Circle Line Downtown Announces 2007 Schedule for ZEPHYR One-Hour Narrated Harbor Cruise


New York, New York – What Moves You. It’s not a question. It’s a statement. Circle Line Downtown’s ZEPHYR is what moves you—along the New York Harbor, and deep within, as each little moment is amplified by beautiful surroundings.

The moment you board ZEPHYR, the experience begins—beautiful skylines act as the perfect backdrop for photos, the cool harbor breeze refreshes and inspires, and the gradual, gliding movement delicately states that you’re going somewhere.

Your child’s first glimpse at the wonderment of Lady Liberty standing majestically in the harbor. Your wife’s astonishment when she learns that cows (yes, cows!) once crossed the Buttermilk Channel to get to Governors Island. Your boyfriend’s gaze at you while the fiery sunset engulfs the Manhattan skyline. And your very own chance to actually view the belly of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Rain or shine, ZEPHYR promises moving experiences with great views. ZEPHYR glides by a plethora of historic sites in the New York Harbor while our engaging tour guides promise to astonish the most astute history buff with their sightseeing trivia. On-board snacks and beverages also ensure your comfort and enjoyment. With three decks, two climate controlled decks and one outdoor deck, ZEPHYR offers city sights with panoramic views no matter what the weather brings. Invite your friends and family, and experience how ZEPHYR will move you.
