Birthday Surprise - This was the perfect birthday surprise for my girlfriend/partner. She loves jazz, always asked to go to a jazz club and life kept getting in the way, but this felt like the perfect moment. The wooden boat already set the vibe—romantic, cozy, and timeless. A wonderful jazz band, friendly staff, two complimentary drinks, and sailing past the Statue of Liberty, One World Tower, Brooklyn Bridge, and the skyline… even the foggy, rainy weather made it feel more magical. Thank you to the crew and the band for making her birthday unforgettable.

What a brilliant experience - We went on the evening jazz cruise. All the crew were superb, but special shout out to Maggie who was absolutely brilliant, and a real credit to your company, and really knowledgeable about the sights on the river!

Great and fun mini cruise for locals and tourists alike! - This was a great way to be a tourist in our own backyard! Crew were professional, assigned seating was convenient, cabin was nice and cool (if you're susceptible to motion sickness), and the band was very pleasant. No issues from getting our boarding passes to getting on board. The trip starts by heading south on the river towards the statue of Liberty, then swinging by governor's Island and up the east river towards the Brooklyn bridge, returning to Chelsea Piers. The 90 minutes just flew by. Our family of four had a great time enjoying the sights and company.
