We went on the second Saturday of Sept 2022 for the Harbor Lights Cruise. The cruise was packed, about 700 people in all. We took this cruise to enjoy the NYC cityscape lights after sunset and take pictures to post in social media. The cruise was so crowded that it was impossible to take any pictures. Circle line has covered both decks of the boat with chairs (about 8 seats on each side per aisle, there are about 20 aisles), there is hardly any room left to stand and take pictures. To add to our misery they waited till 15 min before departure time to start boarding, had only two people to scan tickets and just one ramp to board ~700 people on the boat. The boat left 15 minutes after the official departure time. The boat itself was okay, it was clean and had some snack available for purchase and restrooms were clean. I don't think this experience was worth the time and money invested, save your money and take one of the free or paid commuter ferries around the city.

The rout is great. But the boat is huge, more like a ferry. There is limited outdoor seating and shading so it was incredibly crowded to be able to see anything. I felt like i was in NYC subway in a rush hour. There must have been 500 people on a boat. Next time i will pay more and get a smaller boat. Disappointed.
