New York Water Taxi
Instead of calling a taxi on the street, head on down to the docks and hail a New York Water Taxi. It is an environmentally friendly way to see the city.
The Gateway to America Harbor Tour, over the course of 75 minutes, will show you some of the most noteable landmarks that New York has to offer, including the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Brooklyn and Verrazano Bridges, Fort Wadsworth, and Castle Clinton, all while enjoying the beautiful New York Harbor! You will also learn about the military forts that defended the city in the American Revolution and the War of 1812. Kathleen Turner, David Rockefeller Jr. and NPS rangers will narrate your tour as you explore the magnificent history and natural splendor of New York Harbor.
