Cruise in Style and See New York City’s Waterfalls

edited by Nan Frient

Circle Line Sightseeing Cruises is offering a waterfall-inspired tour for art aficionados seeking a private look at Olfaur Eliasson's New York City Waterfalls exhibit. Available from mid-July through mid-October, Circle Line Sightseeing Cruises will provide the city's closest views of this art experience.

The $50,000 Waterfalls Package* will offer the following:

· Champagne: Dom Perignon and Karl Lagerfeld's vintage 1998 "A Bottle Named Desire."

· Chocolate: Knipschildt's La Madeline au Truffe, recognized by Forbes Magazine as the most expensive chocolate in the world.

· Diamonds: Tiffany Jazz™ drop earrings.

· Dinner for Two: Six-course meal from Chef Daniel Boulud's Feast & Fêtes catering.

· Presidential Suite: A night in one of New York City's most luxurious presidential suites (guest preferences to be discussed at time of booking).

"All of our daily 2-3 hour cruises are already poised to provide unfettered access to the waterfalls, but that wasn't enough," said Circle Line Sightseeing Cruises Vice President and General Manager Andreas Sappok. "We had to do something that would be commensurate with this once-in-a-lifetime "WOW" experience. Our $50,000 private cruise offers more than a look at four waterfalls – it provides gold-plated front row seats to an iconic piece of New York history."

As an alternative to the $50,000 cruise, Circle Line Sightseeing Cruises is offering a $10,000 private cruise package that includes one night in the Presidential Suite at Westin New York Times and dinner for two at Le Bernadin.
