Me and my wife went on the night time 9:30 to 11:15 schooner cruise, we arrived at the docks and got our tickets to board and we only waited about 10min in line which was nice. Our cruise package included 3 rounds of drinks such as wine/beer/sparkling wine. We were told the first round will be serve...
This tour is a great way to see New York! I did the express cruise to the Statue of Liberty and back, and it was perfect. The boat was absolutely gorgeous, very open, and clean. There were two bathrooms downstairs and a bar upstairs. The staff was friendly and the express is perfect for doing some s...
It was a cold day but that didn't matter as the boat was warm and the tour guide was top notch. The champagne and hors d'oeuvres were a nice addition. Great way to get NYC in perspective.
The sunset sail on the Adirondack was incredible in all aspects. Friendly skilled crew, beautiful views, and best of all felt very safe on deck in open air, social distancing guidelines and mask requirements strictly followed by all. Thank you for a fabulous experience. Be back soon!!
I take this cruise on America 2, once a year! It s fantastic! The most beautiful of all NY boat rides! Absolutely special and unforgettable! Totally fun and exciting! Excellent lively crew! Now...even 3 drinks complimentary!
Love taking a cruise on the Adirondack, especially as the sun is setting and dusk settles over downtown NYC. The crew is super friendly and adept: no muss, no fuss. Great fun. Very relaxing. Good to get "out of the city" and onto the water.
This is such a great experience!!! I visit NYC every year and book a brunch cruise EVERY Year!!! Everyone I have brought to NYC enjoys this and says that this is definitely one of the highlights of their trip. The crew on both I & II are great and the food is always amazing. It does not matter if i...
June 3 The captain and the 2 ladies and the guy on our cruise in the evening were outstanding. Very friendly and well trained. The sailboat was beautiful First time onboard. The appetizers were excellent , great feta and dolmades and olives. Love the wraps. Everyone in our party enjoyed the s...
Great tour today on the Kingston classic yacht! My husband and I took the hour and half tour to the statue and skyline. We were looking for a more private tour than the big cruises. This was perfect!! Great price! Beautiful boat! Full bar! Knowledgeable captain! Only four of us on this afternoon cru...
We took the architectural tour and absolutely LOVED IT!! What a perfect way to see the city, learn about the skyline and spend a relaxing few hours. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city or just looking for something unique to do. Crew and harbor staff were super friendly and the champagne...
Wow! I absolutely recommend this trip to anyone who is looking for a relaxing yet fun adventure in the city! The boat is gorgeous and very clean and the crew was so nice. There are seats inside along the windows for everyone and if you sit on the left side of the boat you catch that view on the way ...
We had an AMAZING all female crew and the weather was iffy ! The captain assured us she checked the radar and we would be safe . She was correct, only a few drops of rain. We live in jersey City and rarely do tourist activities but we loved this enough to book again. It is peaceful, beautiful ...
Excellent experience. Well organized. Tour guide was passionate and knowledgeable. The tour actually counted for continuing education credits for architects, lending credibility and is why I chose this tour over others. Boat was comfortable with excellent viewing indoors and out. The snacks were ple...
A fabulous tour...in an incredibly comfortable, clean, and bright environment. I was so impressed by the number of landmarks and architecturally significant sites we were shown. The narrative was not only spot-on but was complimented with a nice historical backdrop to put our tour sites in perspe...
My husband and I took an AIANY Architecture Boat Tour on the Manhattan II and we absolutely loved it. It was something we decided to do for our first wedding anniversary and we are glad we did. The boat itself was beautiful. The staff was friendly and attentive and the narrative/information we re...
I had a wonderful 40th birthday celebrating on the Manhattan II with a limited party, due to covid. Every precaution was taken, we felt very safe and spaced out. The staff were amazing and so friendly, we had the best time. Thanks for helping me have such a special day!
Amazing! We went on the "Fall Foliage Schooner Sail" this weekend and it couldn't have been more perfect. The weather was beautiful, the views were stunning, and our crew was so attentive (thanks Molly!!) :) The boat also comes fully stocked with drinks and hot cocoa, blankets, and even a bathroom, ...
The cruise was great; food adequate and crew excellent. The only thing was it still was too early to enjoy the foliage change this year. Would also be better if it went up to Bear Mtn and back. Will plan to do it later next year.
My girlfriend and I did the Manhattan tour yesterday and we loved it. The boat is immaculate, the service is exceptional, the length of the tour is perfect and the guide was outstanding. A unique and dynamic way to see New York and learn about its history and architecture.
Top notch! The boat is spacious, clean, great seating. The staff are totally invested in your experience. Our trip could not have been better. I cannot recommend this trip more highly.
