Loved every minute

We had the BEST time! The smaller yacht cruise was perfect. The boat still had a full service bar, restroom and plenty of viewing areas. Susannah and Arram were so accommodating with taking our pictures and supplying us with a lifetime of memories. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Beautiful small boat tour...

Beautiful small boat tour of the Hudson. You see all of the sites of the harbour including Governor’s island and the Statue of Liberty up close. Very relaxing and fun

Wonderful Experience on Kingston!

The staff on board were so friendly and knowledgeable! The boat was the perfect size for an intimate experience and the timing of the sunset behind the Staue of Liberty was stunning! Thank you for a very positive experience for my daughter and myself! Will highly recommend to others!
