Night view is pretty
By ,
Went to the observatory at night- the view was neat. The narrated personal audio devices that were available were a little annonying. It was a little overpriced. Would suggest going during the day to see more.

Great views of the city
By ,
The skywalk is great to go to during the day or even at night. The views of the city at night are amazing, but it's hard to see the places you can learn about with the headset.

Great experience
By ,
I had been to Boston several times without visiting the Skywalk and I am sorry that I did not visit sooner. I was a little leery about the $10 admission fee, but between the audio guide and the panaromic views of Boston, the price is well worth it. This is the perfect place to go in the beginning of your trip because you will figure out which places in Boston you will most want to visit from the audio guide.

Excelent Views of the fredom trail, Back Bay, The Garden North end, Fenway Park. I highly recomend it. If you don't like hights than you may want to skip it.

WOW
By ,
This place is amazing, it looks kewl at the top. It's $10.50 but it is worth it. In the day time everything is bright and sunny but at night the sky is dark blue and you see all of the buildings lit-up....a must see if your going around there!

Great View!
By ,
The $10 fee was a bit high (you can get coupons for $2 off), but the views of Boston are fantastic! The self-guided audio tour is both informative and entertaining.