We did the sunset champagne boat tour on the Manhattan II, and it was incredible. Fantastic views of the city, the sunset and statue of liberty while being served drinks in a high end boat. Was a great experience.
We did the 1.5 hour cruise in the Manhattan ship. Staff very friendly and professional. Boat was nice and clean. Captain was good with the narrative. Liked that we could sit indoor or outdoor and move around on the ship. Especially appreciated how we were not packed in like sardines. $42, half...
The architect giving the tour was very knowledgeable. I have already recommended this tour to family members. Boat was beautiful and crew came around often to see if they could get you anything or snap a photo of you/family with Manhattan in the background. It was great to see Manhattan from anothe...
Amazing time!! The customer service, music, food and views were terrific. Wed recommend it to anybody who wants to have an unforgettable time. Tge views of the bridges at the end were fabulous.
Did the Sunday architecture tour! Best views of the skyline, statue of liberty, and tons of fun facts. Food drinks and staff were all great. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting an unbeatable experience of NYC from the water.
Best place in NYC for a sunset cruise. The boat was immaculate and the staff was extremely helpful and friendly, especially during these hard times. Will be bringing my family back when they come to visit in the near future!
Awesome tour! Our guide was a NYC architect and was very knowledgeable. The boat was very nice, we learned a ton about the NY skyline and next time we will take the tour that circumnavigates Manhattan. Highly recommend!
beautiful ship excellent captain lacked commentary on what we were seeing = occasionally someone would come over speaker and say this is this, that is that, but 95% of time silent so we were left to try to figure out what we were looking at - so that was disappointing - was a great 1 plus of comfort...
My husband gave me a sunset cruise aboard the America 2.0 as a birthday present. I cannot imagine a better gift. The sunset views were amazing and we even saw a rainbow! The crew was terrific and the boat was a fine vessel. Truly the perfect evening! We will be back with friends.
We went on a fourth of July cruise on the America 2. What a great choice! We had a great time even if we missed out on partying with 40,000 of our closest friends on shore. My only gripe would be the raised cost for this special event. It was more than a bit steep and had it not been my wife's 60th ...
It was a perfect day. The boat left right on time, and returned exactly as scheduled. The lecturer was very informative. Everything was gracious and we appreciated the free drinks and tasty snacks. too
Wonderful experience. It was our first time. The staff was friendly and prompt, the views were incredible and we met new friends. Would highly recommend this tour if in NYC.
Great experience and a fun, safe outing during COVID-19. Good staff and great views of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Jersey City from the water - one that people don't normally think of.
This us our second year on the Manhattan II for the Fall Foliage Tour. This boat is immaculate. The staff are courteous and helpful. The food is fantastic. We plan to do this annually.
I did their romantic sunset sail on the Schooner sail-boat and it was absolutely amazing and the definite highlight of my trip. It is much, much better than the daytime cruises, especially those offered on bigger, modern, soulless yachts. You could try to score a deal on Groupon but even if you must...
On the top of my list of favorite things to do at Christmas in NYC. We took the 4:30 cruise on Sat. The lights of NYC and NJ were shining brightly. The boat was festive and spotlessly clean. I was pleasantly surprised to be offered a complimentary glass of wine or champagne. The skyline of NYC and t...
Very friendly crewmembers, sunset over the Hudson river with some good wine is an experience unparallelled! Not expensive at all as well. Would recommend it to anybody visiting NYC! Thanks guys
My husband and I went on this cruise and had a great time! The boat was decorated nicely for Christmas...the jazz band was lovely...as were the views of the Statue of Liberty and NY skyline at night.
An amazing way to see NYC! The weather wasn t great but even with mist hiding most of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty we had the most incredible night on the boat. Would highly recommend. I just wish I d done it three years ago when I first moved here as I would have brought every visitor on a t...
It was a beautiful day and we really enjoyed sailing around the harbor. The crew were friendly and experienced. We were fortunate to have a small touring group and it felt like a private tour. Would definitely do it again or recommend this to friends.
We did the 2:45-minute around Manhattan Architecture tour on a sunny hot Saturday. Our experience was excellent. The boat was very comfortable and offered unobstructed views regardless of where you were seated (I enjoyed being outside on the bow for much of the tour, enjoying the breeze and open s...
We had a beautiful day and a beautiful Trip around the Statue of Liberty on July 9th, 2020 on the Adirondack sail boat. The staff was very attentive and professional. My only complaint was that we waited for a passenger who, because of physical problems, could not board, and we started the voyage a...
Our Champagne Sunset Cruise on the Manhatten was a marvelous way to end a day. The crew was spot on with service. The sights were spendid. I would highly recommend this cruise and company. It is suitable for families, couples, and singles.
