Beautiful sunset cruise

I went on this cruise with my husband and three children. We enjoyed it very much. It provided a beautiful view of New York City and the New Jersey side and also of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. It was very peaceful and relaxing and a nice way to end the day. The crew was very polite and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this cruise to anyone who wants to see NYC in a unique and different way.

Best thing I did whilst in NYC

This was a fantastic trip and the highlight of my stay in NYC. You board the Schooner at sunset and sail away from the hustle and bustle of the city on the peaceful waters. Watching the city transform from day to night is something I'll never forget. Easily worth the $60 fee, would be still good value for double that price!

...great views and a knowledgeable captain!

Our captain, Kate, was super knowledgeable of sailing and the waters. As a sailor myself, I had many questions about the sea floor, the ship and the winds that navigate the Hudson. It was a fantastic sail...we were cranking at 9.9 against the current! Of course, the captains can't order wind, we were just lucky. On board, with the exception of the crew, there were only nine of us, which I was hoping for. Captain Kate said they can pack 49 people on board, so if you want a great sail, go when it's raining, and go late in the season, like we did. It was perfect. The crew was great too and I helped raise the sail. A fine evening all around. (They had great beer on board too! No need to drink a bud!)

This was our seond time aboard the sailing ship. The night was perfectly warm with (unfortunately) little breeze. Nothing could spoil the time we had. Met some great people and shared food and wine and information. The sights at sunset were just spectacular.

Five Canadians took this sail on a warm October evening with a full moon as backdrop for the magic that is the New York skyline. Don't miss this fabulous tour with the best crew and beverages!! We love the Adirondack!!

My husband and I have been taking the twilight cruise for the past three years, and it is one experience we never want to miss. Seeing the lights go in the modern city while sailing on a schooner is delightful. We haver never been disappointed in the sailing and the crew.
