Amazing! - The views are amazing and the staff is friendly.
1 beverage was included, with many options (alcoholic or non-alcoholic).
They also stop near the Statue of Liberty and offer you the chance to take photos of yourself.
We had a great time!

Great experience! - This is one of the best river cruises. Fun music, great atmosphere. Small group. Lovely boat. It was great because you get to experience sunset, and the lights. A beverage is included. We had the cheese plate to go with and it was really tastey. Highly recommend.

Premium Cruise Experience - We'd pre-booked the "Bright Lights" cruise in advance but a few weeks before our booking date, we were contacted directly by the supplier to inform us that our cruise had been changed to an "Evening Jazz Cruise". We were given the option to change if this didn't suit us but we were happy to go ahead with the Jazz Cruise.
This was the 3rd time I've been on a Classic Harbour Line cruise and the first time for my 2 friends. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. The boat is spacious, clean and comfortable. You are assigned your own table for your group. The staff are all super friendly and helpful. The service is exceptional. You get 1 drink included with your ticket and can purchase more from the on-board bar.
The jazz band was very good and provided a lovely atmosphere as we cruised the river and took in the beautiful NYC skyline all lit up at night. The highlight as always being the close up photo opportunities you get of the statue of liberty.
I cannot recommend this cruise highly enough. Classic Harbour line provide a premium cruise experience that is a must try for all visitors to NYC.

Fun Boat ride in NYC - Very romantic. Great to do in the summer when the weather is good. The lights are bright in NYC and make for great backdrops for pictures. Even goes near the Statue of Liberty.
