First of all, crousie was delayed for an hour, so we were just standing and waiting. When we departed, we went to some boat filling station, stayed there for 15 min, then on way back we just pased statue from distance, so we didnt see statue. When we went back, we were waiting on the boat for another half hour to get out of it. It was tourture. Didnt enyoy at all.
Caution while booking this. They change the pick up location and inform you just a few hours before. You will end up paying heavy charges for Cab to reach their new pick up point
It was nice to sit and look at the city skyline. I do wish the speaker worked on the upper deck of the boat.
Terrible! They cancelled and never notified us!! We showed up to an empty dock! Don’t waste your money!
Apparently the company and Viator do not communicate with each other at all. Our trip was first rescheduled then canceled without an opportunity to request a refund. Just been told to contact someone else everytime we ask.
Couldn’t see out the windows very spotty, I understand with it getting wet as it’s going to how ever it could be better, video before booking is nothing like the tour. For the price it wasn’t bad but wouldn’t do it again.
Boarding too disorganized , took long time and ask for paper tickets . Tour explanation only you can her on the back , not inside the boat.
Not organized at all and crew got mad when guests would ask questions since no instructions were given
This particular boat did not follow the pathway outlined in the description. We went to the Statue of Liberty and turned around, and did not go onto the east side of manhattan. There was no tour guide telling us what we saw. As we approached the dock, the music turned from pop music to hardcore explicit rap. There were probably 20 kids on board. Completely inappropriate.

The boat was extremely late and we never got on it. We ended up taking another boat around the city.
We apologize for the confusion regarding the departure. The vessel did operate as scheduled, however due to a private event there was an adjustment, and our sister boat honored your tickets at no additional charge. We’re glad you were still able to enjoy a cruise around the city, and no extra payment was required on your end. Thank you for your feedback and we appreciate your understanding.
