| The boat itself was lovely and classic, but the added touches of flowers, the runner down the center of floor and the throw pillows added to the overall feel of comfy sophistication. Captain was very personable and relaxed, which again added to that
welcoming, comfy air. Servers were friendly and always ready to fulfill requests. This was a charming way to explore the harbor of NYC. Especially appreciated the small number of people; you actually felt like a guest on someone's yacht rather than just another crowded body on board. Food was yummy! Might increase the amount of fruit (although this time of year it gets pricey. Perhaps you can instead increase the amount of nuts????) and add another plate of tea sandwiches for a second serving---just a suggestion.
Great job! I have told many folk about our adventure and highly recommended it!

| Cruise, boat and crew were excellent. The weather was good and commentary was a useful guide to our surroundings, though a little loud inside for the laid back lounge. The small delicate sandwiches, crackers, farmhouse cheese, nuts and cranberries were fitting for an afternoon tea, along with the cake, tea (the water is hot - there is an electric kettle) and a glass of wine. The size of the boat and only 20 to 25 guests made it easy to move around inside and out. A nice relaxing afternoon. |

| My wife, daughter, and son-in-law, and i spent a 4 day week-end in New York. It rained most of the afternoon but that didn't have any impact on the cruise. There were only 12 people total, so we had a lot of food and attention. It exceded expectation in every way, and we had a great time with the other passengers. The crew couldn't have been any better.
Thanks.

| I've been on one of the "other" harbour tours but this time in NYC, I wanted to do something special for my husbands first trip there. It couldn't have been more wonderful! The crew was very friendly, polite and knowledgable. They were also very attentive but left us alone when we wanted as well. There is no comparison with this type of tour and all the others. It is in a class all its own! The yacht was beautiful, clean and the decor made you feel right at home. It really was like being on a friends yacht. It was very comfortable, relaxing and allows you to just sit back and enjoy the view. The reasonable rates were just the cherry on the cake! I will tell everyone I know about this tour and will only go on this one when back in NYC!

| Ths trip around Manhattan in a brand new yacht built along "classic" lines was a perfect platform to enjoy yourself while seeing the "city" fron the outside. The crew was very congenial and you felt like you were their guests. Being a boater from a different part of the US, it was a dual experience where I could see the New York sights and discuss the navigation proceedures in the area with the Captain.
My wife was reserved about the trip until she took it. She felt it was the highlight of our trip. |

| Very nice trip, enjoyable experience and scenery. Nice length of time. Lots of guiding provided along the way - nearly all sight were described - except the UN, which puzzled me.
It was nice and spacious, I think our boat was full, but it was ot at all crowded. Nice to have a snack and cake buffet, but for the high price we paid I would expect higher quality sandwiches and afternoon tea ingredients (this was an "afternoon tea" cruise).
All in all: room for improvements, but definitely a nice experience. |

| The boat was fabulous, the crew professional, friendly, it was an great experience for my family and myself. The flowers on each tables were a very nice touch, real silverware, plates and glass, and no plastic cups made you feel appreciated and welcome. The food, was really nice too. Absolutely no thing bad to say. I recommend it. My mother coming from France really enjoy every minutes of the trip. Thank you! |
