovely building along the East River. The
    tour is somewhat overpriced for the time
    they give you, I will say that. But that
    does not make it uninteresting, this is a lot
    more than ...

    If you go you should definately take the tour it only takes about an hour and it is really pretty interesting.
