5.00Our experience with Layla was absolutely amazing! She truly went above and beyond to take care of my mother and me during our visit to New York from LA. Layla made sure we saw all the major landmarks and took the time to make every moment special. She was incredibly polite, attentive, and provided exceptional service throughout our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! thank you, Layla, for making our visit to New York unforgettable!
Disappointed experience

1.00We did dinner cruise a year ago with Bateux and thought that what the cruise we were on , this boat was outdated and food quality and presentation was marginal for what we paid, service was below average and piers was isolated, difficult to get a taxi , would not recommend
Run Away Fast!

1.00Run! This was awful! Boat left almost 1/2 hour late so you are sitting there at dock for over one hour. Food was cold, servers scarce, had to get our own burned coffee and then of course no creamer. Bathrooms should be condemned. Awful, awful, awful!
A lovely evening experience!

4.00The meet up point for the trip is hard to find, walk along the pier!! It’s a bit chilly on board, so take warm clothing. Fabulous views, particularly of the Statue of Liberty. You get up very close it’s amazing.
I will visit again

3.00The pros: Food was delicious and service was amazing. Loved the views and the amount of time spent on the water, and stopping to see the Statue of Liberty. Loved having the live music. The cons: The ceiling in the bathroom is mirrored, so you can look up and see the person in the stall next to you. We were expecting a bit more of a luxury experience but the finishes of the dining were kitschy and basic/simple. Overall we had fun, however we may opt for a different provider for a higher end experience!
Family cruise makes for unforgettable memories! Had a fabulous time!
