My group was comprised of 5 adult women on vacation. We had a marvelous time. The captain & crew were professional, interesting and most important, very personable. Loved it!

The crew was entertaining and informative. They let us get involved with raising the sails. They spent half the sail pointing out landmarks and relating a lot of history of them and the area. They let us walk around boat and visited with us and answered all questions. Highly recommend.

WHAT TRIP????? THE BOAT NEVER SHOWED UP

I was extremely unhappy with this. We arrived on our scheduled confirmed time and date and the boat never showed up. Talked with the Dockmaster there in Yorktown and he stated the boat had not been there for several days. WHAT A RIP OFF Will be calling to try to get my money back. They did not have the decenancy to let us know of any cancellations. Would not recommend this activity to anyone.

Best part of my vacation

Having never been on a boat this size, was not sure if I would be a good sailor. However the water was calm and the crew kept our minds off of the movement by telling us history of the river and the landmarks along side the river. Some of the passengers were even allowed to help hoist the sails. I would thoroughly recommend this cruise for everyone who wants to ride a boat. It was the best part of my vacation. Thanks for providing this experience.

Friendly crew and neat boat! The crew explained a bit about sailing to us as they were unfurling the sails and let us do a bit of hands-on if we wanted. They gave us some general info about the Yorktown area and the history. Nice relaxing cruise! And props to sailor Alex who is friendly, funny - and absolutely gorgeous to look at! :-) A fun day indeed!

My husband and I enjoyed our little cruise on the Alliance out of Yorktown. The crew and captain were very friendly and informative about the boat and local history. I expected something a little more structured, but we would do it again and recommend it to a friend.
