Best excursion we did in NYC. Wish we had done it at start of our trip. It was so informative & views of the Statue of Liberty are the best. Better than helicopter tour & ferry to statten island. So much closer to all the different suburbs of MYC. The speaker was very good & so knowledgable.was small boat so much more intimate & relaxing. Can buy snacks & drinks on board if complimentary drink isn’t enough. Highly recommend & will be back to do another one next time in NYC.
