To get to Pier 83, I took the M43 bus from Times Square to the last stop. I walked back, but it's quite a distance. You can board the cruise ship by simply showing the QR code you booked in advance with Klook. So convenient! There's only a baggage check when boarding. I chose the 90-minute cruise, and there was plenty of time to photograph the Statue of Liberty, which I really wanted to see. I recommend sitting on the left side facing the direction of travel. You can enjoy views of Hudson Yards, the World Trade Center, Brooklyn Bridge, and Lower Manhattan. I went on a hot summer day, but it felt a bit chilly with the wind, so a jacket would be good. If you install the Circle Line app, you can listen to a Japanese guide, so don't forget your earphones. I only had two days in New York, so I was glad I got to do some sightseeing.
