Excellent tour - at least when the weather is good

Very pleasant trip around Manhattan with a knowledgeable and approachable guide. We lucked out with the weather - you really want to be on the deck for most of the tour. If it were raining, we'd probably be less pleased. Food was excellent and plentiful, too.

It met all our expectations for a fine summer afternoon cruise. We so enjoyed the lecture on infrastructure. Our guide was personable and knowledgeable. He moved nicely between lecture and responding to queries. The staff was friendly and the service was as good as it could be considering the wave action in the rivers. The complimentary cheese and fruit spread was fresh and plentiful. A delightful tour that I will recommend to others.

Wonderful sights, interesting info - don't miss

This is a wonderful introduction or reminder about how beautiful NY is. The boat circles the island, while a very knowledable individual provides interesting history or facts about the architecture or infra-structure (bridges, tunnels, water towers, etc) you are seeing. The boat is lovely and intimate-- comfortable and close to the water, so your sight lines are essentially shore-level which provides interesting perspective. Crew is helpful and snacks are tasty. Would recommend to everyone

A perfect way to spend a sunny NYC afternoon, and an ideal way to obtain a useful perspective on the city's infrastructure. Our guide was both knowledgeable and personable. Fresh air, knowledge, and perspective: who could ask for more?

Very pleased, the crew members were all very professional and friendly and the guide knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The boat was a nice size, small(but not cramped) and cozy. The snacks where plentifully but the website was not clear so I pre-ordered a cheese plate but that was not necessary. Very nice way to send time in the City.

A very smooth ride around Manhattan with plenty of room to spread out and wander around the boat. Great food and drink with wonderful service. A very knowledgable guide with lots of detailed information regarding all the sights, not just the ones in the prepared tour.

Informative, Exciting and Picturesque

Well, just as my title says really. The commentry was thoroughly interesting, well informed and humerous. Some facts revealed about the New York infrastructure were really surprising. The food and drink provided was just right for the occasion, and the price of repeat drinks was not over inflated. The beautiful boat took us through still waters and choppy waters with equal ease. Being on deck in some of the more choppy waters was an experience in itself. Naturally, viewing the entire scenery on both sides whilst circumnavigating Manhattan has got to be the best way to see it. We would thoroughly reccomend this tour and wish the organisers and crew well.
