4.00The views were stunning and I would certainly recommend this trip to anybody. We both had an amazing time and it’s truly a trip to remember. From just a few minutes after departing the views continued to improve throughout. The Hudson River was an amazing place to view the neighboring cities from. The daytime evening hours provided a view of the city that I truly didn’t expect. The congested motion of the inner and outer city seem to disappear and what was left was a calming representation of hundreds of years of development for your eyes to rest on. During the later evening hours, as the sun gave away, the city illuminated itself in stellar fashion. Overall, this was a great way to celebrate our 20th anniversary!!! If I had any complaints at all they would be the few following. We made the reservation with ample time, and my only request was that we be near a window and this request was not accommodated, though half of the boat tables and seats weren’t utilized. This was not only upsetting but a little surprising. ? My meal stated online I had to pay nearly $100 extra for. I planned on having the steak as my main course as I just don’t have much of a pallet for fish and shellfish, but the steak listed was an additional amount. My last issue really wasn’t a big deal, but I believe many people would think it should be. It was that our waiter would disappear for 10 to 20 minutes at a time. At one point, we wanted bread and new drinks, but he was nowhere to be seen for over 20 minutes. When we asked another server passing by for bread and drinks, they said “sure thing”and simply never returned.

5.00Beautiful experience and would recommend again. Only thing that bothered me was they charged me $10 for water. After paying as much as we did for dinner... there was nothing to drink included?🙃

1.00We bought 7 Tickets for our family. At Boarding the tickets were scanned and after told, that the youngest 12y.o. daughter is not accepted because of wearing dark Jeans. There is no chance to get a other dress in 15min or leave the kid behind. So we had to skip the boattour and there is no reaction after my emails how to handle the situation after loosing 1700 USD. Also other people around us got the same way.
