New Jersey has the best of both worlds – we’re not nearly as packed as New York City, but we’re not far from it and have some amazing views of the skyline. There’s no better way to experience those views than by a trip on the open water, and one lunch cruise in New Jersey is the perfect one-of-a-kind adventure. The Spirit of New Jersey, a modern river cruise, sets off from Weehawken and takes guests around the skyline, with some of the most famous views in the world. Organized by Viator, this lunch cruise contains a delicious buffet meal, music, and activities. This two-hour experience starts at $109, and is offered most Saturdays as well as select other days. All aboard for the best way to see New York without ever leaving New Jersey!
