Classic Harbor Line

Recommend this as a nice sail for everybody.Very small children would get antsy after a bit though. Only suggestion would be they should give an occasional narration or interesting story about the harbor skyline or buildings, etc. Would do it again.

Beautiful trip.

I traveled with my grandson who is 13 years old. We would have liked to go around Governor's Island as described in the review program. Also, the waterfalls at the Brooklyn Bridge would have been fun if that section of Manhattan would have been included. My grandson enjoyed the trip but thought it was a little boring. (do not use my name for any reviews) Thanks.

Ths was a sailing schooner, but there was no wind. So there was no sailing. I would rather not have spent $80 each for a sail that did not happen. I could have had the same motor ride on a larger boat meant to motor. The service was great, the guides were great, but it was very disappointing . Even though a beautiful day, very hot in the sun with no wind. I would recommend if there is wind. But they don't tell you if it will be windy or not.

I've taken many Circle Line Tourist Cruises around Manhattan and past the Statue of Liberty, so when a friend recommended the Schooner Adirondack, I was excited for a cool ride with not so many people. While it was a neat experience to ride on the Hudson River on a sailboat, I found the actual activity to be a little disappointing. First, I went with a group of 4 people, and we were not all able to sit next to each other due to a lack of seating. (FYI - try to be the first in line if you want to sit with your group). Second, there was no commentary about what we were seeing. I'm a New Yorker, so it wasn't that important to me, but for my friends who were visiting from out of town (and who didn't get to sit with me), they found it frustrating to just be looking at the skyline and not really knowing what they were seeing. Finally, the activity advertised that we would go around the tip of Manhattan and sail to just under the Brooklyn Bridge. We didn't do that at all. We basically sailed down the Hudson, circled the Statue of Liberty and went back up the Hudson to Chelsea Piers. I was quite disappointed. So, I can't say that it wasn't a nice activity - but I just was expecting something a little more fun and exciting. If you like quiet, peaceful rides with cool scenery, you would like this activity. If you're looking to learn a bit about New York, talk and have fun with your family or friends, and be with more of an upbeat, energetic crowd, this is not for you.

I decided to surprise my date with a trip into the city from Jersey to do something a little different this time. The day was beautiful and although we didn't have as much wind as we would have liked, the experience was a positive one! The Adirondack is a great ship, the crew was fantastic and very helpful and the sights were wonderful...We will go back on a windier day to take full advantage of the sails! Thanks, Larry

Sailing around NYC was a great experience. The crew was great and the sail boat was clean - two items I believe are important They offered drinks which was unexpected but certainly cured my thirst. I highly recommend it.

The brunch cruise was an all around lovely expereince compplimented well by the beautiful boat and attentive, knowledgeable and kind crew. I would highly recommned this cruise to any tourist... or New Yorker!

i thoroughly enjoyed the brunch cruise around manhattan. i liked having the option of being indoors or out. the yacht itself was lovely and the capatain gave a narrative of the landmarks we were passing. the food was good and the crew professional.

Great food, LOTS of food, a great way to spend an afternoon

We could not have asked for a better night! The sail boat was beautiful. The ride was very peacful and you forget that you are in a big city with all the hustle and bustle happening just a few minutes away! The staff was helpful, very nice and accomadating. It was a great night for sailing on the way back we did not need to use the engines - very nice!

The entire crew was awesome...not a single complaint. Completely worth $50, I plan on doing it again sometime!

It was a great experience!!! We highly recommend it. I have lived in Manhattan for 15 years and can't believe I have not gone on this outing before. I will definitely do it many more times in the future with friends from out of town and just with friends locally. The weather was perfect for our sunset sail. The crew was great - friendly and attentive. We brought some bread, cheese and olives, they supplies the wine and we sat back and watch a beautiful sunset and the spectacular lights of the city come on. It was a great time had by all.

This is the second time I've been on this sailboat tour. It is wonderful. The staff on board are very nice and informative. There are great views, and it is wonderful to sail around New York Harbor.

What a great experience. It was a nice date for my wife and me.
