This is our 6th trip this season! Every one of them has been delightful. During this time of COVID and Social distancing, being out on the water in a very clean, safe environment is the best. The crews are knowledgeable and very friendly. Canā€™t recommend thus company enough!! The scenery is spectacular- I have lived in NYC for 30 years and never get tired of seeing the city by water. Always something new.
