"A view from the water"
By Kelsie from Honolulu, HI on 4/4/2011
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Smart Destinations Statue of Liberty Express Cruise:

It was my first time in NYC and we only had HALF day. I thought this was great because i was able to get close to the statue of liberty as well as see the city from the water. It was beautiful and breath taking. I'm usually the type that gets sea sick, but i don't think we were in the water still enough to get to that point. i highly suggest this attraction if you want to get close to the statue of liberty!

Comments about Smart Destinations Statue of Liberty Express Cruise:

Had a very nice time seeing the sights in lower Manhattan. Was a very hot morning - almost 95, thought we would try to get out on the water to cool off. Was a good idea. Cruised around the bottom tip of the city and saw the Statue of Liberty and the skyline. The kids were most amazed at the huge container ships over in New Jersey! Our youngest had never been on a boat so was a special treat for him. Also great was the crew, who pointed out neat things on the boat and introduced us to the captain, even though the boat was full.
