Very good view of Manhattan from the east, south and west, and of the Statue of Liberty and the bridges. All that was missing was a guide who explained in Spanish.

One of the best ways to discover the Big Apple is from the water on a New York City Boat Tour. You'll take in the city’s incredible skyline and architecture from the city’s rivers!
Description

On this essential sightseeing cruise, you'll get the best views of New York from the water, and be able to take the best photos of the Statue of Liberty and other iconic monuments!

Sailing the Hudson River, we'll leave Battery Park behind before sailing up the East River and passing under the iconic Brooklyn Bridge, along with the Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges, and after arriving at the United Nations Headquarters, the boat turns around to begin the journey back to the port.

The journey comes with an audio guide in English, letting you know about the past and present of the unmissable icons that line the Big Apple's main artery.

Ticket validity

The ticket is valid for 7 days after the reservation date, so if you can’t go on the actual date, don’t worry.

Important information

Since there is no reserved seating on the boats, we recommend getting to Pier 83 at least 30 minutes before the departure time to validate the ticket and get seating.

The cruise might not be able to circumnavigate the whole island due to high tides.

Una opción muy interesante para tener una vista de la parte baja de Manhattan y la Estatua de la Libertad desde el agua. Si se quiere dar la vuelta a toda la isla hay otra opción mas larga. El único pero es que los comentarios del guía oficial de la naviera son en inglés. Translate this opinion into English.

A very interesting option to have a view of lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty from the water. If you want to go around the entire island there is another longer option. The only but is that the comments from the official guide of the shipping company are in English. Opinion translated. Show original.

Hicimos el tour de 1,5h en la parte de arriba del barco. Hacía fresquillo pero mereció la pena. Rodeas todo Manhattan y se acerca un poco a la Estatua de la Libertad. Me gustó mucho. Lo único que no disfruté es la narración que va haciendo un señor durante todo el paseo porque no la oía. Como alternativa tienen una app en la que hay una explicación de los lugares que ves en diferentes idiomas, eso sí, mucho más breve. Translate this opinion into English.

We did the 1.5h tour on top of the boat. It was cool but it was worth it. You circle all over Manhattan and get a little closer to the Statue of Liberty. I loved it. The only thing I did not enjoy is the narration that a man is making throughout the walk because he did not hear it. As an alternative they have an app in which there is an explanation of the places you see in different languages, yes, much shorter. Opinion translated. Show original.
