I’m not a comic book fan, but I was looking for something different to do in New York with 2 teenage boys. They both thought a comic book tour would be fun, and they definitely enjoyed it. Luke was a well-informed, entertaining guide, and I learned a lot about movie locations and the history of various superheroes that made the tour enjoyable for me, too.

Great narration. The boat was comfortable inside and out. Views were great from all over. Staff was friendly. we felt safe. The speed was good. No problems experienced at all.

Luke was superb. Hugely knowledgable and highly entertaining on all things superheroes as well as New York City.

Great guide, sights were beautiful. Excellent experience for me and my sons.

Was very enjoyable. Not the your usual tourist trap.
