Ok - did the Oktoberfest cruise and Starsha the bartender is AMAZING!!!!! She was very attentive, sweet and the best employee on the boat. We like Starsha. We love Starsha.

It's interesting, but they explain everything in English. It would be interesting if they had audio guides. We chose the long cruise and I think that with the short one we would have left over

Are reservations required?

Cathy C | Oct 8, 2021
BRIAN MANDEL | Oct 8, 2021

Reservations are NOT required BUT I do recommend it. Because Seating is first come first serve. Show up (30 minutes early )get in line and a staff member will come down the line to hand you your ticket. Don't waste your money on purchasing VIP seating reservations don't allow you to pick your seat but it does allow you to get everything out of the way so when you get there you can be near the front of the line and pick a better seat. good luck, enjoy it's a great sightseeing Cruise.

No life jackets but I think it is savety on board. But for a 3 years old child I think it is a not a good idea to do this trip. It is too long and for you not really a pleasure if you have always to take care of her.

Deepak Dakhore | Oct 9, 2018

Best of NYC goes around Manhattan island and is a day time tour. Landmarks cruise which only covers southern half of Manhattan from Pier 86 to the Brooklyn bridge and back, also a daytime tour. Liberty tour I believe covers only the Liberty Island and Statue of Liberty, also during the day. Harbour Lights is a romantic cruise covering the same route as Landmarks cruise but at night time when the city is lit up.
