This was a last minute addition to our Christmas trip in December, and boy, am I glad we booked it! It was freezing outside, but the boat is nice and warm. I was worried about it being enclosed, with rough water and heat blasting, however you could barely feel the boat move. This cruise took you all up and down the NY skyline, to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty (breathtaking up close at night) and even over into the East River a little to see the Brooklyn Bridge. We had an absolute blast. The wine and beer choices were great, and very inexpensive after the first complimentary glass. The jazz band was awesome, and the views were simply breathtaking. I've been to NY several times, and this was truly the highlight of all of my trips! The only CON in my book was that you're assigned tables and you're sitting with folks you don't know. We weren't interested in meeting new people, so this proves to be a little awkward. Try to get on the boat first so that you can get the good window seats. Definitely recommend booking this trip! A+ from start to finish!

Hello, Thank you for joining us and sharing your experience. We are happy to hear that you had an overall wonderful experience on the Cocoa and Carols Cruise this Holiday Season. We do have family style seating on the boat and on our sold out trips, due to the layout, we will create a seating chart for our customers and assign seating. However on other cruises that do not hit a specific guest count we will not do assigned seating. We look forward to hosting you in the future and want to thank you again for sharing your experience and recommending us. Warmly, Classic Harbor Line

Do you want to end your day on a high note? If so, this is the cruise to book. We took the 7:30 PM Holiday Jazz Cruise and it was delightful ! Picture sitting inside a nicely appointed vessel with a glass of champagne or Spiked Hot Chocolate in hand while a jazz music plays Christmas tunes. But guess what, you are on the Hudson River and you look out the window and have some of the most amazing views ever. Camera in hand, you head outside to take some shot of the Manhattan Skyline. A great touch however, was while you are outside, they’d piped the jazz music outside on the deck so you can hear it ! Hats off to the captain/crew. While we were at the Statue of Liberty, they slowed down and took extra time so we could capture some amazing nighttime photos of the SOL and the skyline. I loved getting to meet new people who were seated at my table. I ordered an extra drink and the cost was not too high and it tasted great with the Christmas Cookies that you all provided. Thanks for giving me a memorable night – it was truly that.

Thank you for choosing us and thank you for sharing your experience and recommending us to others. We hope to have you out with us again in the future, if not here in NYC then in one of our other locations (Boston, Newport, or Key West) Warmly, Classic Harbor Line
