An amazing experience with great views! We did a tour around 8pm and was in awe the whole time. There was both indoor and outdoor seating which was nice. Definitely recommend!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled you had an amazing experience on our Statue of Liberty Night Cruise. There’s something truly special about seeing the NYC skyline and Statue of Liberty illuminated at night. We’re glad you enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor seating and those incredible views. Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to welcome you aboard again soon!
Weather was bad, ride was cancelled. They gave us our bracelets then said the boat was full and we had to wait until next boat in rain
We left without going on the tour when the boat was 45 min late, there was no communication about what was going on and had dinner reservations. Then was told we wouldn't be refunded.
It’s a nice experience, you can see the NYC Skyline at night. But DONT replace the day visit to the statue island during the day with this. PS: DONT MAKE PLANS AFTER THE TOUR. THEY ARE LATE. One of the guy who disembarked when we boarded said “Good Luck”. Their tour supposed to start at 6pm but they started 7:30pm. Our schedule was 8:25pm, boat arrived around 9pm. Deboard and boarded every body takes another 30mins. So yeah, we finish around 10:45pm for the trip the supposed to finish at 9:05PM.
I traveled 9 1/2 hours all the way from Cincinnati, Ohio and made this one of my top experiences and I didn’t even get to do it because our time got pushed up because the boat wasn’t ready and they had us to come at 12 and it was after 12:30 and we still hadn’t been checked in, we were sitting outside in the sun roasting waiting for the boat to come from the dock so we left and you get no refund so I was out of $45! If I could put no stars, I would’ve done just that.
Windows were dirty and not good for taking pictures. Open deck space is very limited. Indoor area was hot. Food and drinks were expensive for less then mediocre quality
This is sad!! You book a trip 3 night to NYC, plan your trip around your nightly bookings through Viator and 2 of the 3 events booked don’t happen! The 45 minute Express trip text me the night before stating… “Her Text” -We have you scheduled sat night for a 8:30pm cruise in nyc we have a private event and the last departure will be 7pm we can change the cruise to tonight or sunday night or change the time to 7pm sat please confirm what is best. (Okay you didn’t know you had a private event scheduled before that) I was kind enough to change our plans and go with the 7pm, because really what other choice do I have, it’s the day before? Then…. She text me at 11:30 the day of with this- “ E can upgrade you to a 2 hour cruise departing close to Times Square at 7pm if you wish” Upgrade, absolutely my husband and 3 kids will be thrilled. Ha- We show up, it’s a complete cluster, the guy checking people into a line with 100 plus people tells me 3 times our system sucks but we don’t have your name in our reservations. So we stand there patiently waiting, watching the boat fill so full with people there’s no way we’re getting on it. First off what kind of upgrade is a jammed packed boat, and Second if the company changes your reservation TWICE they should be accommodating us!!! We had to purchase another 5 tickets to a different boat company!! My advice DO NOT book this trip! Another thing, I’d stay away from this app all together, as we are frantically searching for another boat to hop on, I get a text from our other reservation through this app for the next night canceling on us!! 2 out of 3 trips booked through this app didn’t happen and both canceled while we were in NY, at least have the decency to do it before we arrive so we can book other trips!
Great experience! This boat ride is a wonderful addition to any trip. Friendly staff. Little to no wait from scheduled time. 10/10
I didn’t go on the original Pier 36, transferred us to Pier 78. Very unforgettable experience, though.
The lady the did the tour was a true value I was born in New York and she really made that tour come alive with enriching us with New York’s history!!
