Fall Foliage Hot Tub Boat Tour Details
If you’re a dedicated leaf peeper, then you already know how backed up the roads can get near the prime viewing areas. Instead, leave the traffic jams behind you as you board See the City’s fall foliage brunch cruise in NYC.
Meet the Crew
Although you’ll be having the time of your life, our dedicated crew will be focused on keeping you safe. You can relax in style as our captain and deckhands take you past major landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty. You’ll have more than a captain at the helm of the mini yacht for your day cruise too. That’s because we only hire the best of the best, so your captain will be a United States Coast Guard Master Captain!
Deckhands are also on board to make sure you have everything you need. Whether you forgot your towel in the changing room, or you’ve got a question about the scenery, be sure to ask a deckhand for assistance.
Additionally, you’ll enjoy having your boat tour narrated by a master storyteller. This is another task our captain gladly takes on, and they’ll be able to tell you historical tidbits related to New York City. Alternatively, if you’d rather just relax and talk amongst yourselves, our captain will happily stow their tales for another day.

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.
