I had read on the internet that the Circle line trips were excellent but, the one to go on was the Harbor Lights tour, I have to say people were right, this was one of the highlights of our holiday! We got their early and managed to great great seats, it was a sell out trip so if your going get their for 6 pm for 7 pm. There is a full bar on board but its a huge queue so again, as soon as you get on board get your drink. We were so lucky to have great weather, it was really mild for October and although it was very warm we were glad to have taken a jumper with us to wear later in the evening. The tour is fantastic, you sail out to the statue of Liberty then up under Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge and finally Williams burg Bridge, turn and go all the way back. Its pitch black on the way back but with all the lights of lower Manhattan its a beautiful sight. Just a great night out!
