Everything was perfect. It was a very romantic and enjoyable evening. As soon as we were seated at our table, we were immediately greeted with a glass of champagne. The appetizers and entrées were served throughout the evening at a very good pace, allowing us to occasionally get up and go on the deck to enjoy the skyline of New York City. If we ever get back to New York, we would definitely do this again.

It was a wonderful experience. The staff was extremely efficient and professional the food choices were great and the meal was fantastic. I grew up in New York City and even as a seasoned New Yorker, I thoroughly enjoyed the skyline views. I would highly recommend this cruise, and already have, to all my friends who plan to travel to the city.

central park from top of the rock
Looking over Central Park from top of the rock. On a clear day, this spot has the best views of the city. This was September- a great time to visit not because it's not too crowded and cool enough for walking all day. Grand Central Station and the Library are well worth a visit for the non shoppers.
