Great Sunset Celebration with Friends

Took some aunties and uncles and a handful of my daughter’s close friends on this sunset cruise to celebrate my daughter’s college graduation. Living in NC with her in school at Seton Hall, this cruise made for a perfect graduation party. We had a blast together! The sightseeing and photo opps were perfect. Room to move around as well as talk and watch the city. A couple tables were reserved for us so we could be together. We enjoyed beverages on board and appreciated being able to bring some of our own snacks. Really helpful since there were 15 of us. The crew were awesome as was the “booking” team. Thanks!!

Good, not Great Experience

This is a good experience. Not sure it's worth the money, particularly for the "sunset" part. Doesn't make much sense to go to the statue first, before it's lit up. Better on the way back. Also, you get one soda, beer or glass of wine per person. Everything else is for a cost. The good part is that it's not crowded. The windows need washed.

Awesome tour

The tour was great. The view we got of the Statue of Liberty was amazing. A river tour has to be the best way to see it. I was surprised that the cheese plate and hummus were also really good. Huge plus that boat is warm on the inside. Take a jacket! It gets a little chilly outside after the sun goes down. I took my 12 year old daughter. We both loved it!

Sunset Cruise

This cruise was wonderful. Seeing the Statue of Liberty with the sunset, then its lighting up was amazing. The staff were incredible!!
