The perfect way to see Lady Liberty. Seats inside and outside, luckily we got inside seats since it was the coldest day of the year! Tim was our guide with lots of cool facts about the history, as well as other landmarks in the area including the Brooklynn Bridge.

The boat trip was good and the view of the statute of liberty was fantastic however I found the guide to be a bit too much. She continuously talked about money and how much things cost in the city and I felt some comments were not very positive. She may have been trying to be helpful but by the end of the tour and hearing an hour of money saving tips we felt quite exhausted! The tour guide we had on other trips gave advice and told us about the sites etc but it was upbeat and fun!
