See NYC Landmarks, Statue of Liberty, Amazing Views of NYC in 90 Minutes

Head down the mighty Hudson River, past Hudson Yards and Little Island, gliding by the towering One World Trade Center, past Ellis Island until you are just feet away from the Statue of Liberty. Experience breathtaking views of lower Manhattan before quietly slipping under the Brooklyn, Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges for a short journey up the East River before returning to Pier 83 in midtown Manhattan. See all of this in less time than it takes to see a matinee.

You'll ride in comfort on one of our our modern, temperature-controlled, Bronx-class boats, each with a huge outdoor deck and multiple concessions areas to purchase food and drinks, including a full bar.

Our world-famous tour guides narrate the story of New York City as you sit back and relax in the comfort of our modern boats.
