Fantastic 5.0
I took this Statue of Liberty Express Cruise today in New York, and honestly, it turned out to be a great decision. Initially, I was confused between this and the free Staten Island Ferry, but after watching a few YouTube videos, I realized this cruise would offer much better and closer views of the Statue of Liberty—and it absolutely did. I paid around $25, which I feel is totally worth it. Since I traveled on a weekday afternoon, the ferry was surprisingly less crowded, which gave me plenty of space and time to click photos without any rush. The cruise is very well maintained and has multiple seating options. There’s an open top deck with amazing skyline views, plus indoor decks for people who want to stay warm during colder weather. The guide was also excellent—very funny, informative, and explained New York’s skyline and nearby landmarks really well. The entire trip lasted around 45–50 minutes. Comfortable, scenic, and definitely value for money.

We were blessed with good weather and were able to enjoy the night view from the second-floor deck. However, it was very cold, so I recommend bringing warm clothing! We also got close to the Statue of Liberty and took some great photos.

It was really, really cold, but the sunset was so beautiful. I recommend the sunset time. If you don't like the cold, travel between April and October. Overall, I am satisfied with the value for the price. Many places were closed on Christmas Day, so there wasn't much to do, but thanks to the cruise, I was able to finish the day well. Thank you. 😊

We were able to visit almost all the tourist spots in New York! The food was amazing as well. I even got a tumbler souvenir shaped like the Statue of Liberty. We also saw Bridge 19, which opens for trains to pass and closes for boats or cruises.
