This was a first activity for us. It was so different and fun to do. The captain and crew were friendly and gave a great history review. There offer a few snacks and a pretty good hot dog for a decent price. |

Went April 27, so if you go at this time dress warm!! Our crew was super great!! Very friendly and helpful. People are ask to participate if they want to, but not forced! You laugh a lot and meet great people from all over the US. We loved it!!! Sorry to say there were clouds, so the sunset wasn't as pretty as we had hoped, but who can control Mother Nature. We had a really great time! |

Professional and fun crew - allows you to help as much as you want. Entertaining dialogue on Yorktown history and the sites that can be seen form the water. Make sure they fire the cannon and be sure to dress warmly as it does get cold on the water. |

We had a blast. It was a bit nippy out and it took a little while for me to warm up but all in all, we had a lot of fun. We plan to come again in the summer when it's a bit warmer. The crew is very friendly and entertaining. I wasn't expecting to learn about the history of Yorktown like i did! All around great adventure. |

We really enjoyed sailing on the Alliance! We highly recommend this trip to everyone. The crew was extremely friendly and very knowledgable about the area. It's was hands-on experience as well. They let my husband help raise the sails! There were many great photo opportunities. York river is really beautiful - especially at sunset. |

The Captain and crew were just fantastic! On our journey, they shared their knowledge and humor pertaining to the schooner and enthusiastically shared some of their own adventures while sailing the seas. They made a point of bonding with each of their guests which made us all feel special. I highly recommend this adventure to young and old alike!!!!! |

A gentle sail on the York River

The sailing ship left the dock and the crew put up sails on four masts. The cruise was entirely under sail except for leaving and arriving at the dock. It was cold on the evening we sailed, but an overall relaxing event. If you're looking for adventure, this is probably not the activity for you. But is you would like to experience a nice romantic evening without stress, this is it. |
