A fantastic way to see New York. A pleasant Sunday morning cruising the Hudson River, the Statue of Liberty and a full circumnavigation of Manhattan Island. All this and a sumptuous brunch as well. Better than any hop-on-hop bus as there is no traffic to combat and a greater area of Manhattan covered. A truly memorable way to see ALL of the island which is Manhattan.

Worth every cent! Such a fabulous way to celebrate the holidays with family! A memory you’ll never forget! The food, drinks, and service was perfect. Honestly, I was shocked. Don’t sleep on this.
I’ve spent many Christmas weekends in NYC and this is the perfect way to kick off a Saturday during the Holiday season. I’ve tried it all and this is just lovely. Pretty sights, nice food and drink, out of the weather until the day is in full swing. Love it.
The staff was superb. The food was fresh and delicious. Our family had a great time sightseeing on the river we thought this was a best kept secret in New York
Amazing brunch cruise around Manhattan. Staff aboard were excellent and the brunch was fantastic quality and plenty of it.
The Holiday brunch was a fun and relaxing way to see the sites of Manhattan, Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. We had a beautiful day for the tour which added to the highlights.
What a wonderful way to see Manhattan and the surrounding areas! We absolutely enjoyed this boat cruise. The staff was great, the food and drinks were great, and the view was incredible! Would absolutely do this again, and enjoyed every minute of it! Might not be great for young children, but teens and up - It’s perfect.
Endless and delicious food served buffet style. Staff couldn’t do enough for you. Boat was clean and done up gorgeous for the holidays. Only down was that it poured! so we really didn’t get to enjoy or see the landmarks ( the windows got a little foggy ) and the water was indeed choppy.
Awesome staff, great food and drinks . The views are amazing. The boat is clean and festive. Great addition to your New York Christmas experience.
Absolutely wonderful experience . For a 3 course meal + scenery the price is great! The food served was very tasty and satisfying. The staff was very kind and helpful even took a few pictures when asked. The Statue of Liberty was the highlight of the trip . I would prob enjoy the cruise more later in the summer when outside is mostly hot and you’ll be able to actually go outside and look around more .But since it’s spring it’s still very chilling and breezy outside on the water. But overall service ,price ,getting there everything was just 100!
We enjoyed our time on the water. Great perspective of the city. Brunch was good. Staff were friendly and helpful. Clean boat. The PA system was not functioning well, so we really couldn't hear anything being said - which was a little disappointing, since we are not familiar with the area and often didn't really know what we were looking at. But it was a beautiful day and fun trip.
Had a nice cruise. Caroling was fun. Views were spectacular. Boat traffic insane. Would I do it again, probably. Nothing special.
So we booked the brunch cruise. Arrived at 9.55 boat was leaving as we got there so they said nothing they could do. Put us on the evening carols and cocoa cruise was pathetic effort of cookies and didn’t even get cocoa. Total waste of money. Only bonus was a good view of the Statue of Liberty
Had a brilliant time on the Holiday Brunch Cruise. The food was lovely all four courses had something for everyone, which was good as I'm vegetarian . The boat was decorated lovely and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. The views were amazing we were lucky it was a clear sunny day and could go out into the deck, but even from inside the large windows meant you could see everything from the comfort of your seat. This was a fantastic way to Spend out last morning in New York.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Holiday Brunch Cruise aboard the Manhattan. The crew was welcoming and attentive. The food was delicious and plentiful. Captain Chris’ commentary on the various points of interest was enlightening and entertaining. We had such a good time we are planning to return in the Spring for the Architecture Cruise. Would highly recommend this cruise and cruise line.
I loved the Classic Harbor Line! Seeing New York by boat offers a completely different and fascinating perspective. We passed very close to the Statue of Liberty, ensuring amazing photos. I chose the option with brunch, which lasts almost three hours, and was very worth it. The boat is all closed, so there is no worry of wind or cold. I recommend!
with family with friends, the boat is stable comfortable and well heated. The staff not very motivated and the food is very average. Coffee is awful but good... Drinks after the premiere are charged and they keep the credit card for the entire cruise in case we swim away. The trip is ok, with minimal comments. For example, to eat a waffle you have to do it yourself with the machine provided for this purpose, allow 45 minutes... At the end, the staff will insist on tipping...
