Here are some previous tour reviews:
"This was fantastic! Crew were very good, great views over New York and bar has an excellent choice of drinks!!"
"Since this is a tall ship, it requires a higher turning radius and therefore does not take you very close to the Statue of Liberty. Other fast/small boats do take you more closer to the SoL. The ship moves slowly, so you have more time to click photos, see the Statue.
Moreover, the crew was good and supportive. Worth taking the tour."
"Crew were really fun and the trip was great. Can't fault it."
