Classic Harbor Line

Great crew, liked the free beverage, just enough touristy info. Beautiful evening activity. Left and returned right on time.

Even thought I was with a female friend, she is not my girlfriend or potentially my girlfriend, I would recommend this to anyone trying to impress a date/significant other. The staff onboard was great and the ride and views were tremendous. If you already have someone and want to do something special, this is it.

We had a great 90minutes. The boat was beautiful and only half full which made it even better. The crew was very nice and the commentary not invasive. My 7 year old even enjoyed it and never once uttered 'are we there yet'. Toni

- very kind host; and - beautiful boat.

Well staffed, comfortable, beautiful.

We've been on numerous boat tours around Manhattan and throughout the harbor. We love being on the water near the city. This was "tops" in all of our experience because of the small size and elegagance of the boat, type of people on board who were engaged and interested, and the most informative and pleasant staff. The architectural emphasis was unique -- far more than simply pointing out the sights. Heartily recommend for locals and tourists of all types!

Excellent speaker and overview of New York -we felt that if we only were allowed one trip out of all the excursions we arranged then this would be our favourite one . refreshments appreciated .

We selected this boat as we did not want a trip with hundreds of other tourists and we were not dissapointed. The boat has character and there were only about 10 of us on the whole boat. Perhaps if it were later into sping or summer there would have been a lot more. The trip was about the right length for us, 2 adults and 2 teenagers as we were never going to dine or dance. It was great to see the statue of liberty and the city from the water by night. The crew were great and gave us a memorable highlight to our trip to New York

My Mum and I took the jazz cruise, and it appealed to both our age group (21 and 50).when we arrived at the boat the sun was just going down, so got some great pictures of the boat. Once on board we were introduced to the crew, and the jazz band. There was a small bar on board, but we had already prepaid our dinks and cheese platter ( both excellent value). The cruise itself was magical with the jazz band playing as we motored around manhattan which was all lit up and the Statue of Liberty . Would definitely recommend the jazz cruise.

Guide was knowledgable and entertaining. Boat is wonderful and comfortable. Crew & service excellent. food was more than expected.

We had a wonderful tour, and learned a lot about the history and architecture of Manhattan and environs. Our AIA guide spoke nonstop for about 2.5 hours, an amazing wealth of knowledge about just about everything we passed. The crew was very helpful and provided tasty snacks and drinks. Tour included nice loop by Governor's Island and Statue of Liberty, and unusual views from Spuyten-Duyvil canal and Harlem river. Especially interesting was our guide's detailed history of the bridges over all the rivers, something you don't always notice. For a seasoned New Yorker or first-time tourist, highly recommended.

Having read reviews for various boat trips around Manhattan, this one appeared to offer a particularly good way to see the views in comfort and without having to queue. We weren't disappointed. The 'Manhattan' was very comfortable with plenty of space for the number of passengers to eat and take in the views without feeling the slightest bit crowded. The brunch was served throughout the trip with plenty of good food for everyone. Sights were pointed out and we spent a good length of time by the Statue of Liberty, allowing everyone to take all the photos they wanted. We were travelling with our sons (18 & 20) and also met up with relatives from New York and the brunch cruise provided a great venue for this reunion. Our relatives also really enjoyed the trip, although it was familiar territory for them. The weather was also fabulous, clear blue skies and sunshine. It was cool and breezy on deck but views were equally good from inside. It was a great trip and the time flew by all too quickly - I would definitely recommend this as a great way to see the Manhattan skyline and to view the whole island from the water.

It wasn't much of a day when we went out but the atmosphere on the boat was very nice & relaxed with great service. The trip was very long for the price & went at a nice comfortable pace. Would highly recommend.

The size of the boat and number of passengers was ideal. Crew members were very nice and helpful. We were even able to enjoy a nice glass of wine during our sail.

Only available seats were in bar area with no loudspeakers -- could not easily hear guide's comments. Guide did not speak about any but a few of the buildings identified on the brochure/map. Mostly interested in bridges.
