Christmas cocoa cruise

We enjoyed the Christmas cocoa cruise , the boat trip was brilliant the staff were really lovely and the singer and the band were fantastic , it was lovely and Christmassy , the sights were amazing ,my only slight criticism that the Christmas songs they sang which were brilliant but most the children didn’t know them I think for family Christmas trips like this it would of been better to have songs the children could song to , would definitely go again 😁

Not again!

The cruise was fantastic, the crew was great. BUT, felt the jazz ensemble was just having a "jam session". Views of the city were great- seeing the Statue of Liberty up close is not to be missed. But, the jazz group was a BUST.

Highly Recommend

What a fun experience and unique way to see NYC! The staff was wonderful and we especially loved the music. The cookies and beverages were a fun touch and seeing the sunset and day turn to night was a magical way to start our NYC trip.
