Tourists visiting New York City have a staggering number of options for sightseeing, whether they are visiting for a single day or a long weekend. The long list of iconic things to do in NYC includes visiting Manhattan points of interest like skyscrapers and parks as well as traveling on the city streets, underground, and by water. Some of the most impressive NYC attractions are visible from the waters of New York Harbor, such as the Statue of Liberty and the Brooklyn Bridge. At Liberty Cruise NYC, we offer popular boat tours that are the best way to see these New York City sights, and when you book online with us, you’ll get the best value on our sightseeing packages and boat tours.
Our boat tours depart from the Pier 36 (299 South St), New York, NY 10002, just northwest of the Financial District, venturing into New York Harbor to give you the most exciting views of the Big Apple. You’ll see memorable sights including Ellis Island, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the impressive Manhattan skyline. Ellis Island is where immigrants began their adventure in America during the 20th century, and now, this island is officially a part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument. The Manhattan skyline includes the new World Trade Center, the buildings making up the Financial District, and many more prominent downtown Manhattan attractions. And the Brooklyn Bridge has been an iconic landmark in NYC since 1883. But of course, perhaps the most iconic sight in all of New York is the Statue of Liberty, which you’ll be able to see as our tour boat passes by. Take a selfie with Lady Liberty or just look up and admire the view of her from the water as you listen to our expert guides tell of the statue’s history.
