| I enjoyed the sail very much, especially since the weather was so perfect. I wish we had more time to sail around to the Brooklyn side and see the bridges up close, but all in all a great time. Very pleasant and attentive staff as well. Thanks! |

Wonderfully Delightful!

| After having such a horrific day in traffic on I-95 I could have not ask for a better way to end my evening, than on the Schooner Adirondack! Thank you so much for such a splendid serene evening. It was a wonderful experience to say the least.

THANK YOU SO MUCH IT WAS WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. |

| We were hoping for a romantic get-away from the city. The views over Manhattan, New Jersey and Statue of Liberty were nice, although we felt that they would have been even nicer from the other side of the boat - so be sure to pick the correct side of the boat! It is stated on the website that alcohol is not the main attraction during the sail, but we felt that it played a big part. It was a noisy booze cruise atmosphere, not a romantic one. You should not expect to take pictures because of the waves/darkness and because you cannot switch sides even for a minute. The staff was very helpful and courteous. |

Wonderful trip.

| The schooners are lovely, the crew is friendly, and helpful, and NYC Harbor is one of the great sights of the world,especially at night.
However, since most of the passengers are tourists, it would be nice if they made some effort to point out the local sights.
Also, they spent some considerable time just sitting in the water. Of course the location and view were fantastic, but it still would have been nice if they spent more time sailing around.
My wife of 37 years, and I found it a very romantic setting for a date.
Would definitely recommend, especially after dark. |

| The crew was great, the boat was great and my glass was never empty. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening. We even received the biggest bonus I could have ever asked for which was a huge fireworks display right in front of the Statue of Liberty that night. Very nicely done, and I will go every time I am in New York. Just an amazing evening. |

Phenomenal...

| This review is being written by someone who really did take the trip on the boat. It was a pleasure to see the city from the water-- great way to escape the summer heat and a very romantic night. The crew was very attentive and the people on the boat were behaved 98% of the time. Very nice time and worth the $50. |

Absolutely Breath Taking!

| My husband and I took a trip to NYC with our close friends to celebrate our 10th anniversary. We planned this sailboat ride as our very last activity to our great vacation. We are so glad we did. This ride was more than we ever imagined! Let me start with the crew, they were so friendly, funny, and all had great personalities. The ride itself was smooth, relaxing, and a great way to cuddle up with your loved one. I would recommend this to everyone. The city lights sail is a great choice for those that want to see the city in a different way and just relax. I am so so so glad we did this. It was the perfect ending to our stay in NYC! |
