Better than Circle Line
by jcalotta
Took the family to enjoy a "Touristy" thing. Did the Circle line years ago, looked into Cirlce Line and NY Waterways -- and decided to "try these guys". The 90 minute tour was great. Boat was half Full -- all the Top Level seats went first. Beautiful sky. Once the Boat got underway they opened the front to passengers -- forget about the Top Level. As the trip went on passengers moved about and we all had seats of our choosing. Tour Guide was very personable and knowledgeable about the topics he spoke. We all thought the 90 minutes was "Just Right" - and I am glad I did not do the Circle Line 2 hour tour. Bathrooms were disgusting - but thats to be expected I guess. I used the bus they provide to get back into mid-town (saved some cab fare). On board concession stand was limited to beer, soda , water from a plastic cooler. Maybe they had packaged snacks - I didn't notice.
- Pros: Duration, Buses, Tour Guide, Cost
- Cons: Disgusting Bathrooms
Too many tourists
by emmdub
Crowded, cramped, full of tourists. The tour guide was great, but with so many people on the boat clamoring for the best spot to take a picture from, it was not a lot of fun. But you do get to see more than you see from the Staten Island Ferry.
Cruisin'
by keremsheli
By far the best way to travel around the city. Plenty of room on the cities sleekest and cleanest fleet of tour boats. No crowds liek the Cirle Line and the FREE shuttle bus makes it the best sightseeing value in NY!
