South Street Seaport Museum

Nice little museum, perfectly located at this old neighborhood, that keeps the history of the original port of the city of alive. The boat is included in the ticket price and is a must see. People on board will gladly answer any questions and will give you a small tour. Great experience if you have never been on this kind of boats before. The rest of the museum will give you an idea of the immigrant experience when they were arriving in the city, but it's better if you visit Ellis Island, so that you get the whole picture.

Beautiful place by the river. It can be chilly to walk around because of it's location so make sure to dress properly. This area was renovated after hurricane Sandy, and you can now enjoy the large sitting area, the beautiful little roads, the bars and restaurants, the designer shops, the relaxing atmosphere when sitting upstairs and enjoying the view of the river, Brooklyn and the bridges of Manhattan.

" Just so you know guys the admission is $12 which includes a tour of the boats." Okay great. Elderly, slow and disabled mom in lobby deciding if she wants a tour of the boats. "Just so you know guys the lobby is included in the price." Eff off dude. Chill out before I make you eat the $12. I was sure they were going to start charging by the minute just for gawking at him. Went in had a nice little tour. But that guy at the register was obnoxious.

This attraction was included in the NYC pass so I didn't want to miss it. Small museum but people still can get a bit of the past (mass immigration) After you can visit the Liverpool ship where a lovely guy was explaining the history of the ship. He was very passionate about it so it was great to listen to him. The volunteers truly love here what they do.
