This an amazing trip and great value for the money. You get to see some parts of New York that you would not normally see. The tour guide's commentary was top class.

This was my second Manhattan cruise in a month, and I booked both through Viator. Booking through Viator allowed me to bypass the ticket purchase line and immediately pick up my tickets from the voucher window. As far as the cruise goes, I really loved how the narrator knew everything about Manhattan's features and landmarks. He did a great job explaining the economics of living in Manhattan and the history of the various neighborhoods.

Just like all the other reviewers, I have to say that the cruise was very well narrated and included many, many details and facts. When you take this cruise, you'll see everything! It was a very relaxing 3 hours, and we met many interesting people on board. The crew was very courteous and helpful; we had a baby with us. We liked it so much we're doing it again with our older children next month. Five stars!

Delightful trip around Manhattan! Humorous guide with pertinent facts that we never knew after being long time residents of New York. Thank you for so much fun!

A fantastic cruise completely encircling Manhattan Island and showing a wonderful variety of sights. The journey along the Harlem River was quite an adventure and a contrast to the more familiar sights around the lower half of Manhattan. I ran out of video film not long after the cruise headed up the East River and as a result was sorely tempted to do it all over again. If I had the time I may well have done! Highly recommended!

Really worthwhile as you get a real skyline view from all angles and actually see parts of Manhattan that you probably would not see otherwise.

It was sunny so even more pleasant in winter. You can see from the water the city of Manhattan and stay inside or outside the boat. The guide was very interesting full of anecdotes. Very good.

Brilliant way to see New York if you don't have a lot of time. We were lucky as the weather was great the day we went - commentary was excellent too. A must on your list of things to do.

We woke up to sleet and cold weather and were afraid that our tour would not take place. As soon as we boarded the boat our spirits lifted. The guide was an absolute gentleman who made our trip extra special and told us all we needed to know.
