| I took my boyfriend on a trip on a sunset sail and it was one of the best things I've done since moving to New York. You'll get an unmatched view of the city and how it's laid out, the skyline, and the Statue of LIberty. If you're not in love with New York, you will be by the end of this sail.
The crew was absolutely fantastic. Friendly, competent and fun, and just the perfect balance so you felt safe, but not like you were on a schmaltzy double-decker tourist bus.
This is a great outing for a date, or for a group of visiting family or friends. It's really an unbelievable bargain.
It would actually also be a great idea for a work outing. Way cheaper than a ballgame.
They serve wine and beer. I'd recommend bringing something to snack on, sandwiches, etc.
I definitely plan on doing this again. |

| Without a doubt the best value for money excursion you can do in NYC. This is the second time in the space of 3 months I have been on the Schooner and there's not many better ways to begin a Saturday evening. The crew were enthusiastic and ensured everyone was comfortable for the 2 hours we were onboard. They were also more than willing to take photographs which was a very nice touch.
We left the Schooner completely satisfied with our experience and both agreed we could have stayed on there all night!!
I recommend this to anyone, be it tourists or New Yorkers who may not have done such a trip before. An excellent evening's activity. |

| About 10 of us took the cruise as part of my friend's bachelorette party and it was a great time. They even waited for the bride who was running late before we set sail - and for that I am extremely grateful. The crew was friendly and fun. Overall great time. |

| Highly recommend this "excursion"! You board the boat, sit back and enjoy the scenery. The captain and crew were very friendly and drink service was very ample. My wife and I had fun as well as our 15 and 7 year old sons and our 3 year old daughter. Fun for all ages! |

| This was a great trip and a fantastic value (especially when you factor in the cost of the drinks). I'm going back and forth about wanting to have learned a little bit about the sites we passed along the way - it would have been nice, but a quiet cruise to the statue was appreciated, too. They have a very strict purchasing policy, so good luck with the weather (our sunset sail unfortunately didn't offer a sunset...but thank god the rain held off until we were back on ground!). The crew was great and we really enjoyed ourselves - tons better than the cattle call of Circle Line. |

| This is one of our favorite activities-- we've been on this trip three or four times. It's always a wonderful experience, certainly for tourists but also for New Yorkers like my wife and I. Not only is the trip itself one of the most interesting and engaging ways to enjoy the city, but the service on the boat is always flawless- fun and relaxed, but always attentive to the needs of the passengers. We recommend this highly, and encourage anyone visiting the city to enjoy this transporting experience. |

| The sunset sail was amazing. My boyfriend and I were celebrating our third anniversary and we were both very pleased. It was relaxing and entertaining. We sailed around the Hudson and saw amazing sights like the Statue of Liberty. Julian and his crew were great-very personable and knowledgeable of the sights. We highly recommend this sail and would definitely go again!! |
