This cruise is not cheap, but it is worth it. Some nearly-witty guy talks some about the history of New York City, and even New Jersey, but knows enough to be quiet, especially towards the end of the trip. And he does pass on lots of useful information amidst his corny jokes. The tour itself is rich and exciting. We left at sunset, so everything got darker by the minute during the two hour tour. The bridges over the East River are fabulous, including maybe the most beautiful bridge in the US, the Brooklyn about which the guide says lots and you'll want to read more after (incredible story of genius, passion, ruthlessness). Best view of the Statue of Liberty possible--better than on her island. One tip: if you want to sit outside, get there EARLY. Outside seats fill up fast and if you get there early you can get seats on either side of the boat--better than the middle section--where nobody will cut in front of you as they take pictures.
