5.00This was a fun way to see the city from the water. We passed by several landmarks that we weren't able to see otherwise. It was neat how close we were able to get to the statue of liberty. The view isn't great from inside, but there are plenty of spots outside to stand and look and take pictures. Everyone that worked there was great and they all worked really hard. I would totally recommend this as an inexpensive way to see the city skyline.
Great tour and spectacular views

5.00We enjoyed our guided boat trip round around some of the major New York landmarks. The boat was clean and the staff were professional and attentive. We were up-sold the VIP option on arrival but for $20 per person we felt it was worth it. The commentary was informative and was accompanied by a good New York themed playlist. The highlight was the Statue of Liberty; the boat changed positions so that we could all get decent photos. My only negative comment is that I don't recall there being a safety briefing telling us where to find life jackets and what to do in an emergency.
