The NY Premier Dinner Cruise was an excellent experience and I will highly recommend it to family and friends. I'd say that this cruise gives you some of NYC's best views from the water and I loved it.
The staff was very courteous, the service was good and to top it all, the band on board was the best. They kept the crowd entertained from the minute they started playing and till the end.
Nothing about the cruise felt rushed, we did the 7PM cruise and the views were splendid. The food was good, a three course meal and good choices of drinks to pick from too. I highly recommend this experience.

A lovely evening
Scott_S, June 2023
A lovely evening cruise of the Manhattan shore/skyline. Good food and drink. The views, service and entertainment were excellent.
Perfect for all occasions!
Madison_R, June 2023
Had a wonderful time on this cruise! Late spring/early summer is perfect as you get to catch the sunset on the water. The staff was so friendly, the food was yummy, and the entertainers were top notch! I treated my boyfriend to this to celebrate his promotion, and everyone on board was having a good time - young and old.
Nice Evening

Crandell_W, June 2023
This dinner Cruise was amazing. The waitress that served me took my order, was friendly, she brought me everything I ordered & with a smile. I sat near a couple who was celebrating their 51 wedding anniversary so I was able to share in their special event. The captain spoke with me on more then one occasion. I had a fantastic time.

Extraordinary Evening
michael_k, May 2023
An exceptionally well planned event, friendly, polite staff. The food was delectable and on par with the evening.
We where a group of three on a return home from a sailing vacation and our wardrobe was consistent as such. Get dresses up for this evening or don’t, you’ll feel like a million bucks.
