LOVED!!! - This was the highlight of our trip!! The boat was absolutely beautiful, the crew was super nice, and the jazz musicians were excellent. The city, the Statue of Liberty, and the bridges were amazing from the water. Such a great activity!!

Totally Fantastic - Definitely recommend this cruise. From the booking all the way to the on boarding and off boarding, the staff was great! They were professional and really cared about each guest and their experience. It was great to know that the seats/tables were assigned, therefore everyone had a wonderful view, and there was no rush or problem with boarding.
We went for my partners 70th birthday (And no, we aren’t 70 in spirit !! Recommend for younger attendees as well). When I mentioned the birthday, they added special touches which made it even an even greater evening.
The music was on point and classy, and the boat band was wonderful.
The views were incredible even though the weather was cloudy. I am a native New Yorker and would totally recommend this jazz cruise to visitors and natives alike.

A birthday to remember! - We went on Father’s Day 2025 and it was also my partner‘s 70th BD . Everything from the reservations, to the boarding, time on board and exit was first class! The ‘boat band’ was great too. Totally attentive and extremely pleasant crew. The boat itself was very nice - large enough for the waves yet small enough to be intimate and the views were fantastic even though the weather was cloudy. Despite being a native New Yorker, it was a wonderful experience.

Worth every cent - We had a wonderful experience aboard Manhattan II. We booked an evening jazz cruise but unfortunately there was some sort of confusion and we were boarded in another boat with no jazz band. The crew took care of us immediately, apologized, invited us to drinks and refunded the whole amount of the tickets in a matter of minutes. The quality of the service is incomparable and it's worth every cent. We would like to thank Chris and Fernanda for being so kind and taking care of us during the whole trip. The cruise was fantastic.

Cocoa & Cookies Jazz cruise - Lovely evening Christmas cruise. Crew and band are great, there’s a lovely festive atmosphere onboard.
We sailed right up to Brooklyn bridge and Statue of Liberty.
We sailed 5.15pm - 6.45pm and the New York skyline lit up at night was stunning.

A WONDERFUL WAY TO SEE MANHATTAN AND TO PUT YOU IN A CHRISTMAS KIND OF MOOD! - This really was a wonderful way to see the Brooklyn Bridge and Statue of Liberty at night by water with the Christmas jazz music as a backdrop.
