Wonderful NYC Experience - I have visited NYC countless times in the past. We decided to take this tour during a recent visit. Our tour guide Darius was funny, knowledgeable, and entertaining. The tour itself was terrific. Seeing the New York skyline and the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and Brooklyn Bridge by water was truly incredible. I highly recommend this tour.

Great views and info! - The tour guide was really excellent. Great info shared. Wish we would have gone earlier in the trip, would have given us insight on what we might like to really do in the city. It was a great visit… so now we know what to do next time! Lovely to be out on the water.

Great tour - Best Cruise in New York, other cruises didn't take the time to let you get great pictures, or have too many people to have a good view. The guide sang a song at the end, which sounds cheesy, but he was fantastic.

Very Enjoyable NYC cruise - Really enjoyable short NYC cruise. We got to see plenty of the NYC sites and very close to the Statue of Liberty. Duration was perfect for our family (15 and 5 year old sons !). Great commentary provided too which was factual and fun. Bar on board to buy drinks, snacks etc. We would happily recommend this trip.

Terrible no class - Terrible company. Bought 45 dollar ticket. When I checked in they had a sign for 29 dollars for the same cruise. The employees said we have a low price guarantee and you can get the 16 dollar difference. I emailed you turned it down.
