Best Way to see the skyline and Statue

Wonderful alternative than the Staton Island Ferry. No fighting the big crowds. We had fruit & cheese tray. Perfect! Only 1 1/2 hours and thorough descriptions pointed out by guide. Great Yacht!

21st birthday boat trip
Wed, Jun 22, 11   2:30 PM Marcazzo Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My parents purchased this boat trip online as a 21st birthday treat. I went to New York for a few days with a friend and this was a very good way to see the famous city skyline from the water. It was very enjoyable to be on the water as the weather was hot. It was easy to book and an e -ticket and all the info/directions were sent to you to print off. We enjoyed ourselves as it was not busy onboard which made the trip feel special. Lots of superb photos. Thank you.

Amazing Day

I took my boyfriend on this cruise for his 25th Bday and it was an amazing experience because we both have never done anything like this b4; he loved it!! Everyone has to try it out once and I guarantee they will want to go back again. Friendly crew, beautiful scenes, drinks on board, and REASONABLE PRICES, what more can you ask for. Its one thing driving to places but its a whole other experience going on a cruise. Have to try it out people!

Great fun for me and my Mom.

I visited New York City for three days with my 72-year-old mom from the West Coast, who had never before seen New York. She managed to move around on this boat, carefully, even though she has had a stroke and so has some problems with balance and coordination. There were people of all ages on the boat, including families with young children, and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. The closeup view of the Statue of Liberty from the water was particularly lovely. I appreciated the free beverage from the bar, served in glassware, and also appreciated the fact that there was no pressure from the crew to buy additional drinks, and they were in fact very cheerful about serving glasses of water. The boat was attractive, with its hardwood floors and oriental carpet, and the crew and passengers on that Monday afternoon were all very pleasant.

Great Experience!

I took the cruise as a birthday event with my family from out of town and it was a great trip. The hour and a half cruise was enough time to see lower Manhattan's fantastic views. The service was professional and polite and the boat a perfect size. My family thoroughly enjoyed it!

Excellent!

This boat trip was for a group of women to celebrate my upcoming wedding, a sort of relaxed bridal shower. It was perfect, the staff were so friendly & attentive with drinks service and in taking photos for our group. The directions to the pier were clear & accurate, very easy to get a taxi adjacent. I cannot recommend this tour enough.

Very nice for the price...

Im from CT and took this boat ride with my husband for our anniversary and it was really nice. Very comfortable inside the seating area. It was nice how they give you a free drink and the captain was very entertaining. I would take this boat ride again and recommend it to anyone. Great price as well

Regret that we could not cancel this activity
Fri, Jun 3, 11   4:30 PM paulsritchie Male Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
My wife is pregnant but we thought she could handle this activity. Unfortunately she was too tired after flying from Fort Lauderdale that day so we did not attend. We could have given a few hours advanced notice of cancellation, but the ZERVE confirmation made it explicitly clear we could not get a refund under any circumstance. So, the lesson is to never reserve using this service. Lost $100. Won't happen again.
