Where-To-Go Wednesday- Madison Square Garden All Access Tour

What: Madison Square Garden All Access Tour
         
Where: Between 7th and 8th Ave.
             31st to 33rd St.
             Tour starts at Chase Square at the MSG Store

Who: Tweens and Up
Me - Madison Square Garden All Access Tour was enjoyable. I never went to an event at Madison Square Garden before, but I want to go to one especially now that I have been on the tour. The tickets they gave us to go on the tour looked like VIP passes to an event. They said "Madison Square Garden All Access Tour." We wore them around our necks like real VIP passes.  I liked the tour it was very interesting. We got to visit two suites. One was a private suite. It had a couches, chairs, a food area, two big screen TVs and a private bathroom. It was basically like an apartment except it didn't have any beds. The other suite was more like a lounge and restaurant area. It was still exclusive but not as private. There was an area where they had 366 pictures one for a special event that happened for every day of the year including leap day. There were cases with pictures and memorabilia of famous events that happened in the Garden. We got to see a view of the arena from three different areas of the stadium including the upper level, the floor and a special area called The Chase Bridge. The Madison Square Garden All Access Tour was a really fun experience, and I think you should really go if you have the chance.

Mom - The current Madison Square Garden is actually the third arena of that name and is known as the World's Most  Famous Arena. Whether you have been to an event there or not, their All Access Tour is definitely worth taking. This tour has something for everyone. Whether you are into concerts, sports, the circus or whatever, Madison Square Garden has had it all. The tour gives you the opportunity to learn about and relive many great memories of the numerous events that have been held at the Garden over its history.  The Garden 366  exhibit literally includes a special event that occurred on every single day of the year plus leap day. There are also multiple display cases commemorating historic events that occurred at the Garden including Wayne Gretsky's retirement, Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali's first fight and the time when Marilyn Monroe historically serenaded President Kennedy on his birthday. You will also get to experience the views from every area of the stadium from the highest level to the lowest level as well as visit every kind of luxury suite from the most private to the most exclusive. You will even see the Knicks and the Rangers locker rooms. This tour will definitely make you feel like a VIP. Although the tour does involve a lot of walking and climbing up and down stairs, accommodations can be made for strollers and/or wheelchairs. However, we would not recommend the tour for very young children who would probably be bored. Older children especially those that love sports and/or music should enjoy it though.

And that's our view. Tune in tomorrow for Theater Thursday.
