Circle Line Sightseeing Cruises

• Sit back, relax and enjoy breathtaking views while award-winning tour guides narrate every detail along your route (for all cruises except the scenic Statue at Sunset cruise). Get your camera ready because you'll be yards away from some of the best selfies and photos of your life.
• Landmarks Cruise (narrated): See NYC landmarks, the Statue of Liberty, and amazing views of NYC in 90 minutes. Travel down the Hudson River, gliding by the towering One World Trade Center and past Ellis Island until you are just feet away from the Statue of Liberty. Experience breathtaking views of lower Manhattan before quietly slipping under the Brooklyn, Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges for a short journey up the East River before returning to Pier 83 in midtown Manhattan. (Note: Landmarks Cruise is available only with New York CityPASS tickets, not C3 or C-All tickets.)
• Liberty Midtown Cruise (narrated): See the Statue of Liberty plus amazing views of NYC on this 1-hour cruise – the fastest way to see Lady Liberty from midtown Manhattan. Glide down the Hudson River passing the colossal Hudson Yards, the towering One World Trade Center, and the inspiring High Line Park, before passing the spectacular tip of southern Manhattan and ultimately cruising only a few feet away from the magnificent Statue of Liberty.
• Liberty Midtown Express (narrated): See the Statue of Liberty in a New York minute! If you only have time for one item on your New York City sightseeing bucket list, make it the Statue of Liberty. This 50-minute sightseeing cruise is the easiest and fastest way to get up close to the iconic Statue of Liberty and back from downtown NYC.
• Statue at Sunset (scenic): Sail away on New York’s newest after-hours cruise giving locals and tourists alike the most up-close view of Lady Liberty in front of the most breathtaking and colorful sunsets in the world. This 90-minute cruise is the only one in the Circle Line line-up that focuses not on a narrated tour but instead on good music, good drinks, and good vibes on our smaller private vessels.
