Start your NYC adventure off with a relaxing and scenic sightseeing cruise. Your Hop-on Hop-off CitySightseeing Ferry tour of the New York Harbor features unobstructed views of the Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge and much more.

Make sure you hop-off near Times Square (Pier 78 stop) to discover two unique New York attractions: Ripley’s Believe It Or Not and the all-new Gulliver’s Gate.

Back in the real world, things are only getting more interesting! Step inside Ripley’s Believe It or Not to see some of the most extraordinary real artifacts from around the world. Two-headed animals, shrunken heads and massive scrap metal sculptures will amaze and delight you as you roam through 2 full floors of odd exhibits.
