    Great way to see Manhattan.
    Great Way to see Manhattan. Took the 1.5 hours tour as part of the go city pass. Tour was great commentary was great. Tip - get to the boat early 1 hour before, to ensure you get the seats you want. We were lucky to get an outside position on the back deck, weather was great so best position we could have asked for. However trip may not have been so good had we been in the centre of the deck or inside.

    Only downside but this seems to be the run of the mill for NY, is the incessant need to rip people off at any opportunity. A 330ml can of larger $10 dollars. No not a joke.

    A definite yes!
    This was a wonderful afternoon aboard a beautifully maintained craft. Doug, the lecturer, was outstanding. It was fascinating to experience the waters of Manhattan beyond the usual southern end and the famous bridges. To go around the northern end of the island was interesting and unusual. Not to say the closeup view of the Statue of Liberty was not utterly outstanding! The boat was well- staffed, and absolutely worth the price.

    Authentic and fun!
    I really enjoyed our food tour with Patrick, it was so nice to learn of the culture and history of Chinatown and Little Italy while enjoying authentic local and authentic food. I was grateful that there wasn’t a ton of walking and I was definitely full by the end. Patrick has great energy and enjoyed meeting all of the people in our group.

    Great tour
    Jared our guide was delightful and engaging as we learned about NYC
    Would have liked more time at 911 park/fountain areas 10 minutes was definitely not enough felt rushed there and too much time an Staton Island where most of us just waited to ride the ferry back.
    Jeff did a great time getting us all around the city.
    Jared has the perfect personality for his job and a wealth of knowledge 😊

    Must do for couples.
    We were 2 couples and our wives found this tour to have been the highlight of their first time in NYC. The pace was right, not too fast and not too slow. The driver new the history of the park and made the much more meaningful than a self tour would have been. Recommend going in mid-morning to early afternoon.

    Must do for couples.

    Fun tour, good value!
    Hannah studied food culture in college, and was a very informative guide. Food selections were plentiful and delicious, and she gave us insight to the background of the dishes. As a bonus they offered a selection of wines at one of the Italian restaurants.