My boyfriend and I did the Cocoa Sunset cruise. We are native New Yorkers to which I have never seen the Statue Of Liberty in my near 30 years of life living here. You get 20% now until about March of 2021? So It was a perfect time to see it out.
We took the AIA Tour and it was wonderful!! Very informative and interesting about so many building along the NYC skyline and shoreline. Also the handout with even more buildings location noted. Our guide was knowledgable and a focused speaker. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting a little ...
TONS of fun! My second trip. Improvements that can be made? 1) Egg Nazi - can only have ONE square of eggs . . . 2) Inside, one cannot hear (muffled sound) captain with the comments of area features.
Took my girlfriend on a date here and we had a great time! We had good drinks, good views, and the trio, the "Sound Waves" were awesome! This boat ride is classy, relaxing, and fun and I would recommend anyone to go on it. My girlfriend told me it was the best part of our whole trip to NYC. Next tim...
Great tour, good quality, comfortable clean boat. The architect voice over made it interesting as well as seeing all the usual sights from the water. Highly recommended.
We loved our 1.5 hour tour on the Kingston. From start to finish it was exactly what we were expecting and needed. It was way hot and so being on the water and in the shade was perfect. Having a cold beverage to sip on was icing on the cake. The trip showed us wonderful skyline views of NY from ...
One of the best experiences in the city, the crew is friendly and helpful, the ship is amazing, spacious and comfortable. If you want to take the perfect picture of the city this is your best option. And the food and drinks are great. Recommended.
Bought two student tickets for myself and my significant other. We had an amazing time. We are both architecture graduates and found it really informative and think it would be good for those who don t have much prior knowledge either. The pricing, especially for students, is very fair - they also g...
What a lovely way to end our first day in New York City. The staff on the ground and on the boat were efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. The information delivered during the cruise was not invasive and only included the essentials ... beautiful time of evening . The Chelsea Piers were easy to ge...
Booked the Fourth of July fireworks cruise. Unseasonably balmy night in the Bay led to a very enjoyable cruise. Lovely views of the City. Boarding was very orderly and they did not overbook so everyone had plenty of personal space. Stood at the bow and had a perfect view of the fireworks. Book early...
Very enjoyable sunset cruise. I enjoyed watching these very able women hoist the sails and get us on our journey. The captain provided lots of information about what we were seeing. Whole crew was very attentive. Liked the small group size, as compared to some of the larger ships. Do it!
Such a beautiful, classy boat and experience! Couldn't have asked for anything better. Drink and snack service, wonderful and knowledgable captain, friendly service, and up close views of the Statue of Liberty!
What a fantastic tour. Probably the best thing we did as during our trip to NYC. Truly interesting, informative, entertaining - ticked a load of boxes. Great way to spend three hours out of the early summer sun - seeing NYC from a new perspective. Our host was a very knowledgeable Architect and...
We have made multiple trips to New York. On the advice of a friend we took tour. Best part of any of our trips. Guaranteed we will be on the Classic Harbor Line when we return. Our guide was most knowledgeable.
This was our 2nd Classic Harbor Line tour. We did the AIA NYC Architecture tour and it was fantastic. Our AIA guide, Joe, was extremely knowledgeable, which made for a great experience. Joe truly brought the New York City to life -- even more than it already is! He provided us with so...
I took my girlfriend for her birthday and had a great time. There were 4 other couples there so we all had ample personal space especially with this Covid thing. I would definitely do it again.
Beautiful ship, extremely clean and well maintained: all Covid-19 precautions followed. Very informative lecture. We had wonderful weather which added to our magnificent day.
This is a very informative tour of the architecture of Manhattan (and a little of NJ as well). The guide, a certified architect with AIA, has some interesting stories to tell about some of the buildings along the way and some interesting facts to share about others. Two things, however, make this ...
Best birthday party ever!!! Celebrated my 50th birthday with family and friends aboard the Manhattan II, such a lovely experience. Classic Harbour Line is the best! Thanhk you all for a wonderful night!!!
Went with my fiance on the Adirondack (schooner), we had a great time. It was really cold but they gave us lots of blankets and hot drinks. The crew was really nice and I definitely recommend. (Look into the Groupon)
A fantastic architectural tour around Manhattan. The guide was brilliant, and the boat was lovely. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn more about New York City and its architecture.
Not recommend this company. If you want to spent some good time please choose other company. Smells bad. And very bad quality of food. And bad service , wish you will not ruin your time with this one.
I went on the AIANY around Manhattan Architecture and it was one of the best experiences I ever had. The tour guide was great (I forget his name ), the crew staff was excellent. My only reservation was the food (I m African... some chicken would have been nice, lol). Again, it was a great tour, t...
