The experience it's just lovely, I took really cool pictures and you can pay with your metro card
The Roosevelt Tram makes a trip approximately every 10 minutes. The trip takes about 4-5 minutes and you have great views, passing by the side of the Queensboro Bridge.
The trip can only be paid with the Metro card.
On Roosevelt Island there is not much to do, a short walk, take some photos or go to a restaurant.
The tramway is an interesting experience.

Add this review to the "tourist" pile! Even though we lived in NYC when we took the tramway, we took a scenic ride to Roosevelt Island and enjoyed taking a lap around the island. The tramway is a short ride overall, but it's a free connection if you travel via subway or bus to get there.
Super fun!! It gives a beautiful view in the night and only costs one round trip (of $5.50) to get on and come back!!!
The Roosevelt Island Tram is a great place to visit if you're in New York City. Just 4 minutes from Manhattan, you'll find yourself on Roosevelt Island with stunning views of the Double Bridge, city and river. The only drawback of not only this place, but also of New York is the complete lack of toilets. Finding a toilet in New York is a big problem !!!
