This yacht tour is the perfect way to top off your trip to NYC - My spouse and I signed up for the 1.5-hour sightseeing tour aboard America 2.0 on a Sunday afternoon in mid-September. Finding the pier was easy as was checking in. We lucked out in that the yacht tour wasn't crowded, so there was plenty of space and room to move around once we were permitted to do so. Ray, Sam, Sandy, and Colin were a very competent crew, and they were quick to answer any questions we had, offering additional, interesting information as we passed by landmarks along the Hudson River. The view of the NYC skyline from this perspective and sailing by the Statue of Liberty were definitely highlights. It was a spectacular, relaxing afternoon to spend on a boat while giving our feet a break from all the walking we did on previous days. We highly recommend adding this experience to your to-do's when visiting NYC.

Everybody blow! - À near perfect day, hot and sunny. Could have done with a little more wind. The views were amazing. Wine and soft drinks provided. River was busy, which was great. The perfect way to spend a couple of hours in New York.

Great sailing cruise of the bay and the statue of liberty! - Our trip was so fun - we had great wind for sailing. The team was incredible! They took care of us, sailed, were bartenders, photographers, historians, etc. Go if you want a relaxed, friendly, sail to see the "green lady". Enjoyed!
