pier was easy to find, and boarding was simple and fuss free. Recommend if you have about 1-2 hours to see the sky line of NYC and the famous Statue of Liberty.

Thank you very much! The sweet cookies and hot chocolate were so New York-like and delicious. The Christmas lights were amazing! Thank you for taking me to places I couldn't go to on my own. The guide was cheerful, humorous and kind. I'm glad I came all the way from Japan to participate.
