Wonderful must do excursions in NY

Very atmospheric and...
Very atmospheric and well organized. Very nice and accommodating team. Time flew by. The view was spectacular.
AMAZING EXPERIENCE ABOARD
We truly enjoyed the Sunset Cruise—it was an unforgettable experience! The yacht is incredibly comfortable, beautifully designed, and even has heaters, which made the ride cozy and relaxing. Inside, everything feels luxurious, elegant, and very well maintained. The crew was exceptionally kind and attentive, always making sure we had everything we needed. We tried the cocktails and the Baileys hot chocolate, and both were absolutely delicious. We also ordered a cheese plate, which we loved! If you’re looking for a magical way to enjoy New York from the water—we highly recommend this Sunset Yacht Cruise. It’s romantic, relaxing, and perfect for any special moment.
Wonderful!
Trip on sailboat was expertly handled, crew was both professionally competent and pleasantly engaging. Would highly recommend this.
Loved seeing Statue of Liberty from the water
Great tour but we didn’t book a tour with live jazz and that’s what we got (neither of us are jazz fans). It was too loud for such a small space and as much as the band were great we’d never have booked it. Surely you need to tell people this !? Staff really good and very attentive. Great to see the Statue of Liberty from the water.
