Sight seeing gone wrong with cold drama - The liberty cruise did not show up , left us out in the cold of NewYork with no sympathy. It had no plans to send a replacement cruise. We ended up working out something with the rep on ground to go on a cruise with a total different line 1hr later. This was our Valentine’s trip and it was ruined. Messed up the whole day. Treated like Leftovers waiting for hand me downs.

Disappointing experience - The tour was scheduled for 4:30pm, and although I arrived at that time, they would not let me on the boat.

Awful. - Explained we were driving from 6 hours away and experiencing storms therefore we wouldn’t make it unless we drove over the speed limit and crashed the car. They couldn’t care less and wouldn’t reschedule me to the next slot 2 hours later when I gave the whole days notice. Really unhelpful. Wasn’t even asking for a refund just to change it ever so slightly. Really bad experience and wasted my money completely.
