Your Journey
5 Iconic Stops – 1 incredible tour
One World Trade Center
Start with NYC’s tallest landmark
As you settle into the warm water, you’ll cruise out into New York Harbor with One World Trade Center rising in front of you. From the water, you get a full, unobstructed view of the Downtown Manhattan skyline.
Photo Tip: Turn back toward the city and frame the full skyline with One World Trade Center centered in your shot.
Skim past the heart of the Financial District
Glide past the Financial District skyline
Next you’ll shoot up the East River, passing the bright orange Staten Island ferries and the buzzing Wall Street Heliport. This is where you really feel the movement of New York Harbor all around you – ferries, barges, tour boats and helicopters.
Photo Tip: Watch for ferries crossing the channel and helicopters overhead for those classic “only in New York” action shots.
Brooklyn Bridge
Ride beneath one of the world’s most famous bridges
Glide beneath the Brooklyn Bridge and take in sweeping views of both Manhattan and Brooklyn. Your guide will give you time to slow down, soak in the arches, and capture the iconic bridge-and-skyline perspective from water level.
Photo Tip: Face back toward Manhattan and position the bridge off to one side of the frame for a dramatic wide shot.
Governors Island & Verrazzano View
Cruise the Brooklyn shoreline with harbor panoramas
From the bridge you’ll follow the Brooklyn shoreline past Governors Island. On a clear day you’ll spot the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge in the distance, marking the opening of New York Harbor out to the Atlantic Ocean.
Photo Tip: Look south for a wide, cinematic view that captures the harbor, Governors Island and the Verrazzano all in one shot.
Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island
Circle Lady Liberty and finish with a skyline finale
To cap off the tour, you’ll ride straight across one of the busiest natural harbors in the world to get up close to the Statue of Liberty. After a slow loop around Liberty Island, you’ll pass Ellis Island and line up your final photos with the Manhattan skyline behind you.
Photo Tip: Use burst mode as you circle the statue so you can pick the perfect frame with both Lady Liberty and the skyline in the background.
