    Fall foliage tours are a major draw to the NYC area. Whether you live here or are planning a trip, there is really nothing else quite like it on earth. Vibrant colors await you around every corner in this explosive send off before the trees go dormant for another winter season. What’s the most stunning way to catch the leaves at their best? On a Hudson River fall foliage cruise! Rather than driving to the most notable places in NYC, you can sit back, relax, and be amazed at the red, orange, and yellow leaves.

Seeing the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island is always a fun experience, but did you know that you could make it even better? Rather than joining hordes of tourists, you can go on a private hot tub boat tour of the Statue of Liberty! This unique NYC sightseeing opportunity will put you in the lap of luxury. Plus, you’ll get to take a cruise across New York Harbor, including the Hudson River. 

Picture yourself immersed in the crystal-clear bubbles. You’ll have a relaxing yet exhilarating time as the boat cruises past some of NYC’s most iconic landmarks. Even better, you’ll get to see each landmark from a completely unique perspective. Lots of people have ridden on a ferry, but you’ll join an exclusive, small list of those who have witnessed the best of NYC while hanging out in a variable temperature hot tub!

Here's What Our Guests Have to Say

Fun Group Activity

As we were leaving the hot tub boat, my friends and I were already talking about when we could make time to go again. This was a fabulous time - we listened to music, had a glass of wine, looked at the sites of the city all while staying warm in the hot tub in this great tub boat experience. I arranged this activity for myself and 4 of my girlfriends just for fun because we don't get to see one another often enough. This was absolutely magical and we took a million photos which all came out so breathtaking with the city all around us and the view of the water. I highly recommend this boat trip. We all loved it.

Incredible City Views

Would highly recommend! The staff was incredible and got to see amazing city views which makes for great pictures. Super fun for celebrating with a group of friends, they have music playing and its BYOB!

Wonderful Experience

he hot tub boat around Manhattan was one of the most wonderful things I've done. I highly recommend for a special occasion. The water temperature is perfect to hang out in for 90 mins in the cold without it getting too hot to handle. You will be up close to the statue of liberty and right under the Brooklyn Bridge. It's definitely a NYC highlight and I hope to do it again some day!

It Was So Fun!

“I’ve sailed with Sea the City on their Hot Tub boats twice now (both on private tours with both tubs reserved, up to 20 people total), and the staff has been kind, understanding, fun, and easy. The first time was in Spring 2021, and the second time was recently in Spring 2023. They are thorough when it comes to a brief and safety rundown at the beginning of the tour, and for the rest of the evening, are completely on top of service when it comes to making sure the coolers are full of drinks, picking up empties, taking group pictures, etc. On this most recent reservation, I had indicated that my group was celebrating a special event, which was the Eurovision Final happening the following day. The staff actually put “Eurovision 2023” on a rainbow light board and took our picture with it. It was so fun and everyone was so surprise in the best way possible.
