| I loved this activity. We did it over Thanksgiving weekend, so it was a little too chilly. But it was a scenic overview of Manhattan. Great photos and there's plenty of food with something for adult or kid tastes. Definitely beats waiting in lines at other tourist activities with bored kids. It would probably make a decent Valentine's Day or Mother's Day outing. Recommendation: take photos during the first half hour of the trip as those are the most classic photo opportunities and then eat to your heart's content after the boat's passed onto the Upper East Side (unless you want photos of projects). Enjoy! |

| I thought the price was a bit much for the trip, but it was such a nice trip it was almost worth it. I for some reason thought that there would be free (alcohol) drinks on the yacht and that is sort of what sold it for me, but you only get one free drink. There was plenty of food though and the drinks were not too expensive after your free one. The food was good and the trip was very nice. I really liked the crew they were very nice and you could be outside or inside on the boat. It was so relaxing after being in the fast paced city of New York for a few days to be on the boat and see the cities attractions in such a comfortable and low key atmosphere. I definitely recommend this trip to everyone, although I don't think it would be a good idea for children. All adults though I believe would definitely enjoy the trip. Good Times! |

| This was one of the best cruises I ever di. The price of $75 is really great for what is offered. The boat is small and very nice. The food which is offered is excellent. There is something new coming all the time and the quality is really good.
The trip goes all around Manhattan with great views of the financial district and the statue of Liberty.
I will do that trip again if I am ever back in New York. It was really great! |

| We booked this as we wanted to do something other than just shop on our 4 day break to New York and felt that it represented decent value for money. Well, we were wrong, it provided excellent value for money! There were around 20 people on the boat, just the right amount, and a crew of 3 (all women by the way). The captain was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, giving good information on some of the sites as we travelled around the island.
The food was good and kept coming, plenty to eat, in fact I don't think anyone touched the apple pie they brought out near the end!!
Some fantastic views of Manhattan, got close to the Statue of Liberty and the real surprise was just how beautiful the north part of the island is, especially during the fall with colour of the trees. An excellent trip!! |

| It was a perfect day. My husband and I with my mother were so excited to see the Yacht. It was beautiful. The staff were very friendly, the views were breathtaking and the food was awesome. It was our favorite thing that we did in New York. WE LOVED IT AND RECOMMEND AS A MUST. |

| We were a group of seven adults: two Americans in their fifties, two Belgians in their fifties, and their three Belgian children in their twenties and thirties, and the tour was perfect. The crew was funny and friendly, without being pushy or obstrustive. The tour was beautifully done (it helped that the weather was ideal == in bad weather, it could be a drag). The boat was delightful. The food was adequate, if not exciting. But a very enjoyable event == of our European visitors' trip it was definitely one of the high points. |

| I really enjoyed the cruise around Manhattan, I think it was a wonderful way to see the city. The food was good and the staff was very friendly and knowledgable. My only complaint is that there was not enough inside seating with tables for all of the passengers. I ended up eating on the bow with my plate in my lap. |

| The brunch cruise is a great and different way to see Manhatta (and more)! A unique way to discover how large and beautiful the area is. See the sights - Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Hundson river, Chrysler building and so much more. With great senery, delicous food (and stocked bar), friendly staff and your friends, family or loved ones you can't go wrong. Be it a celebration, sight seeing or a romantic outing - it is a very versitile cruise that may be enjoyed by all.

| i was looking for a romantic place to celebrate anniversary with my wife and i i was suspicious about this kind of a brunch/cruise. but i was very surprised. yacht is very neat and nice. cabin has lot of windows and light. staff was excellent (young guys, professional yet relaxed and funny, and great female captain!), they gave as descriptions of places we were going thru, not too many, not too little. food was great for a brunch. first we were served bagels, croissants, pancakes stuff like that. and later there was a huge piece of smoked ham and club franks and salad. so if you are worrying about food, stop worrying. good bar. great for romantic date, hanging out with friends and/or family. 6 out-of 5 stars recommendation |
