4.New York Harbor Brunch Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 106 reviews · 2 hours 45 minutes (approx.) · from $139

Sail from Pier 62 on a classic yacht for about 2 hours 45 minutes while enjoying a family-style and buffet brunch. You’ll pass the UN, Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty, and three major bridges, with indoor seating and one complimentary beverage included.

“The cruise was enjoyable but food standard has definitely deteriorated. The bagels, croissants were dry and crusty. There is no variety for the price you pay. The menu needs revising and more brunch choices should everyone added to the 2nd course. We left feeling cheated”
