Classic Harbor Line

My wife and I really enjoyed this activity. It was nice to get out of the city on a hot day and the views, especially of the Statue of Liberty, were fantastic. The crew were great - both professional and friendly. It was pretty windy on the day and the boat certainly does lean in the wind! Although a little disconcerting the first time it actually made the ride much more exciting. Great value for money - we'd definitely go again.

The Adirondack harbor cruise provided a relaxing view of the New York City - New Jersey shoreline and a wonderful view of Lady Liberty at night.

The crew and the vessel were, as always, great. This was at least our third trip on the Adirondack and can't recommend it highly enough.

The sailing was the best because of the manner it was run by the captain and crew. It was not done as the typical "tour", just a very relaxed atmosphere allowing the passengers to see it all from the water without having to hear a guide describing all of the details. The view says it all and lets the passengers decide what they want to see, there is plenty of time to take pictures of Lady Liberty and the other wonderful sights. And the captain has a wonderful personality and sense of humor and answered all questions asked of him about the Adirondack as well as the sights. My soulmate and I thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience, we are both victims of the same type of incurable cancer, but never once did either of us give cancer a thought. She is from CA and I am from FL, we take as many "vacations" together as we can afford, she used to live in the NYC area many years ago after coming from Chile. We did take a couple of other tours that gave us a chance (esp. myself) to learn about Manhattan and to experience the city upclose and personal, but the highlight of our entire trip (well, the 2nd highlight to our being together) was most certainly the sunset sail aboard the Adirondack. She is still raving about it and both of us will tell everyone we know who might visit NYC that no matter what they might choose to do as tourists, it will be mandatory to take your sailing. Well done!! And what a coincidence that the next day we were atop the Empire State Building and I spotted the Chelsea Piers. We kept looking closely and yep, there you were, just entering the harbor for another sailing. I questioned that it might be another schooner and she let me know quickly that it was NOT another boat, it was the Adirondack. Indeed it was your magnificant schooner. Thanks to the Captain and all of the Crew for their hard work and their courtesy to make our vacation even more memorable. We WILL return. Olen and Tricia

We took the 9pm boat and the weather was rough, but the captain and the crew sailed through it smoothly, making it one of the most memorable experiences of our lives.

the day of the cruise it was raining, although I had especially purchased the cruise for the sailing boat, we were stacked in the other boat, only later on the water when we waved to a sailing boat , I learned that we were actually given option to be on either of the boats..but unfortunately the person(young girl,who really didnt know what she was doing) in the ticket booth forgot to mention that sailing boat was boarding also.. 15 min after giving me my boarding tickets, as I am waiting by the booth, the same booth person calls me on my cell phone and asks me if we are on ourway to make it to the cruise..obviously she had messed the list that she didnt know we were already there..I think this organization can afford a smarter and more professional replacement on the booth...that this person has caused me 150 doollars of sth that I didnt want to participate..

The tour was very nice, and the crew was very friendly and nice to my kids.

My wife and I took the Sunset Cruise around Lower Manhattan. The scenery was tremendous and the crew was very friendly. I would definitely recommended it. I would, however, make one suggestion. There should be some type of narration of the sites so that an out-of-towner would know what they were looking at. Other than that, we had a really nice time.

If you enjoy seeing Manhattan and related from the harbour this is a very peaceful enjoyable way to do it. I was quite impressed with the Captain and crew of 2 mates. They kept the sails well tuned while navigating the ship and also serving beverages to all the guests. I will be back to NY next year and this is first on my list of things I will do again when visiting. Wear a jacket but if you forget, the crew quickly finds blankets for anyone needing one. Thanks!

A beautiful and romantic way to escape the stress of the city while observing still its beauty!

I had been on the Adirondack several times before, and decided to take my father on it for Father's Day. He loved it. It was a great atmosphere to just catch up on things while taking in the views and escaping the busy city for a while. He is a bit of a New York City history buff, having lived here his entire life, so he very much enjoyed getting to see the skyline from the water - the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, all the buildings in the financial district and downtown, not to mention the Hoboken and Jersey City skylines on the other side of the Hudson River that have changed so much in the past decade. All in all, this was just a great way to spend a few hours, relax, enjoy the drinks and thank my dad for everything.

I highly reccomend this. My girlfriend and I had a great time. The crew was very friendly and the ship wasn't too crowded. Gives you a totally different view of New York. We loved it!!!

The crew was great! we all enjoyed the views, breeze and the peace on the Hudson and harbor

The City Lights Sail on the Schooner Adirondack was the most romantic way to spend an evening in New York! My wife and I spent half the trip enjoying the company of other couples and families, and the other half in a romatic world of our own. The weather was perfect, the sights were breathtaking, and the crew members on the boat were outstanding. I highly reccommend this cruise!

The weather was perfect, the peacefulness and friendliness were terriffic. At the end of the sail, no one wanted to get off the schooner.
