Step aboard the teak decks of elegant 1920s style yachts, Manhattan or Manhattan II, and enjoy a 2.75 hour cruise while learning about NYC's architectural landmarks from the water. The "Around Manhattan" tour narration, provided by members of the American Institute of Architects’ (AIA) NYC chapter, is general enough for visitors yet detailed enough for the locals.
Experience a comfortable and unique tour through the Hudson, East, and Harlem Rivers from a glassed-in observatory cabin, which has sliding windows for a fresh breeze, or wander to an open bow for more unobstructed views of the surrounding sites. On this cruise, guests will circumnavigate the island of Manhattan, passing under all 18 bridges, while taking in monuments, architecture, parks and infrastructure with narration throughout the cruise.
Important note: select departures on Friday afternoons will focus on Climate Change in and around New York City. Please call the operator directly for questions on the tour theme.

The Manhattan Architecture Boat Tour was a highlight of our trip! Seeing the entire city from the water gave a whole new perspective on New York’s skyline and history. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable, pointing out architectural details and sharing fascinating stories about each landmark. The boat was comfortable and spacious, with both indoor seating and an open outdoor deck perfect for photos. The crew was attentive and welcoming.

This is an amazing tour completely around the island of Manhattan. The tour guide is extremely knowledgeable and shares lots of great and interesting information. Highly recommend for those wanting to see and learn about the incredible architecture of the area. Also includes going very near Ellis Island and the statue of liberty. Beautiful boat and extremely comfortable setting. A wonderful 3 hours.

This was THE best thing we did during our trip. If you like architecture and want to see and hear about NYC this is a must! We saw so many things we would never have seen otherwise. Beautiful boat and the staff was amazing. Doug did the narration for the tour and he was really great.

Our tour was fantastic. It's a wonderful way to see Manhattan from a unique angle - sea level. Our guide, Andrew, was extremely knowledgeable. We learned the history, the fun facts, and the hard facts about how Manhattan was developed and who developed it. The boat was beautiful; with all the gorgeous wood rails and windowsills. The inside sitting area pleasant and comfortable. The bow of the ship was big enough for all the passengers who wanted to feel the wind in their hair to carve out a comfy spot for themselves. The crew and the services were second to none. Maggie took great care of us in the most genuine manner. In every way, this was a highlight of our trip to NYC.

We did the architecture tour with Classic Harbor Lines, it was fantastic. To circumnavigate Manhattan was so interesting, and all the more so because of the fascinating commentary by Doug the architect. It inspired me to go and look at many of the buildings on land the next day. I highly recommend this tour.

The architecture tour was excellent; our guide was very knowledgeable and shared interesting information during the tour around the island of Manhattan. We learned about the buildings, the various neighborhoods within Manhattan and the history of the area. The boat itself was very nice, a classic boat, and even with a bit of rough water the ride was smooth. There is indoor seating to keep warm if it is a cool day, but the best views/photo ops are definitely outside. You get a great view of the Statue of Liberty too. A great way to see the beautiful New York skyline and learn a bit more about how it came to be.

Excellent architectural tour around Manhattan with an experienced guide. The best way to see the whole island. You will never truly appreciate the island without seeing it from the water. Comfortable boat, great crew and a fantastic guide.
