About this Event

Watch the sun set behind the Statue of Liberty from the open top deck of a modern catamaran.

Golden hour on the Hudson is the best two hours you will spend in New York. As the sun drops behind the skyline, the whole city turns gold, and you are taking it in from the top deck of an ultra-modern 106-foot catamaran with a drink in your hand.

This is a 2-hour guided sunset cruise out of Midtown Manhattan. A live guide walks you through every landmark while relaxing music plays and the full bar stays open. You get a 360-degree unobstructed view of the most famous skyline on earth, and the boat pauses right in front of the Statue of Liberty so you get the photo everyone wants.

What you will see:

• The Statue of Liberty, with a stop for the perfect picture

• One World Trade Center and Lower Manhattan

• Ellis Island and Governors Island

• The Brooklyn Bridge

• The Empire State Building

• Hudson Yards, Little Island, and Battery Park

• South Street Seaport and the United Nations

What's included:

• 2-hour narrated cruise with a live tour guide

• Open-air top deck plus a climate-controlled cabin with oversized windows

• Full bar and snacks available onboard

• Free WiFi and clean, modern restrooms

• Free multi-route shuttle to and from the pier across Manhattan

• Wheelchair and stroller accessible

Why book this one: Most 2-hour sunset cruises in New York run $45 to over $100, and the cheaper ones cut you down to 60 or 90 minutes with no guide. This is a full two hours, with live commentary, starting at $38. It is the most boat for your money on the Hudson.

Getting there: Departs from Pier 78 at W 38th St and 12th Ave in Midtown, right on the Hudson River. Free shuttles run to and from the pier throughout Manhattan, so you do not have to deal with parking.

Peace of mind: Free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. If we have to cancel for weather, you get a full refund or a reschedule.

Pick your date and time above. Sunset seats fill fast in summer, so book early. Bring a light jacket, it is cooler out on the water.
