Quiet Cruising.

This climate change and Manhattan architecture yacht cruise is a heavily narrated tour experience. We recommend it for those seeking an informative, exciting, and content-rich trip. Guests must keep their conversations at a reasonable level to ensure that all can hear the narration. For guests looking for a more social experience, please consider our sunset cruises, day sails, city lights cruises, or one of our other non-narrated events. This is NOT for children under 12. For guests with children under 12 please consider our Statue & Skyline tours, day sails, or any other minimally narrated daytime event.

• The tour does not guarantee a full circumnavigation of Manhattan. On rare occasions, the Spuyten Duyvil train bridge is inoperable and cannot open for us to pass through. This is not known until our tour is underway. River closures may also occur for a number of reasons. There are no refunds for tours that cannot fully circumnavigate. We accommodate such cases with a tour that features a double backing of the route and further details of the waterfront sites.
• Gratuity is not included; however, if you purchased the ‘Groups of 9’ or more ticket type, a 10% gratuity is automatically applied.
• Food is not part of the inclusion. You can purchase light fare options in advance with your tickets or onboard.
