South Street Seaport-turer

Jeg tok dette Statue of Liberty Express Cruise i New York i dag, og ærlig talt viste det seg å være en flott avgjørelse. Først var jeg usikker på om jeg skulle velge dette eller den gratis Staten Island Ferry, men etter å ha sett noen YouTube-videoer, innså jeg at dette cruiset ville gi mye bedre og nærmere utsikt til Frihetsgudinnen – og det gjorde det absolutt. Jeg betalte rundt 25 dollar, noe jeg synes er absolutt verdt det. Siden jeg reiste en ukedag ettermiddag, var fergen overraskende lite folksom, noe som ga meg god plass og tid til å ta bilder uten stress. Cruiset er veldig godt vedlikeholdt og har flere sitteplasser. Det er et åpent toppdekk med fantastisk utsikt over byens silhuett, pluss innendørs dekk for folk som ønsker å holde seg varme i kaldere vær. Guiden var også utmerket – veldig morsom, informativ og forklarte New Yorks silhuett og nærliggende landemerker veldig bra. Hele turen varte rundt 45–50 minutter. Komfortabelt, naturskjønt og definitivt verdt pengene.

Enkel ombordstigning! De fleste gikk ut på det åpne dekket, men jeg foretrakk det avec-klimatiserte dekket. Trengte ikke å løse inn billetter, Klook QR-kode var alt de trengte. Guiden gikk rundt med mikrofon, men det var knapt mulig å høre ham.

The Circle Line Harbor Lights Cruise is widely regarded as one of the best sightseeing experiences in New York City because of its impeccable timing: departing at dusk, it lets you watch the Manhattan skyline transform from a warm golden hour into a sparkling sea of illuminated skyscrapers. Over two relaxed hours, the boat glides down the Hudson, passes within close range of an illuminated Statue of Liberty for prime photo stops, and cruises under the lit-up Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Williamsburg bridges, all accompanied by engaging, knowledgeable live commentary from local guides. While popular sailings can feel crowded—making it smart to arrive 45 minutes early to grab an outdoor seat on the starboard (right) side—the stunning panoramic views and climate-controlled lower decks make it well worth the ticket for both first-timers and return visitors.

This was an awesome experience. Had a great time with tour guide Nick. He was very knowledgeable, witty, and kind. He took pictures of us along the way. Wish we did 2 hours instead of 1. It went by so quickly. Definitely recommend this if it’s your first time to New York and want to relax, enjoy the views and also learn some history!

Our JAL flight arriving in New York from Haneda was delayed by about 3 hours, so we had to cancel our originally planned Top of the Rock tour. We booked this tour very last minute instead. It was our first time in New York, but we were able to get a great overview of the city's scenery. We were able to make great use of the 30,000 yen in points we got at Klook's Harajuku event this time. Thank you so much, Chieru-san and Ryukru-san.

Nina our tour guide is very knowledgeable & pleasant. She tells us strategies on where to take pictures with a little bit of trivia

The New York City Landmarks and Iconic Sights Tour is an exceptional, well-paced introduction to the city, elevated significantly by guide Tony, whose deep local knowledge, sharp wit, and engaging storytelling bring every corner of the Big Apple to life. The itinerary hits all the must-see highlights—including Grand Central Terminal, Wall Street, the 9/11 Memorial, Rockefeller Center, and views of the Statue of Liberty—without feeling rushed or overwhelming. Tony's seamless navigation, attentiveness, and knack for sharing fascinating NYC trivia make the entire experience smooth, entertaining, and highly memorable for both first-timers and returning visitors alike.

Everything went smoothly, and we learned a lot about New York’s history and landmarks. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting New York, especially if it’s your first time in the city. 5star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐to Susan the tour guide and the driver.
