New York Tours & Sightseeing

New York Harbor Cruises

The area that so many define as New York, Manhattan, is only one of 5 boroughs in the City (Brooklyn, the Bronx, Staten Island and Queens are the other parts of the City that are still part of the city of New York). Manhattan happens to be an island surrounded on all sides by 3 great rivers: the Hudson, Harlem and East Rivers. All that water means that visitors have another option when it comes to New York Sightseeing.

One of the best and most relaxing ways to see Manhattan is from the deck of a ship, cruise vessel or water taxi on a New York Harbor Cruise. In fact, aside from the aerial views afforded by trips to the Empire State Building or Top of the Rock observation deck of from a Helicopter Tour, a Harbor Cruise is one of the most popular ways to get a view of the New York City skyline. We highly recommend including a New York Harbor Cruise in your New York City Vacation package - whether a brief Harbor trip or a luxurious buffet dinner, you'll never for get your New York Harbor Cruise!

Don't forget to bring your camera!
