Last minute we had to rush to pier 78 from 36 because they changed the location the minute it was supposed to take off. Our tour was at 945 and they called us at 953. The uber cost 40 dollars and we barely made the tour.

If your flight is delayed (even with communication hours before expected tour) they do it respond to rebook to another time. The # to Viator is a call center- and even though they were nice- they pretty much said they couldn’t help. They gave me a local # and that person did not return calls. Tour was pre-paid.

DO NOT EVER USE THIS COMPANY OR SERVICE. We booked the 545 trip and showed up and apparently the company cancelled. Never called us. There were multiple people waiting for a ferry that wasn’t there. My kids missed out on seeing the Statue of Liberty. This company shouldn’t list trips that don’t exist. Do not book with them or use them!

Great way to see the Statue of Liberty, the guide was very knowledgeable. We needed to squeeze in a trip and this was exactly what we needed.

Boat cruise was great at night. Darius was a great host and kept the energy and music up. Fun experience

This was an express trip at 6 pm because we didn’t have a lot of time but it was perfect. Not only did we get see the Statue of Liberty, we saw the beauty of the sunset and the skyline lit up at night.

The boat left late, so plan to leave extra time before your next activity. At check-in, we were given water for our thirsty, sun worn grandson.

Supposed to get free drinks, but that wasn't true. Kids were running everywhere. I give it one star for the false advertisement regarding free drinks. There was no soap in the restrooms. More chairs are needed on the boat; people were looking for chairs. Very poor service. ANE WHEN YOU RETURN THEY WANT A TIP.

This was a good, inexpensive, one-hour cruise. The boat is a little older and dated but gets the job done of seeing the Statue of Liberty up close, including slowing down to get plenty of photos. The tour is also narrated with plenty of other sites to see. There was also a drink bar and snacks available for purchase. The crew was really friendly too.
