We (25, 61 and 1 year old) booked for a lunchtime cruise on Thanksgiving day. We were at first worried a bit because it seemed quite expensive but it was sooo worth it. Excellent service, amazing views of the statue of lib, empire state building, brooklyn bridge etc. Amazing. more

A wonderful dining experience. Great food, spectacular sailing and sightseeing. And the music and dancing was too cool!! more

I have been on the Bateaux with my husband and also with friends for special occasions. It never disappoints! The service is always very warm, personal and attentive, and it begins before you board the boat, when you are greeted and helped aboard by several crew members. As soon as you are seated, the wait staff arrives, and I have... more

I booked Bateaux New York through Goldstar.com which gave us a 50% discount on this dinner cruise which cost us $93 a person. The website clearly states that dresses and jackets are preferred.

Our 25th Anniversary was a disaster. Food was airline quality, they forgot to serve our salads, which we got after the main course. Desert was disgusting. Since last night I have stomach cramps, haven't slept all night, I hope it's not food poisoning. Take Circle Line for sightseeing and eat at a decent restaurant, it will still come out cheap. more

We went to NYC for my daughter's surprise engagement and we booked this cruise to spend the last night of our stay in NY. The weather was wonderful, so we had spectacular views of the city. We thought the food was pretty good but the atmosphere on the boat was absolutely WONDERFUL. We had a very fast paced eventful three... more

I took my mother to NYC for her 72nd birthday, and booked this dinner cruise for our last night. It was in my opinion extremely good value. When we arrived all the staff welcomed with mother with 'happy birthday'. The ship was gorgeous - spotlessly clean and very impressive. The tables were beautifully set. I had booked guaranteed window seats... more

I read a few reviews on here which might give you second thoughts about booking this so I think it's worth making clear that you will have a special evening on this cruise. The service is attentive, the food is delicious and the music pleasant. If you want a guided tour of the Hudson and surrounding areas get a tour... more
