I absolutely loved the circle line cruise of the whole Manhattan Island. It was so interesting to see the various parts of the city and learn about the history behind all of them. The view from the water is amazing and we enjoyed them from inside a heated boat so it didn’t matter that we visited in December. We got to see so many NYC landmarks and learn more about them. We would have never known some of the fascinating things about BYC had we not done this tour. Our tour guide Andy was amazing. He mentioned he grew up in Brooklyn and was very knowledgeable about the whole city of NYC. He was also entertaining and funny. This was one of my favorite things we did on vacation.

Although it was a rainy December day, we were still able to see much and enjoy the guides talk as we went. David was very skilled at what he did in presenting the information in a fun way!
