50-Minute NYC Statue of Liberty Scenic Cruise

A 50-minute sightseeing boat cruise around the Statue of Liberty in New York, with a licensed guide and views of the city skyline.

This 50-minute sightseeing cruise circles the Statue of Liberty and passes One World Trade Center, Hudson Yards, Chelsea Piers, Little Island Park and Ellis Island. The boat pauses in front of the statue so passengers can take photographs. A licensed tour guide leads the trip on board.

The boats are modern and have both indoor and outdoor viewing areas, so passengers can choose between a sheltered seat and the open air. The cruise is operated by a New York transportation company and covers the statue and several skyline landmarks in one short outing.

It suits visitors with a limited schedule who want an overview of the statue and the skyline without committing a full day to the water.
