The experience was breath taking, the ferry ride was smooth, no motion sickness, we were close enough to get very good views and clear pictures of the statue of liberty

Our tour guide was great and funny. There were enough seats for everyone and room to take pictures. I would definitely book again when my friends come to visit.

It's an unforgettable experience. Stephanie fixed our booking mistake and got us on the boat in time. We booked an earlier time by mistake and didn't realize our mistake until just before getting to the dock 2 hours late.

Convenient way to see the statue of liberty. I didn’t get seasick at all. Lots of photo opportunities.
