We loved this tour and we would highly recommend it for anyone wanting a great view of NYC from the water and a close up of the Statue of Liberty. We enjoyed the commentary, the team and the drinks. It was a great recommendation from friends and it was a big highlight on our trip to NYC! Thank you :)

An outstanding experience! The New York City Skyline and Statue of Liberty cruise was the perfect way to see the city. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing great insights throughout the trip, and the crew was friendly, attentive, and professional. The boat was classy, clean, and comfortable, and the small group size made it feel relaxed and personal. A truly memorable and well-run tour — highly recommended!

Very good overview of the area. Some of the referenced buildings were difficult to identify. Some of the important sites weren’t identified (eg, you’re looking at New Jersey). On the whole, very good.
Lovely trip

We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise on this lovely boat. The NYC skyline is beautiful day or night, and the views of the Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge were very close.
