I am an event planner for the Hospitality Department at a New York City college. I recently had the pleasure of working with Margaret Stapleton and her wonderful team on a 4 hour cruise around NYC for our students, faculty, administration and their guests during Senior Week. She was outstanding! Professional, patient, responsive and prompt with returning all calls, emails... More

Had a photo taken next to the ship before boarding. Was told beforehand there was a no jeans and no trainers/sneaker dress code. Fine, we made the effort, as did 90%... More

I am giving this review a very low number for the simple reason that I purchased 5 dinnner cruise seats and received none. We were visiting NYC for the first time and it so happened that a deal came out on Travelzoo. I called before making the purchase to make sure they had availability. So I made a reservation. When...

We took a trip with 19 teen dancers and had a wonderful time. The food was good, views wonderful and the staff, friendly and helpful. Even the cook likes to dance! Small dance floor if you are traveling with a large group that likes to dance. Visited March 2012 More
