we changed our trip for a 2 hour one as it was a sunny day,the guide was brilliant he explained the skyline and sights along the way, this trip was very busy and i mean full so getting their early and queuing was worth it.You get to see the whole of the coastline and the iconic sights, would recommend booking before you go.
This was a really nice short tour to do since you cannot go on the Statue of Liberty or Ellis Island due to Hurricane damage. Make sure you take a printed voucher, even if your confirmation says you can use an e-voucher. We had to run off to a little office to print the voucher to exchange for tickets, which was a pain and we were worried we would miss the boat by having to do this. Also, give yourself at least an hour to wait in line.
another great trip up the hudson river,nice clear day and calm waters brilliant.
