The food is secondary to the history lesson. Learning about the city and how it has changed was really interesting. Combining the food and how it evolved with the changing local culture was just the cherry on top!

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Jan 22, 2021 By: Rich K

The tour guide was great . We would have just like to have a choice of dessert at each locations rather than one predetermined dessert . We did have a choice of dessert at 2 of the 6 locations

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Stacia! Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! I have passed that note along to our partners. They will certainly take that into consideration!

My girlfriend and I went on the Hell’s Kitchen dessert tour with our guide Kelley this past weekend and could not have had a better experience. Kelley was knowledgeable about the restaurants and their history along with the 6 desserts we sampled. The variety in desserts was great and they were all delicious! This was a fun, unique, and tasty way to explore Hell’s Kitchen! We plan to come back for another Sugartooth tour!!

New York Craft Cocktail Tour New York Date Night Nov 27, 2019 By: Corinne W

As people who live in New York, we went into this going in and thinking that we’d tour some of the greatest hits in the East Village from a cocktail standpoint, which we’ve been to before. We were, however, pleasantly surprised that this tour took us to 3 places we’ve never been, and a couple that we didn’t even know existed! Nice to play tourist in your own town sometimes.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Corinne, That's what we love to hear! Our guides love to surprise locals with hidden gems right in their own backyard, and I'll be sure to pass your compliments along to them. I'm thrilled that this tour exceeded your expectations - there's really nothing quite like exploring your own city through a different perspective! Cheers to good drinks and good times! Best, Inah

Tenements, Tales & Tastes of the Lower East Side New York Date Night Oct 25, 2019 By: Lin B

Bruce Northam was our guide extraordinaire. It's obvious he has written books on touring and lives in the area we walked: we received more than the average information as we moved from block to block. I want to bring my husband back on this tour and hope we get Bruce again. The food was varied and delicious and don't worry about the calories, you'll walk it off! (Amazing that all the different nationalities are represented within blocks of each other.)

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Lin, That sounds like an amazing way to spend an afternoon in NYC! There's so much to see and hear and taste, and what better way to experience it than with such a knowledgeable guide. I'll be sure to pass your kind words along to Bruce, I know he'll be just as excited to hear that you so enjoyed your time with him. And the best compliment is that you found the tour so enjoyable that you want to experience it again with your husband. Let us know when you feel like exploring the city even more! Cheers, Inah

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Oct 25, 2019 By: Stephanie C

Lovely two hour lunch cruise from Chelsea Pier to Brooklyn Bridge and back, stopping near Statue of Liberty along the way back . Food was ok, not amazing but not terrible. Service was good. Overall a relaxing and enjoyable experience. Would recommend.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi there Stephanie! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! It is so wonderful to hear that you had a great time taking in the beautiful sites and views of the city!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Sep 29, 2019 By: Devon G

My husband and i went on the Food tour Saturday. We have never taken one of these and had no idea what to expect. What a great day! Adam was a great tour guide with lots of local lore to share. It was fun taste testing at the different venues, ending with cupcakes. What more could you ask! would definitely recommend.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Devon, Thank you for letting us be a part of your first food tour, we're honored! I'll be sure to let Adam know how much fun you had on your time with him. It definitely sounds like a great way to spend a Saturday. Let us know when you feel like exploring another city! Cheers, Inah

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Sep 05, 2019 By: Evan D

1st: Get there early. Lines form quick, so some of the best looking/picture taking spots get taken. Other than that the crew is awesome. They answer questions, chat and because they are having a good time you are. Lastly you get some great shots of the city. Between the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn, and the Manhattan skyline was a fantastic date night.

Matt was fantastic. It was a great tour.

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 12, 2019 By: Tom N

The boat was extremely warm with no preparations made for the heat. Constantly uncomfortable the entire trip. The service was inconsistent and the food was far from gourmet. Berry jam on a SYSCO cheese cake is not very interesting. I suppose this is an elite experience for tourists.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi there Tom, Thank you for sharing your experience with us! I'm very sorry to hear that your cruise was a bit toasty. It looks like the temperature that day was in the high 90's that day! I spoke with our partners regarding the temperature on the vessel. They let us know that while the boat is climate-controlled, the weather, coupled with the amount of sunlight through all-glass exterior, may have made it challenging for the air conditioning to keep up. In terms of the service and food, we are sorry to hear that expectations were not met. Our partners are usually so wonderful, it truly sounds as though the inconsistencies were the result of a bit of an off-day. Please note that we have placed a $50.00 certificate in your Cloud 9 Living account for future use to reconcile any missed expectations! We look forward to getting you out on another adventure soon. Best, Sophia

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Aug 05, 2019 By: Janet L

Our guide was fun and very knowledgeable. He's a NYC lifer, so he knows his stuff! I'm a picky eater and vegetarian, and every food choice selected was perfect and delicious! I loved seeing Bob Dylan's hangout, the Friend's apartment, understanding NY's gentrification situation, and the walks weren't too long or tiring. Oh, the cupcakes!!!!!! Yum!

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Janet, That's fantastic! I'll definitely be sure to pass your compliments along to the guide. And wow - that certainly sounds like you spanned a ton of New York history, along with the so much of its foodie scene. Cheers to good food in a good city! Best, Inah

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Jul 03, 2019 By: Deborah P

It is hot waiting in line so stay in the shade and don’t forget sun screen. There were ppl who wore dresses which blew away. We really enjoyed our cruise and we avoided a storm which made it really exciting. Loved the views and the watching the workings of the sails. We got really close to the statue. We left late because they did wait for someone running late even though they advertised they will not wait. Then we had to get a tow bc of the wind to get out of the harbor. Once we were on the water we loved it. They have us a drink bc of the wait but then they never came back to get your empty can. So we were trying to take pics while holding the drinks, awkward. The kids loved moving up front to king of the world it. They did take our pics when we asked them to which was nice. We had an eventful time because there was a storm in the distance but we enjoyed it. Maybe if the water was smoother you could enjoy drinks but we really didn’t take advantage of that. But to wrap up, it was a super fun time, awesome way to see the statue and wonderful views of the city. We are so glad we did this experience!

