Amazing cruise with stunning views - With my mum and sister for a weekend in New York and booked alive after five cruise for their birthdays. The boat was lovely, real party feel on main deck and slightly quieter but still great atmosphere on lower deck. The views from the top deck were unreal and DJ played fantastic music to suit all. When we reached Statue of Liberty, with New York New York playing, it was such a memorable moment. We had Walk The Plank package. Beer or wine included and it was full range of beers available. We had plenty and there didn’t appear to be a limit on how many you could have. Buffet was such a pleasant surprise with amazing choice from gyozzas to pasta. Can not recommend this cruise enough. The staff were so friendly too.

Not worth it at all! - Really expensive already for a cruise that’s actually only an hour. They sit at the dock for over an hour while you breathe in fumes from the other boats. Then beers are $14 and cocktails are $25+. Food looked like awful cafeteria food. Just ride the ny ferry for 2.75 3 times and buy drinks on there or BYOB.

Cancelled - My wife and I bought the site seeing pass and this was one of the events we were supposed to be able to do. When I walked in I saw about 8 people sitting in the waiting area and as I walked up to the desk to sign in I was told the tour had been canceled. This happened on a Saturday and the tour is only weekends so I asked about Sunday and still was told it was canceled. When I asked why it was canceled the "manager" told me there was only us 2 for the trip. How does he know we would be the only 2 to show up? It was 5pm when I tried signing up, the boat boards at 530pm and leaves at 6pm... and he already knew we would be the only 2 the next day? this did not make any sense to me. We were most excited for this event and walked nearly 2 hours from lower Manhattan and had to turn around and walk back.. very unprofessional

Gutted - This trip was canc without telling us. We went to the doc to board to be told they were not running the trip today. No message from trip advisor or hornblower.
