Traveler reviews
Second time around is a charm.
This is our second time booking the circle line cruise with Viator. The first time we went two years ago was a daytime cruise with my wife and five kids, this time we went on the evening cruise with my family again and friends and their children that flew in from Michigan. Everything was perfect from parking our vehicle in the parking lot getting on the boat everybody being friendly, having a snack, and the tour guide teaching us the city and also hilarious at times. Also, the second time around we were able to do a longer visit of the Statue of Liberty.If you've never been on the circle line, you need to do it at least once in your life.
Nice view of the city
Nice smooth ride However hard to hear guide if you are outside
Fantastic Experience!
Our guide was awesome! We learned so much history. The weather was perfect, and our photos are incredible!
A must do!
Perfect tour of the Hudson. The guide was very informative and we got some great pictures. The seating was a little crowded but other than that great!
