This was such a phenomenal experience. The staff were so nice giving us the most closet appointment time to get on the boat . The ride was so much fun . Staff on board was very nice n helpful,the motions of the boat resembling a roller coaster on sea. Music awesome , vibe was just fantastic. Will definitely do it again soon.😀
Such a fun experience. Great time with friends, very funny, and still get a photo op with the Statue of Liberty. Great mix of fun and wholesome.
All 4 of us had a blast. It’s a fairly low cost activity that no one will forget. Everyone I could see in the boat was really enjoying it.
Loved every moment of it the captain was awesome. The crew was awesome. Had so much fun would definitely recommend two families looking to have a little bit of fun
Very fun experience with my teenage daughter. We got soaked which was welcome in the heat, and had great views of the statue of liberty.
It’s fun for all ages
It’s something my family and I chose to do since they’ve visited multiple times in the past and seen all the landmarks up close - this was to experience the views and the speed. You will get wet, employees are nice and have great energy.
They do stop to take pictures of the Statue of Liberty.
I had an awesome time. The beast boat ride is amazing.The best ride i have ever been on to downtown brooklyn views.The views are breathtaking.I am extremely happy and I had so much fun.
I usually the beast speed boat ride is always a thrill great music and views something you should every summer in my opinion
This was FUN AS HELL! Best 30 min boat ride ever . The crew on the boat had good customer service and even went easy on me since I didn’t want to get my hair wet !
Music & vibes were amazing !
So nice ! The staff were amazing welcoming and helpful! They took pictures for us and helped us get on and off.
Wear an extra shirt cause you going to get wet at the end of the trip lol
The staff it’s so nice 👍🫶
It’s a nice activity. But ruined by a line cutter. We arrived an hour early as we had a special kid with us and he really really wanted to sit upfront. we were the first ones on the line & just 5 min before the ride, a guy comes and stands infront of everyone, the boat operator let him cut the line & made him take the first seat.
When I complained he said it’s my boat & I can do whatever I want. First unethical behavior & a cherry on top what a nasty attitude.
If that guy & the operator (who facilitated him ) is reading this, you know who you are. Shame on you!!!
Also let me know how can I submit a formal complaint to the head of the company. Would not want any special parent to go through such experience.

Great experience. The top part of our nyc visit and the views are amazing for the boat. The staff did an amazing job!
Even after watching video's on Tiktok about other people's experience, their vidoes does it no justice. Loads of fun. FYI, all seats are in the splash zone. Already planning on doing it again.
