Fantastic way to see the new York skyline at night and sail past the lady herself in all her glory while enjoying carols hot chocolate and more . We all loved this and left feeling very Christmassy !
Outstanding! Great w kids! The music, drinks, cookies, all was great but wish they had gluten free cookies!
We enjoyed the Christmas cocoa cruise , the boat trip was brilliant the staff were really lovely and the singer and the band were fantastic , it was lovely and Christmassy , the sights were amazing ,my only slight criticism that the Christmas songs they sang which were brilliant but most the children didn’t know them I think for family Christmas trips like this it would of been better to have songs the children could song to , would definitely go again 😁
The cruise was fantastic, the crew was great. BUT, felt the jazz ensemble was just having a "jam session". Views of the city were great- seeing the Statue of Liberty up close is not to be missed. But, the jazz group was a BUST.

What a fun experience and unique way to see NYC! The staff was wonderful and we especially loved the music. The cookies and beverages were a fun touch and seeing the sunset and day turn to night was a magical way to start our NYC trip.
Really enjoyable cruise! Jazz combo was great! Delicious hot cocoa and beautiful skyline views and the statue of liberty.

The music on this cruise is surprisingly good; real jazz aces. And the service stellar as always. A delight. We are regular sailors with Classic, and this time had the joy of taking our niece, who was home from college. Highly recommend those cruises that go from day to night. Skyline comes alive, and sunset behind Lady Liberty.
David, thank you for booking another cruise with us and taking some time to provide your valuable feedback and recommendation.

It's wonderful that you shared this special experience with your niece and appreciated the transition from day to night with the skyline and sunset behind Lady Liberty. We look forward to more opportunities to host you on the water! - Classic Harbor Line
We enjoyed this experience even more than we thought we would as my husband was a little unsure about it from the title. The yacht was very nice with a smooth ride, comfortable seating and festive decor. There was a bathroom downstairs. The drinks were well-made, service was excellent and the live Christmas music was pleasant and not overdone. I would recommend booking a window seat for a better view as you go right by the Statue of Liberty and a few other landmarks. We did the 6pm tour in mid-December so it was cool to see all the lights at night. I would also recommend bringing cash to tip the staff.
