Beautiful boat and very hospitable staff. Enjoyed the experience of seeing NYC from the water. interesting commentary. Champagne and cheese was a nice addition.

The cruise was relaxing, however the wine was small amounts and the cheese platter was nothing more than a token gesture with the cheese so small it was impossible to get enough to taste what type you were eating.

We enjoyed this cruise. However, there were some things that could have been better. The amount of cheese given for 2 people should have been doubled, or at least 50% more. It was not much at all. We paid extra for the hummus, olives, and fruit; even with these, it was not a whole lot of food for the cost. The champagnes were fine. I did not like that we had to share a table. When I inquired in advance, I was told that our party of two would be at a private table. However, what that looked like was a large table with a clear glass divider and two others at the table. Not at all private, and actually somewhat awkward. If the glass had been frosted, there would have been some semblance of privacy... but it was clear. So you had to do the friendly and greet your neighbors. In our case, it was a nice mother/daughter pair like my daughter and me. But I had zero interest in chatting the night away with strangers - I am an introvert and that is exhausting. So no, the tables are not necessarily private. Also, while on the one hand I appreciated the camaraderie and familiarity with which the primary host and wine server chatted with the passengers, on the other hand, it was a bit much. I guess it is a fine line between too aloof and too chatty, so that is tough to navigate I am sure. The view of the Statue of Liberty was wonderful from the water, and views of the city were equally stunning. I would do this again, don't get me wrong, but I would have liked to have gone in with a better understanding. So there it is. Hopefully somebody finds this helpful.
