If you want to see the city skyline at night and the Statute of Liberty lit up, this is a must do. The staff was wonderful as was the cruise. The captain turns off the engines when you get to the Statute of Liberty for picture taking and just a moment of quiet and to see the 911 Memorial from this vantage point, is without a doubt, very emotional. The food was so so and my only complaint was that even after the DJ said he was encouraging requests, my husband made a song request which he has never done since we've been together and the DJ did not play his request and this cruise was a special occasion as we have been celebrating our 25th anniversary since November.
