To celebrate New York City's groundbreaking Waterfalls installation, Hilton Family hotels are providing travelers an up-close view of the innovative art exhibit with a sightseeing cruise down the East River. Ranging from 90 to 120 feet tall, the four electrically-powered Waterfalls are strategically placed along the East River at Governors Island, Manhattan's Pier 35, the Brooklyn Bridge and between Brooklyn's Piers 4 and 5.

The package is available at Hilton New York, Waldorf Astoria and Millenium Hilton, and it includes spacious accommodations for two and tickets for a one-hour cruise with audio narration. The boat tour offers panoramic views of the man-made Waterfalls, created by renowned artist Olafur Eliasson and commissioned by the Public Art Fund. The Waterfalls exhibit operates seven days a week from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM and is lit after sunset.

All four New York City Waterfalls are visible from the South Street Seaport so travelers can view the works of art from land as well. Guests will receive a South Street Seaport gift bag, which includes one coupon booklet filled with discounts to shop, dine and explore the historic neighborhood. Guests are also encouraged to dine along the water's edge at Harbour Lights Restaurant, where they will receive a complimentary glass of wine or dessert with each entree purchase.
