    Great fun and the opportunity for tremendous photos. We loved it!!

    Nothing like a sunset cruise to end your day on a high note! When in NYC, make sure you book yourself a sunset cruise ticket around the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Islands, two must-visit attractions! From Pier 36, you’ll sail towards the Statue of Liberty and be greeted by some of NYC’s famous landmarks, like the Empire State Building, the new Freedom Tower, the Manhattan Bridge, Governor's Island, and more.

    Take your pick from indoor seating with large panoramic windows and outdoor seating with unaltered views: both guaranteeing a visual treat. You’ll then get within 100 feet of the Statue of Liberty, where a commemorative selfie is a must. Move on to Ellis Island and take photos of the famous entry point to NYC with the gorgeous sunset as your backdrop. As you glide down Lower Manhattan’s east and west sides, drink in the views of NYC’s striking skyline!
