Spectacular city views at sunset
Paulette_S, Oct 2023
This was, by far, the highlight of our trip. The crew was very helpful, and not bashful at all, when pouring our complementary drinks ;) the weather was beautiful, and provided a stunning sunset as a backdrop for the cityscape, and Statue of Liberty .
Great experience!

My son and I were punctually 30 minutes before departure time at the agreed meeting point. Unfortunately, we were not noticed at all, although we were standing directly at the jetty and several people were on / in the ship. This was not very customer-oriented and service-oriented. Only shortly before departure our harbour security guard informed the owner (thank you!) and we were invited into the boat. From that point on, however, it was a great experience! We travelled in a beautiful boat and also for a sufficiently long time first to under the Brooklyn Bridge, then back and up to directly in front of the Statue of Liberty. We stood there until everyone had enough opportunity to photograph it. Then we drove back to about the height of Colgate Clock New Jersey. There, too, we slowed down to take enough photos of the now illuminated skyline before finally heading back to the site. The timing was perfect, as we drove back from the Statue of Liberty we experienced the perfect sunset, at the same time the first lights came on in Manhattan. Thank you for this unique experience! Except for the beginning, it was an unforgettable beautiful experience, gladly again!
Best experience in New York

I surprised my husband with the sunset Manhattan cruise for a milestone birthday of his. The eve was absolutely perfect. The boat is immaculate. The crew is friendly, knowledgeable, & accommodating. We were fortunate to catch a magnificent sunset behind the Statue of Liberty and saw several other landmarks. We got great photos of the experience. My family highly recommends this excursion. Don’t miss it. Thank you!
Perfect Sail

Really enjoyed the fact that it was just a few people. No crowds! Very enjoyable and relaxing. It had been raining all afternoon but by 7:00 pm the rain was letting up and we got some great views
Great night out

Fraudulent Company
Gregory_H, Jul 2023
Your company is a fraud. You sent me a QR code with the location and time. I showed and there was no such cruise. In fact, the attendant at the doc, said that even he has told you to stop using their location. I asked for a refund and you refused. I will be sending this to my bank as fraud and reporting you to the Better Business Bureau.
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Hello Gregory, We are very sorry that you had issues with your booking and were not able to join the original cruise. It turns out that a third party booking affiliate of ours reset the meeting location of this tour to our alternate location without our knowledge. Once we discovered this glitch, a message was sent to all impacted customers to let them know where to go well in advance of the trip. We have confirmed that you have been fully refunded for this tour due to the location mistake, and it appears that you were able to attend at a later date. We are sorry for any inconvenience and hope that you were able to get a satisfactory result in the end. If you have any remaining issues to discuss, please contact caleb@classicharborline.com. Warmly, Classic Harbor Line
Perfect evening

Wonderful Crew with Mark and Conor making it a great experience. Relaxing personal experience with a small group of people was amazing. Great views of the city and relaxing music.
Well worth it! Fun boat!
Rick_S, Jun 2023
Great evening on the water. Crew was great. Directions in the add (specific address) was troublesome. But everything was great.
Wonderful views of NYC!...
Megan_P, Jun 2023
Wonderful views of NYC! Marc and Han were excellent captains. They made sure we were taken care of, and had a great music playlist!
The overall experience...
james_w, Jun 2023
The overall experience was great. From the crew to the cruise itself. It felt very personal and like i was on a boat with friends.
Fun way to view the city!
Glen_C, Dec 2022
We really enjoyed the sunset cruise. We lived on a vintage 62-foot yacht for almost 8 years so touring Lower Manhattan from a similar boat was a really fun reminder of those years. Great views of Statue of Liberty and the skyline.
Perfect boat tour with beautiful skyline
Therese_W, Sep 2022
The trip was amazing as was the captain and staff ! Definitely will do this again on my next visit. It was perfect size boat and not to many people which was perfect. Thanks again for a wonderful experience !!
Perfect sunset cruise
Ellyse_D, Sep 2022
We did this to celebrate our anniversary. This was such an amazing sunset cruise. The boat was not over crowded and had very comfortable seating. Beer, wine and champagne were available. I just wish it was 2 hours instead of 90 minutes.
Wonderful experience
Mary_M, Sep 2022
Loved it. 5 girl friends celebrating a 50th birthday party. Our crew was fabulous, efficient and fun. Just long enough so we got to see the sun set and the full moon rise.
Smooth and no hang ups.
Brian_R, Aug 2022
Captain and his mate were very accommodating to all passengers The weather and sight seeing couldn't have been much better!
Relaxing cruise at sunset
Paula_G, Aug 2022
Lovely relaxing cruise, limited people on board which made it most enjoyable to see the sights. Connor and Kate were lovely hosts. Drinks were good. A hour and half was enough time on the water.
Recommended to my friends already!
Irene_J, Jul 2022
Great tour! Beautiful experience. Coupled and families, not a party vibe. The capitán and crew were friendly and fostered a great atmosphere.
An Excellent Idea!
Daniel_G, Sep 2020
The crew was kind and attentive. I would definitely do this again! We departed and arrived on time. The marina and boat were easy to find. We had a blast!
