Traveler reviews
The hardest thing was...
The hardest thing was getting there with the traffic. I would give yourself a lot of time. It was a close call with just a few minutes before the boat left. The trip was amazing and I cannot say enough how much fun we had. The upper deck was full so we spent our time in the bow of the boat and loved the beautiful views.
Beautiful NY at night!!
Beautiful harbour cruise, lovely to see NY lit up at night & to get close to the Statue of Liberty (seen from both sides of the boat) Comfortable boat with adequate seating inside & out. Good commentary explaining the sights I'd recommend this trip
The organization was excellent...
The organization was excellent, and our guide was very helpful. The timing was exactly as stated, I recommend it.
Highly recommend
Beautiful and very informative. Andy was great! The views were surprising, the water was calming and this gave me details on the city I never knew I was interested in.
Definitely recommend this tour.
Mu husband wasn't sure about the length of the 2 hour cruise he thought it might be too long, but itvwas just right. The commentary thoughout was great and we could hear it perfectly without having to use the app. Would definitely recommend.
