The first Hidden Harbor Tour this season will be:
North River Tour - 11 Jun
Hosted by Mr. Passenger Liner - Bill Miller. We begin by passing around the southern tip of Manhattan and the large ferry terminals to Staten Island and Governors Island. We travel north up along the west side of Manhattan passing the Battery & Castle Clinton, then most of Hudson River Park, including historic ships, ferry terminals, fireboat terminals, historic Pier 57, Chelsea Piers, excursion boats, the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum and finally the passenger ship terminals. We then cross over to the New Jersey side passing the historic Hoboken
waterfront, scene of "On The Waterfront", another active shipyard, Morris Canal entrance and finally, as all our tours do, we visit the Statue of Liberty for a moment before returning to Pier 16.

Additional Hidden Harbor Tours including Port Newark/Port Elizabeth
and Brooklyn will be coming in July, August & September

All tours leave from Pier 16 at the South Street Seaport District
at 6:30 p.m. on the large three-deck motor vessel Zephyr
