I liked that we went pretty fast on the boat and stopped near the Statue of Liberty. They gave plenty of time to take photos. And the captain had fun and did donuts in the water. One of the crewman also went around spraying people with a water gun, we loved it! Great time.

This was so fantastic! My expectations were surpassed by this experience. The energy and engagement from the team on the Beast was so contagious and fun. They made those 30 minutes the most fun and memorable of our time in the city
