We arrived at 1pm to find that the boat was already set to go. I realize that the time was 1pm however at 1pm we arrived the gate was already closed. Not to mention other people were waiting as well. About 5 people who were all there at 1 basically lost money

It was fantastic i went to New york with my grandaughter, and booked this as a surprise for her, worth every penny and great views of the statue of liberty
The Beast offers great views!
A little underwhlellelmed by this one. I expected more excitement and thrill, there was one moment during the ride that was the exhilarating time I'd imagined. Saying that. The staff were great, the views of the city & Statue of Liberty were amazing. Definitely worth doing if you want something a little different
what a great way to see...
what a great way to see NYC - a little bit of land mark info. team made sure everyone had great pictures - using their own phone, no photo sales pitch! Energetic music, speeding down the river and doing donuts on the water. what a blast.
Fantastic!
Absolutely brilliant! From start to finish we did nothing but laugh. The guys on Beast were so entertaining that they made it even more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend the Beast, it is also worth every penny.
