Manhattan Sightseeing Cruise
One of the best ways to discover the Big Apple is from the water, on a New York City Boat Tour. Take in the city’s incredible skyline and architecture from the city’s rivers.
Manhattan Sightseeing Cruise
On this essential sightseeing cruise, you'll get the best views of New York from the water, and be able to take the best photos of the Statue of Liberty and other iconic monuments!
Sailing the Hudson River we'll leave Battery Park behind before sailing up the East River and passing under the iconic Brooklyn Bridge, along with the Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges, and after arriving at the United Nations Headquarters the boat turns around to begin the journey back to the port.
The whole journey comes with narration in English, letting you know about the past and present of the unmissable icons which line the Big Apple's main artery.
