Overall excellent tour. Departed on time. Viewing of all the landmarks and bridges was great and timely. Slowed down near the Statue of Liberty for viewing and pictures. I do wish the tour guide was more clear and louder. We could not hear most of the tour. Snacks and drinks well overpriced. Pictures taken before entering the cruise was great, although they offer to buy both pictures for $35 and they are the same exact pose with different backgrounds which made very little sense. They should after two different poses. But the memory keep sake is nice. Would recommend!

Great tour!
We are visiting New York from Atlanta, GA.
I love a boat ride and even better when the staff are exceptionally nice and make your experience joyful. All staff were friendly from the ticket booth, to the knowledgeable guide, to the photo staff, and the very welcoming and professional bartender. Tickets were a great price to me and the e experienced everything we wanted to on a nice ride on the water on a beautiful sunny Thursday!
Will use circle line again for my next visit with family.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
