Very beautiful! Tour is definitely recommended. Champagne was really delicious, if you can't drink alcohol or prefer something else, there's also wine, water, juices, etc. The first glass is included in the price, you have to pay for other drinks. The two of us paid $47 for 4 glasses of champagne but it's worth it with such a view and beautiful atmosphere. We had a great view of the Statue of Liberty, very close and you could really enjoy it up close. We had great weather and a beautiful sunset. Crew is very nice and friendly.

Fabulous sunset cruise

We loved our trip on Harbor Line America 2.0 - staff are really friendly, the views you get from the water are incredible. We had a perfect night weather wise, and when we got a little chilly the staff brought out blankets for us all. Drinks flowed for the 2 hours. Would highly recommend this trip to see New York like no other way.

Super nice evening trip - a terrific experience!

We had perfect conditions - it was just great! The crew was super friendly and it was nice that the sails were actually hoisted and not just driven with the engine. Although it says "Adults only", young people can come along. The trip lasts 2 hours and you sail with the beautiful schooner to the Liberty and back. Can only recommend this experience!
