From the moment we boarded, everything felt well-organized and welcoming. The staff were friendly and efficient, making the check-in and seating process smooth. The real highlight, of course, was the view. Seeing the skyline from the water gives you an entirely different appreciation for the city's architecture and scale. Passing by iconic landmarks while listening to the live narration added a lot of depth to the experience. Our tour guide, Andrew, was especially knowledgeable about the history of the city--he shared fascinating facts, stories, and context that really brought each landmark to life, all while keeping things engaging and easy to follow. The boat itself was clean and comfortable, with plenty of space to move around and take photos. Whether you prefer sitting inside or enjoying the open-air deck, there's a good spot for everyone. I especially appreciated how unhurried the cruise felt; there was enough time to soak in each sight without feeling rushed. I'd highly recommend the Circle Line Sightseeing Cruise to both visitors and locals--it's a relaxing, informative, and scenic way to see the city from a whole new angle.

But seeing it in real life for the first time... that moment stays with you. It's iconic, powerful, and absolutely beautiful from the water. The tour itself was relaxing and informative. It gave us time to take in the view, snap some photos, and just appreciate being so close to one of the most recognized landmarks in the world. We did this on day 3 of our trip, and it felt like the perfect timing -- not too early when you're still adjusting, but not too late when you've already seen too much. We went around 11:00 AM, and it wasn't overly crowded, which made it even more enjoyable. If you're coming to New York, I definitely recommend making time to see the Statue of Liberty. It's not just a symbol of the city -- it's a symbol of the country And experiencing it in person gives you a new appreciation for that. Bring your camera, soak in the moment, and enjoy the breeze from the boat -- it's totally worth it. RECOMMEND (Personally mine)

Seeing the skyline, bridges, and landmarks from the water gives you a completely different perspective of the city that you just can't get from walking around. The tour was relaxing, scenic, and very informative. As the boat moved through the Hudson and East River, we got incredible views of the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge, the Statue of Liberty, and the Lower Manhattan skyline. Seeing One World Trade Center towering over the skyline from the water looked especially impressive. The weather was perfect during the ride, which made the whole experience even better. One of the highlights was getting close to the Statue of Liberty. It's one thing seeing it in photos, but seeing it up close from the boat really makes you appreciate how iconic it is. The views of the city skyline throughout the tour were amazing, especially with the open water and panoramic views all around. The boat itself was comfortable with plenty of seating and outdoor viewing areas, and the atmosphere was great for both tourists and families. If you're visiting New York for the first time, this is definitely one of those experiences worth doing because you get to see so many famous landmarks in one trip while enjoying the views the entire time.

I researched various options and saw the many positive reviews for this company. After reading their itinerary and how they cover both uptown and downtown landmarks as well as a boat ride past the Statue of Liberty, we were sold and booked immediately. The day of our tour, we arrived at our meeting location that was outside of McDonald's. I knew from reading other reviews that we would be looking for a small unmarked van. We walked up to the driver and gave our name, he was able to check us in before I could even pull up our digital tickets. Our tour was small, a total of 10 people, plus our guide, Bryant, our driver, and their "supervisor" This was exactly what we were looking for; personalized service, access to many different points of interest, a knowledgeable guide who shared a lot of information with us and who had an awesome personality which made the tour very fun for everyone.

Our step counter registered around 5300 steps. - The bus was hot. We had to ask the driver every time we got on to turn on the A/C.
