The tour was nice; however, it was crowded and noisy! I wasn't sure what to expect, but it seemed this was just the warm up to let everyone off to keep drinking after the fact. The DJ was mediocre, but all in all, the nicest thing about the experience was the sunset on the water because the waterfalls were too far away to appreciate. Okay to go once, but never again.
great boat ride for any warm evening.
music little to loud
i bought tickets to this for my mother & aunt when they were visiting me. they loved the boat cruise-the only thing is they said there was no food but chips and pretzels, so dont go hungry.
It was an enjoyable sunset cruise around the south end of Manhattan. The happy hour special was a six bottle bucket of Corona for the price of five (no big deal). However, each passenger was given one free drink ticket, and that wasn't expected since it wasn't listed in the inclusions for the cruise. Music and dancing aboard the modern vessel was geared strictly to the younger set, and there were mostly young adults aboard. The cruise sailed from under the Brooklyn Bridge to the Statue of Liberty with good views (including the city lights after dark).
great time- the DJ added a nice environment and coronas at $4 each really made it sweet!
1.5 Hour cruise to Statue of Liberty and back. Mostly a well dressed after work crowd, not many tourists. Bar was good, only the trip was a little too short. Totally worth it for the Goldstar price!
Could have stayed a little longer near the falls. Also some snacks to buy would have been nice.
Drinks were a decent price - the best deal is the bucket of 6 for $20.00. The trip went around to see "the Waterfalls" and the Statue of Liberty - had a nice night for it - got a bit cold once the sun set - so bring a jacket.
I absolutely LOVED this event! My boyfriend and I signed up for a "date night" and it exceeded our expectations. The sights were just breathtaking- the waterfalls, the Statue of Liberty- just wonderful! We even met a sweet couple that was here from out of town and ended the night with a great dinner afterwards!
I really enjoyed it. It was absolutely awesome!
The views were amazing and the boat was not overcrowded. There were several bars on board so it was easy to get drinks for everyone. The DJ and music were a little cheesy but it was worth enduring for the views.
I was pleasantly surprised at how nice and spacious the boat was, despite the huge line I never felt crowded. There was a dj, plenty of seating and space along the railing. It didn't go all the way around manhattan, but swung by the Statue of Liberty and we caught a great sunset (the boat turned so everyone got a view). The bar could've been better stocked, no Kaluah.
I really liked it and it also helped that it was a nice day. It was short and sweet ...highly recommended
The event and boat was enjoyable
fabulous night even though storms prevailed.....
The free drink was a nice perk. It was good for a domestic beer or a well drink. They had a nice selection of beers so that was fine with me. The $20 buckets of Corona were clutch. The bartenders were quite nice and pretty fast considering we were on a boat.
It was a fun ride with some good sights and a nice sunset. We didn't really check out the DJ/dance floor at all cause it was such a nice day. You could hear the music though, it was a bit outdated.
Overall most people in our party had a good time and I would go again, but only through Goldstar. $22 or whatever full price is, is a bit steep for an hour and a half and a free (house) drink.
Hold on when they dock!
This is a short cruise around downtown Manhattan and other parts of Manhattan & NJ. You get to see the waterfalls under the Brooklyn Bridge. The cruise was nice, but the boat rocks too much. This is a cruise for people who like to go on cruises. This is a great way to spend an early evening on a nice spring/summer day.
Great time! Really relaxing with good music! Drink selection could have been improved but overall had a great time!
It was a great price for a great cruise. They had buckets of beer (6 coronas) for $20. The view was amazing!! Cheryl, Maspeth
