“The company dont tell u or send a e-mail or nothing saying that u got be there before, what they say on the website that it was 7 i got there at 7 and the boat had already leave and nobody was there no more.

“Started and ended on time, with delicious food, music, great views… It was a cool experience all together. However things to note would be it was kind of congested seating.. next to next tables with very less gap in the normal area !

“This was absolutley the best thing we did in NY. It was so much fun! Santa was awesome and a Bama Fan, what made me happy! Roll Tide! The food was great, the drinks fabulous, highly recommend the cosmo. The boat is perfect. It was freezing outside, but that did not stop us from going up on the top deck to get some of the most wonderful pictures. I highly recommond booking this dinner cruise. Perhaps it was Christmas night and that made it even more special, but the sights and pictures you get are out of this world. I would do this each time we go to NYC. This…”
Review of NYC’s New Year’s Eve harbor cruise with buffet, open bar, DJ, skyline views, and fireworks, including tips on value and timing.
“The decoration and the atmosphere were amazing. Everyone was super friendly, the food was good. The music could have included more new songs, unfortunately only oldies were played, which meant that the dance floor was getting a little emptier. But overall it was a great experience, although it could have gone on a little longer, 3 hours went by way too quickly.”
Review of New York City’s 3-hour skyline dinner cruise, with buffet dining, harbor views, window-seat advice, pricing, and practical tips.
“Booked a buffet dinner experience but a window seat for an upgraded experience, I shouldn't have bothered as the floor was only 30% full. Also stated clearly in the inclusions "one complimentary glass of champagne" per ticket. I was denied, so had to spend an extra $80 on not included drinks for myself and my daughter. The staff was kind and helped with photos but based on the mistake over the included items I could not recommend.”

Celebrate Christmas Day on a NYC harbor cruise with a festive buffet, skyline views, live DJ, and Statue of Liberty photo stops.
“Very pleasant atmosphere, excellent food, very good briefing, and friendly service. The music could have been more appropriate (only music from the 90s was played, while Christmas music would have been more fitting on December 25). There was ample space for taking photos, and the ship's crew was very friendly and attentive.”
