Celebrate New Year’s Eve on a New York Harbor cruise with a dinner buffet, premium open bar, live DJ, and midnight champagne toast.
About this tour
Welcome the new year on the water, with New York Harbor glowing around you and a midnight champagne toast in hand. This New York City New Year’s Eve fireworks cruise pairs a lively party atmosphere with views of the city’s waterfront.
Board at 8:30 PM and set sail at 9:00 PM aboard a multi-level party yacht. Start the evening with a dinner buffet, then enjoy three hours of premium open bar and live DJ entertainment as the celebration builds. The buffet is served early, so this is a nightlife-themed cruise rather than a long, seated dinner. At midnight, raise a complimentary champagne toast and watch for the annual fireworks display near the Statue of Liberty. The cruise returns at 1:00 AM.
New York City New Year’s Eve fireworks cruise guests must be 21 or older and bring valid photo ID. Seating is first come, first served, and fireworks views can vary by vessel and weather; the cruise operates rain or shine. Meet at 2430 FDR Drive and look for the blue and yellow ENJOY CRUISES flag. Book your place aboard and celebrate the countdown on the harbor.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 2.65 from 92 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in New York City
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 4.2.
