Better than visiting ellis island

Published on Mar, 2023

I prefer the boat tours anyway and if you want great shots, get the last ferry at 4pm….. i did ellis island yrs ago and it was a waste of money

This was the best tour...

Published on Aug, 2022

This was the best tour ever!! I’ll most definitely be back to NYC !!! Thanks for the experience and time u have to show me around and the tourists was really funny and very friendly!!

Loved the ride

Published on Jun, 2021

Love the boat it was awesome and the tour guide guy was super funny and informative. The bost was decorated in a father's day theme which was perfect for my husband. The trip to New York was his father's day gift. And the kids loved it ages 4, 11, and 16 they had a ball. I would suggest before spending money on the ticket check Groupon first much cheaper. And you will need a special ban (extra charge) to sit at the very top. But the photographer was great so we got to go out to take the photo. It's worth it and once again a great experience all around.

great experience
