Queuing to board was not pleasant in the heat but anyone who wanted a top deck seat got one the cruise is not a sell out meaning all seats taken so really pleased we got a top deck view, my fear was we would be below deck and miss the event this didn’t happen.
You can move freely around the boat at any time and will always get a good view
Food was good for buffet food
Beer was plentiful and cold
Cocktails good but a charge for bourbon so beware
Fireworks and position of the cruiser to see them excellent I’d say one of the best seats in Manhattan.
DJ great and a good time had by all
Thanks and highly recommend

The Circle Line July 4th cruise was incredible! The captain made sure we were at prime location for the fireworks. The pre-firework sail was delightful.

Spectacular Fourth of July event! We were right in front of the barges on the water for the fireworks!

The views were spectacular, great place to see the fireworks. The dj was solid.
For the price , the food was straight out of smart and final. Burger was gross, hot dog was edible but packet toppings, catering needed to improve for the price.

The fireworks were amazing. The su.set was breathtaking. I got ao.e really great pictures. I enjoyed the firecracker cocktails and the food. The DJ gave a party vibe and everyone was having fun. The line is long to get on the boat. You will be standing for 30+ minutes.

Very family friendly! Fireworks were outstanding! Food was good although we had to wait in a long line for it. Good dj. Well organized.

They should drop the price to $179 like it used to be. Buffet was so messy with disinterested workers ready to tell you no rather than letting you know while you were on line how many hotbdogs, hamburgers, cupcakes you could get. Long lines for food and drinks, no organization. DJ was bad and didn't play any music during the display. Is it that hard to link with the tv broadcast or the 1010WINS simulcast?

As a native New Yorker, this was my 1st experience watching the Macy's 4th of July Fireworks up close. Doing it on the Circle Line made it that much better. This was an all inclusive program and worth the money which included drinks , food and entertainment. The food was plenty..you did not go hungry..all types of drinks adult and kiddy friendly..can't say enough about the DJ who was awesome and kept the large crowd engaged. The only thing that wasn't so pleasant was standing in Line for over an hour and nowhere for disabled/handicapped to sit. I use a cane and stood in Line for about 3 hrs. I did get there early so I can get a seat outside because of the heat but one security guy kept checking on me to see if I was OK. They also distributed water to all the guest while we we outside waiting to get in.

The Staff were all exceptional. The July 4 fireworks in NYC probably went on for 45 spectacular minutes. Tour ticket included open bar and food. DJ was entertaining with many guests dancing. I met a very nice couple from New Zealand who happen to sit next to us.

Great view of the skyline. Departure was on time. Long lines and wait in the heat. Messy food buffet area and service.
Geoffrey_H, Jul 2024
The cruise was great, the way they managed the the boarding was very well organised, however the food was not so great and they run out later in the evening.
Robert_W, Jul 2024
Always want less lineups. Other than that it gave what it should. Maybe a few less people on board so there’s less lineups for food and drink and ample space for choice viewing spots on deck
John_H, Jul 2024
Didn’t enjoy the long wait to board, but we did enjoy the cruise, the staff, the passengers and the food. One thing…there was a good amount of diesel exhaust, so just know that if you’re allergic. There were tobacco smokers on the outside deck and that smoke was annoying.

The cruise itself was fine. The music was way too loud. Children were holding their ears. It was a lot of money for what I got out of it.

As a native New Yorker, seeing the Macy's fireworks live has always been a dream that I never seem3d to get around to. This year the udea to see the fireworks was suggesyed by a friend who went a couple of years ago and highly recommended it. Although the reviews were not great we decided to give it a go. Thank goodness we did. I love the Circle Line. It is always a go to trip to bring friends who visit. Luckily we were the first in the boat and got seats on the top in rhe back on the cushion seats. The buffet was plentiful and good. Service was wonderful. After someone requested that the DJ play 80's music the boat was rocking. Our boat managed to be in the front so we had a clear view of the barges. What a great view. Breathtaking. The boats were lined up with the back of the boat facing the fireworks so we were lucky that we went to the back to sit. The boat was not full. Obviously everyone went to sit outside on top, but you never felt crowded. There was a lot of room to go inside on both levels if you wanted to escape the heat. It was a memorable 4th and the trip was well worth the cost!

My experience on the circle line for the 4th of July was absolutely amazing thanks to Captain Gabriel and crew for giving me the opportunity to propose to the woman I adore and love PS the DJ was amazing

The fireworks were great and seeing Lady Liberty again was an added bonus! Seeing all the beautiful buildings from a distance was awesome!
Latoya_D, Jul 2023
We had a great time! We were close enough to see the fireworks launched. The food was typical American. The DJ had us getting up and dancing.
Arleen_C, Jul 2023
The tickets were available to print or show on your phone before the event so check in was a breeze. We actually boarded and left the dock earlier than planned so we had more time to enjoy the amazing barbecue and sightseeing on what turned into beautiful day. The DJ was amazing and there was a group of young adults dancing up a storm which really got everyone into a good spirit. The boat was a little understaffed but the food and drinks were plentiful and we had a front row spot for the fireworks display. I will book this cruise again next year!!
Vaneica_M, Jul 2023
The food was average and cold. Staff was friendly My biggest disappointment was another boat from Circle Line got right next to us and blocked our view just as the fireworks started and we had to push back further so I view that would have been perfect was yielded to your other boat. This should not have happened. There was room to pull beside us and they didn’t So disappointed.

Fantastic night celebrating 4th July. Well organised getting people onto the boats. Boats were not overcrowded and there was plenty of room for people to move around. A good party atmosphere from the start. We enjoyed the views all around Manhattan from the Hudson and East river and also the Statue of Liberty. Boat got into a prime position for the fireworks whilst we watch NYC turn from day to night and enjoyed the party on board. Food and drink were included. We had a great night and a fantastic experience.

We were here for my sons 7th birthday….he loved it!! The boat DJ gave my little one a birthday acknowledgment and he was in heaven. The fireworks was the cherry on top.

Para ser un paseo por la bahia y pasarlo bien con una muy buena vista de los fuegos artificiales, estuvo muy bien. Pero se publicaba como buffet, nunca lo fue; solo una fila para distribuir hamburguesas, nada mas. Esto ultimo debe mejorar.
martine_a, Jul 2023
Tout était parfait sauf 1 petit détail .
Le repas pas vraiment de choix et en plus ont mange sur nos genoux ce qui n est pas pratique et le monde sur le bateaux je ne m attendait pas à sa .
Par contre animation et croisière géniale

Hat wirklich Spaß gemacht. Gut organisiert vor Ort. Gute Stimmung auf dem Boot. Kann ich nur weiter empfehlen.
Martine_V, Jul 2023
Het eten was abominabel. Gelukkig was er het vuurwerk. De muziek op de boot stond ook VEEL te luid, het deed gewoon pijn aan de oren.

A animação dos recepcionistas. A organização é a cortesia dos trabalhadores do navio circule line . Aprovado
