Our group of four had a lovely time on the beautiful boat. My young niece, who gets nervous on boats, felt safe. The jazz trio were wonderful and played some holiday tunes as well as classic jazz numbers. The staff were very friendly. Stunning views of the skyline, Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridge!

We did the Holiday Jazz Cruise as part of the celebrations for my 50th birthday. The boat is stunning and sparkling clean. The staff were all very attentive especially Andrew who joined in with all our banter and kept our drink flowing. Fantastic atmosphere even though there was probably only 20 people on the trip. The Jazz band were superb and even played Happy Birthday as there was a few people who's birthdays were due. Had a brilliant time and would totally recommend.
