I used the ferry to get myself and my bicycle from Weehawken NJ to Pier 79, finding it easy to use (self-service ticket terminal on the pier in Weehawken that takes credit cards). Ferries were quick and clean, a great alternative to driving into Manhattan for a day trip.

This is a must do for 1 time, expensive for everyday. Quick and easy to get to NYC.

This was a quick way to get back and forth to the city but I thought it was expensive. For a family of 4, it cost us $66. We did save $3 on each child ticket on the return trip home from the NY side. This is not offered at the hotel. They run late so we were able to... More

the app for the iphone makes it so easy to use. purchase tickets see where the bus is. OhMeGosh it was so easy to navigate. The ride from the ferry landing to the 9/11 memorial was a bit long. but traffic in the city. i would rather take the ferry/bus than try and navigate the city myself.

Prices go up and service keeps going down. Very convenient BUT outsourced parking requires standing on 2 lines to buy tickets. Window agents are not particularly helpful. The cost is VERY HIGH for value

Pay attention to time table and bus availability, It changes depending on the day, holiday and during the time
