Relaxing Mini Night Getaway

It’s a relaxing chill boat ride around south of manhattan looking over beautiful landmarks along the Hudson. A beautiful date night escape into a tranquil night of live smooth Jazz music taking you to a place of cozy comfort with a couple of drinks and treats. Highly recommend checking this experience.

Exceptional Experience

Exceptional experience. The staff is extremely welcoming and kind, and the service is great. The entertainment was very enjoyable & impressive. Cocktails on board are not as expensive as anticipated ($16 each). Definitely recommend for couples or tourists.

There isn’t anywhere to...

There isn’t anywhere to wait so do not arrive too early. Staff are all very friendly. Great choice of cocktails. Disappointed that the band took a break. No music was played during that time.

Very understandable company !!

I was not able to go on the cruise because my husband was sick. TripAdvisor took care of everything in a timely manner. I was able to get a refund! Very trustworthy company!
