Review of Statue Cruises

I had very positive experience with Statue Cruises...

I had very positive experience with Statue Cruises. After exiting the subway, though a street agent was advertising the cruise, learning I have an online ticket, pointed me to the entry point. I was entered into "Reserved" ticket line according to the online ticket I purchased. Up ahead, another person scanned my ticket and then security checking was very smooth and pleasant for me. Then we boarded on the boat for Liberty Island. I didn't bother having AC in the boat because once it started to sail, nice breeze soothed us in the hot summer. Ferry timings are posted at the entry to/exit from the ferry. You just have to look around to find that. In fact, there is one every 20 minutes, which is great. After our visit of Liberty Island, we went to Ellis Island, another pleasant and smooth boat ride. Finally, we came to Battery Park, New York. I would recommend a friend to take this tour with Statue Cruises.
FYI, I always find the street agents a little obnoxious and 'engaging' when I use a train to subways near battery park. But it's not that bad, just tell them you are not interested, they should leave you alone. Those people are trying to cut some commission by finding customers.
