Climb aboard for a peaceful sail away from the noise of the city. Enjoy views of the skyline, Ellis Island, and the Statue of Liberty.

Very enjoyable (minus the gratuity speech)

Highly reccommended. Great service, and the fact that drinks were included (courtesy of 1-2, I believe is reasonable to say one should have). Other than the gratuity speech, which I had been warned about, from previous reviews, they should do away with it, and just include it in the price. Kinda awkward if you are on a couples date, which I was on. Nice to be able to bring your own picnic, too of which I had forgotten to bring along. But it's allowed, so I would suggest it (food, snacks...). Thanks for reading. |

We've lived in New York for 15 years, and while we've hopped onto the Staten Island Ferry and the water taxi, we've never been on a schooner. Our experience on the Adirondack was sublime! So much so that our only complaint was that it wasn't a longer trip--we could have spent the whole day sailing around! The Captain and Crew were really lovely, and fortunately the weather cooperated. Afterwards, we promenaded around the high line park and meandered through Chelsea. A perfect summer night in the city. |

This was my second time on the schooner, and I really enjoyed it. I would recommend this activity for both tourists and those that live in the NYC area. |

This was our fourth time doing this and our first for the evening sail. It was great as were our other trips but we particularly liked the evening sail. The boat is relaxing and the crew is fantastic. Julien took care of everything in a relaxing but extremely competent way. The drinks were great too. |

i would make the trip a little longer, so that you can go to the GW bridge or the verizano |

This was our first time on a sail boat, we had a great time, the crew was friendly and prompt with the drinks (this is very important) we started at sunset and once the sun went down and the city lights went on the view was breathtaking, I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to have a good time. |

Everthing was simply perfect, the weather, company on the boat/ship and the crew.
It might cost a few more dollars, but it's far better than than the offer you get at the end of pier 16 (to many people and not very personal, all they wanted was your money). |

We make sure we take this sailboat cruise at least once every summer - It's great for locals to remind themselves what an amazing city we live in! |
