“The food and wine selection was AWFUL. The bad was ok but not the music anybody would ever dance to. In fact, nobody danced a single song. Everyone was nice which is why I feel bad giving this one star review but it was a real waste of money and a horrible way to kill 3 hours of my day. There was no MC or anyone even pointing out what we were looking at or the landmarks. The whole thing was awkward and I couldn’t wait to get off.”

“I have done another tour like this but on the boat Manhattan II and this was not up to par in my opinion. Way too many people, the other one gives you a complimentary drink and you had plenty of space. Not to mention other boat went up both the East and west side. The pier was beyond trashy and unorganized. I would tell all to do the one that leaves out of Chelsea pier any day over this tour. Too expensive for what space you are given.”
