Lovely tour of an hour and a half with great views of NYC. Very helpful and friendly crew. Second time I’ve taken friends and family and would do it again. Most enjoyable!

A very nice experience. The captain and other members of the crew were very friendly. We loved having a drink included in the fee, with the option to purchase additional ones. We saw other boats that looked like people were crowded in like sardines. Our boat had a small number of people, so it was easy to move around, and service was quick. I also like that seats were assigned, so there was no need to hurry to find "the best" one.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED We were lucky to go on the cruise to see the tall ships visiting New York for USA’s 250th birthday. I have only positive comments to make about Classic Harbor line. From all the employees, the service, the boat, the cruise itself, to the knowledgable tour guide. A perfect afternoon

My wife and I had a great time on Jul 5th sailing past all of the tall shops, naval vessels and monuments on the ManhattanII. The crew was terrific on the 115pm trip and our guide (sorry I don’t remember her name) gave us a splendid description of the ships and nyc history for almost 3 hours. A wonderful trip.
David, thank you for booking a sail with us and taking some time to provide your valuable feedback. We are elated to hear that you and your wife enjoyed your July 5th sailing aboard the Manhattan II.

Timing wasn’t great: it was Fleet Week but none of the “tall ships” were there except one, and it wasn’t displaying its sails. The rest weren’t expected till days later. I didn’t know that when booking. Complimentary beverage was great: choice of beer, wine, soft drinks. Service was OK: first drink was immediate, but after that, we had to flag down our wait staff. Cleanup was great. Boat was small (lots of rocking on a calm-sea day), but it took us from Chelsea Piers, up to Intrepid, back down around Manhattan and Jersey coastlines, around to the Manhattan Bridge and back. Nice, long, 3-hour tour. Narration was very informative the entire 3 hours.
Thank you for booking a tour with us and taking some time to provide your valuable feedback. We are happy to hear the narration was informative throughout, the complimentary beverages were enjoyed, and the route covered so much of the waterfront. We understand the timing with Fleet Week was disappointing, and we appreciate you sharing that. We hope to have another chance to welcome you aboard! - Classic Harbor Line
Great views and friendly staff. Be prepared as the inside of the boat does not have any air flow. In the summer it is like a greenhouse and so we spent most of the cruise outside to get a breeze. Otherwise, really nice and exactly what we expected.
Jessica, thank you for booking a cruise with us and taking some time to provide your valuable feedback. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the scenic views and that our friendly crew contributed to a pleasant experience, and we appreciate your insights about the temperature. We're not immediately sure which trip you were on, but we should note that many of our vessels have air conditioning and/or windows that can be opened, and it should have been possible to get air flow to cool down the cabin. We are sorry about that aspect of the cruise and will check in with our crews to keep a closer eye on this, and we hope to see you again soon! - Classic Harbor Line
Your staff was very personable. Your guide extremely knowledgeable as well. Your boat was very clean. We loved the whole experience. Thank you for all you do to help outsiders get to know about NYC/Manhattan Island.
Thank you for booking a tour with us and taking some time to provide your valuable feedback.

We're thrilled you appreciated the cleanliness of our boat and loved the whole experience exploring the waters around Manhattan, and we hope to have another opportunity to host you on the water! - Classic Harbor Line
The cruise to and around the Statue of Liberty was wonderful and a great way to see the statue up close. The captain and crew were knowledgeable and professional. This is a small yacht without a lot of people, which was nice.
