Compared to the chaos of Time's Square, this was a good option. The view of the fire works is wonderful, but it was about 12 degrees outside. We also had to deal with a near fight, as folks were drinking too much. Still fun however and if you happen to be in NYC on New Year's, it's a good deal.
We had so much looked forward to this trip and in the end queued up for over 1 hour to get on the boat,to be extremely disappointed with the whole excercise.
The boat was over full and whilst the view of New York from The Hudson was spectacular - there was nothing happening on board the boat.
Some hand out food was just average.
Midnight came and midnight went with no Count Down or fanfare @ Midnight.
Fireworks commenced away to our left 3 minutes before Midnight and @ Midnight other Fireworks started about 10/15 kms away @ least and were average @ best.
A very packed boat with a very high price and no where near the value espoused or promised.
The trip was great, good variety of food and drink, only downside could have done with more seating down stairs, only half the space used
