    Thank you - it was my treat to family and friends, four of whom had visited New York on two previous occasions and had never done this cruise. They said it was the highlight of our four day break! I thought it was quite magical - lovely service by all.

    This was a return trip for us to New York, this time with friends to celebrate their sixtieth birthdays. We had never forgotten this dinner cruise from an earlier visit in 2000 and chose it for them for this celebration. They were just overwhelmed and have not stopped thanking us since, saying it was undoubtedly the highlight of our whole trip. For us - well, we enjoyed it even more than the first time. Simply fabulous!
