    Best views at sunset
    Recommend the ride at sunset. You get the best views and a great explanation of your surroundings. You also get to see the Brooklyn Bridge and The Liberty tower.

    Review of: New York Helicopter Tour: Ultimate Manhattan Sightseeing
    Amazing and exciting experience
    From the moment that we arrived at location we were treated professionally and everything was explained to us. The whole flying experience was spectacular with amazing sights and a very comfortable ride. The pilot kept us aware of key sites as we made our way along the river side. 😀

    Informative and Moving
    I highly recommend this tour and if you can get Tim Douglas as your tour guide you will have a fantastic experience. Tim made the tour informative and personal. He involved the participants and made it a very moving experience.

    Review of: Circle Line: New York City Harbor Lights Cruise
    Relaxed cruise
    I chose this activity as the closing one for a two week road trip in Canada and USA. I wanted a relaxed activity that will help us sum up our family adventures. The cruise is very relaxing and slow, it starts before dusk so you get a chance to see the beautiful sky line of NYC both in daytime and evening time, same goes for the Statue of Liberty. You can buy some drinks and snacks on board too.

    Review of: NYC Skyline Helicopter Tour
    Great service but not located in Manhattan
    I should make it absolutely clear that the helicopter ride and the staff were first rate. Friendly snd professional. The problem for us was the location. My fault but I thought it was located in Manhattan, it is not, it’s located a USD 70 taxi ride away from Manhattan in New Jersey.

    Review of: Full-Day New York "Must See" Small-Group Tour plus One World Observatory Ticket
    A must do when in New York
    Our tour was great, partly due to our guide Lyndsey. She was knowledgeable about the sites, gave good tips about where to eat and visit and was friendly from the first minute. This is a must at the start of your stay in New York.

    Review of: SUMMIT One Vanderbilt Experience Ticket
    Great view and photo opp
    I have been many times to Empire State observatory. So we decided to try Summit One. Its different, and well organized. But you get out with the sense of too much of a hype for a nice view. Agreed the use of mirrors is great and maybe is the difference in the experience but it takes too much time going through the 3 levels and too long to get out.

    Review of: NYC One World Observatory General Admission Ticket
    Great view of NYC
    Well worth a visit to get a great view of NYC. 360 degree viewing platform one of the highest points to view the city. Lift will take you 102 floors to the top of the building in 47 seconds. Check the queue before you buy a ticket you may not need to pay a premium to beat the line

    Review of: The Manhattan Helicopter Tour of New York
    Amazing memory
    The helicopter tour was an amazing memory for us. The pilot was a nice person and his commentary was legit. We liked him very much. The view from the sky was spectacular. We visited all the beautiful places in New York City.

    Review of: New York Dinner Cruise
    Lovely evening.
    The cruise was lovely. Friendly staff that jumped in to go the extra mile to get me and my wheelchair safely on board. I also appreciated that covid vaccine cards were required of all guests. My only disappointment was no outside dining as was advertised, but the views from the deck after dinner were beautiful.

    Review of: Bateaux New York Premier Dinner Cruise
    The best upscale cruise for a special occasion or holiday celebration!
    Wonderful experience! Good appetizers, food and drinks, Exceptional service (thanks to our waiter Eduardo, professional host and attentive staff) and amazing views from inside and the deck. We celebrated Independence Day 2022 (got some extra flags merch for free, nice gesture) on this cruise and paid a lot more than a regular price, but it was absolutely worth as a once in a lifetime experience with fireworks watching! We enjoyed it a lot as a family with a young kid (pre-teen). Best festive memories were made on this day on that boat!

    FYI
    - Come early, they started to seat around 5:15 pm. The boat left at 6, nobody was late.
    - Pro tip: you can ask a host to put you in a waitlist for the window view table in case someone is no-show.
    - Dress like for a fine dining/cocktail.

    Wow! That Hannah! Don't fire her!

    Seriously, our tour guide was named Hannah and she did an excellent job. Boomer humor for days! Plus, lots of interesting tidbits about the area.

    The cruise was just the right length of time for a family and provided great views of the Statue of Liberty for people on both sides of the boat. Hannah was willing to take pictures for anybody who wanted them. Would recommend!!!
