My boyfriend greatly enjoys jazz music. This was a perfect Christmas gift. The music and view was great! Would definitely do it again.

We did the Holiday Jazz Cruise and it was great! The band was great and the views were incredible. The only reason I gave 4/5 is because the outside of the windows had a bunch of water spots and it prevented us from taking good pictures in the warm area—we had to go outside to take them (was in December so was slightly chilly on the water)

Hello, Thank you for joining us during the Holiday Season for a evening out on the water! In the winter months it does sometimes happen where the wind kicks up and sprays the windows with the River water. We do clean the windows each morning but sounds like earlier during the day the boat got a spray. We will make sure to pass this on to management to see if there is a time slot where we could do a touch up in the middle of the day. Thank you again for joining us and sharing your experience! We hope to see you again next year. Warmly, Classic Harbor Line

We had a great time listening to the band and singing along with the Christmas carols. The staff was very friendly and attentive.
