From Pier 11 to IKEA, sit on the right side to see the Statue of Liberty. Come before departure time as the line is usually long on weekends and they allow a limited number of ppl on board
If you're easily seasick this tiny boat will knock you around. Take the 4/5/6 to Borough Hall and then the nearby shuttle to IKEA plaza . Will run you the same time or shorter for the same price.
Awesome way to get out on the water & remind yourself of how lucky you are to be in NYC! Plus...free on the weekends?! Amazing.
The cheapest way to get the best views of downtown Manhattan, Brooklyn and the New York harbor .
If the captain/security guard thinks your merch is too large, then you're not allowed on. It's completely dependent upon the captain. IKEA should adopt the rule 'If you can carry it, you can ride.'
On a nice day, take the water taxi from Pier 11 to Ikea, you'll have a great view of the city and statue of liberty especially at sunset . Then eat some swedish meatballs and lingonberry juice at Ikea!
Busy on the weekends, so come early! Very fast and efficient way to get to Red Hook.
For a great view of Manhattan and Brooklyn and a fun boating trip, take the IKEA ferry from Pier 11 for $5 (redeemable as a coupon @ IKEA and if you spend ~$10/person, free trip back!)!
The Ikea ferry from Wall Street to Red Hook is free on the weekends and only $5 Mon-Fri.
For the free ferry ride, come at least 20 minutes early or you'll have to wait 30+ minutes for the next ferry .
If you take the water taxi to ikea on a weekday, the trip is $5 each way... Unless you spend $10 at the store. Then you ride for free!
If you ride on the top deck, sit at the back so you can have a better view of New York harbor
On weekends, there is a ferry that comes every 20 minutes . Ignore the signs that sat every 4
So many tourists stuff the boat, making a long wait . I see the appeal but I just want to buy my Omar and Komolement and get outta Dodge.
This is good stuff to do if you have tourists visiting nyc, take the Ikea ferry at Pier 11 and you'll get a view of this amazing island we leave on
