The view of the Statue of Liberty was amazing!

What can I say… this was such an experience!!! I went with my husband as an early birthday gift to me. What better way to see NY than being in a hot tub while doing so? The water was nice and warm—it was windy on the harbor, but not too bad. The view of the Statue of Liberty was amazing! The staff was super nice and helpful, and overall the ride was perfect! I would do this again 10x!!!

This experience was beyond our expectations!

This experience was beyond our expectations! I booked the hot tub boat tour for my husband's birthday (we set sail at sunset so we got beautiful sunset and nighttime views of the city all lit up) and it was every bit the unique experience I thought it would be. Plus the staff were super helpful and friendly, making this an all around excellent experience!

This Entire Experience Was Absolutely Amazing

This entire experience was absolutely amazing! I surprised my husband with this hot tub boat tour for his 40th birthday and it was above & beyond my expectations. The crew was very friendly, accommodating & knowledgeable; they each made the experience that much better! The views (need I say more) are just so gorgeous and being on the open water in a hot tub in the middle of winter is simply heaven! My husband's 40th birthday surprise was an experience that we will be talking about for the next 40+ years! If your looking for something special & different to do then book the hot tub boat tour, you will NOT regret it!!! We will definitely be back!

Amazing Birthday Celebration

Went with a bunch of friends to celebrate my birthday and we had THE MOST AMAZING time. We did the full 2.5 hour all around Manhattan jet ski tour. Tom was our guide and he did a fantastic job showing us around, taking great pics and all around creating a great experience for us. The whole staff was kind, awesome and just all around good vibes from start to finish. The tour itself was phenomenal. We saw everything. The bridges, the Hudson/Harlem and East rivers and finished off by the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. The whole process went very smoothly and we will definitely be going back again soon. I can’t recommend these guys enough!

Additionally, our various crew members make sure your jet ski is in high-quality condition. It is always our intention to deliver a smooth ride. If you notice anything odd about your jet ski, however, please immediately bring it to your tour leader’s attention.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this suitable for first-time riders?

Absolutely! We provide basic instructions, along with a safety tutorial. Also, a trained professional will watch over you as you ride.

Is it cold on the water?

It can be, yes, particularly if you book your ride in the spring or fall. However, we provide a dry suit, which should make you much more comfortable. 

Do we need prior experience?

Prior experience is not necessary. We’ll teach you everything you need to know to get started, and we’ll also provide life vests.