Unbelievable! A week later and my husband and I still can’t stop talking about how much fun the lesson was. All of the instructors were amazing. We weren’t totally sure what to expect but they were so confident in us and explained everything thoroughly step by step to ease our nerves. We would do this again in a heartbeat!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Mar 22, 2019 By: Paige H

It was fun, but as a native New Yorker, he brought us to a lot of places we've already been. We were hoping to find some gems, but ended up at some basic spots. When my friend asked our guide why we went to this specific bagel shop, he said it was because it was on the way, no other reason. It was fine and would be more fun for out-of-towners!

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Paige, Thank you for taking the time to write in about your experience and for your honest feedback. We truly appreciate it as we can only improve from it. I know that our guides strive to impress locals especially, and it sounds like we fell short of it on this tour. I'll definitely pass your comments on to our tour partner as I know they're always looking to do better as well. Warm Regards, Inah

New York Craft Cocktail Tour New York Date Night Feb 22, 2019 By: Sarah A

Super informative and fun. Loves how it was a smaller group, made it easier to move from bar to bar and hear about the history. Definitely worth the money since you get 3 full cocktails. Learning the history behind the bars and cocktails was great too.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Sarah, I'm happy to hear you had such a great time! A little history and tasty cocktails sure make for a fun night out. Cheers to fun new memories in NYC! Warm Regards, Inah

Carroll Gardens Food Tour New York Date Night Oct 23, 2018 By: Sandy M

We can't say enough good things about our experience on the Carroll Gardens Food Tour from Urban Adventures. John, our guide, was the PERFECT host and tour guide. He was pleasant and very knowledgable about ALL of Brooklyn, especially the well chosen stops on our food tour. On the way to each stop, we learned interesting facts about the area and individual homes and businesses. We had planned on returning home after the tour, but John recommended places to see and and things to do, so we ended up staying the entire day enjoying exploring Brooklyn.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Sandy, That's wonderful! And I'm glad John's suggestions prompted you to explore Brooklyn, really make a day of it. I hope you found some great new spots to return to! Cheers, Inah

Brewery Tour in Brooklyn New York Date Night Sep 21, 2018 By: Maxine M

I was expecting a tasting from different breweries and not a walk around the neighborhood of what buildings used to be here

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Thank you for bringing this to our attention and I'm sorry to hear that the tour wasn't what you were expecting. While the description speaks to the historical aspects of the experience, I understand that the title could emphasize this further. Therefore, I've forwarded your comments to our product team to address this, so thank you. I do hope you were still able to learn something new about the history of the neighborhood and of brewing in Brooklyn and enjoyed the beer too! Please note that I've placed $25 in your Cloud 9 Living account for use towards another experience.

Olivia was our tour guide and she was very knowledgeable about the city and the food was very delicious. It was also very nice that our group size was only a group of 4.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

That's so great to hear! As Urban Adventures runs tours so frequently, chances of being a smaller group are pretty good and I'm glad you could have a more exclusive experience.

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Sep 04, 2018 By: Betsy B

Sweet friendly tour guide. The dessert stops were picked more based on story, especially connection to NYC theater, and location than for quality. They were fine, but only one or two were memorable. They also are not New York specific other than existing here. How do you have a NYC dessert tour with no cheesecake? A lack of information about the food and dishes themselves other than at one stop where we happened to catch the owner. I would not recommend this tour unless you are a tourist wanting to get a glimpse of a neighborhood eating some okay sweets. It was nice that the tours are just small groups. It was just us and one other couple.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 04, 2018 By: Jackie G

Food was good but alittle too spicy- waistaff was very attentitve- What was extremely disturbing is that from our table at the end of the cruise we watched the waiters throw out all the uneaten food from the buffet when CLEARLY this could have been donated to the many shelters/food pantries etc in Manhattan instead of being dumped in the garbage

Tenements, Tales & Tastes of the Lower East Side New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Christine M

This walking tour was both informative and educational. The nice extra was being able to taste a few of the different traditional foods of the area. The amount of people on the tour (12) was perfect. You were able to hear the guide and yet capture the entire experience. The pace of the tour was appropriate and the guide was full of interesting fact and very knowledgeable on the subject matter. He encouraged questions from the people on his tour.

We had a great time! The service was excellent, go for the open bar package!

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Lindsay S

We had a wonderful experience. The weather was delightful, the views were breathtaking, and the crew was totally professional. We will certainly re-book another cruise next summer! It was such a great date night.

Matt was the best, we really had a great time. Tour guides can be weird, but Matt was super cool and approachable, not to mention knowledgeable. Five star experience!

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Daniel C

Dionna was great! She was high-energy, super well informed, and easy to talk to. Loved the stops on this tour, Dionna showed us a lot of places I definitely wouldn't have found on my own.

very very pleasant

Excellent food. Really nice and thoughtful staff. Views were fab. Even gave us a complimentary bouquet of flowers (on honeymoon) - this little touch really did make our trip.

NYC Dessert Tour New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Danielle E

Delicious fun! Our tour guide Dionna was wonderful, very informative :)

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Leanne B

Great tour, guide was very knowledgeable. We live in the area and it was great playing tourist and learning new spots.

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Pamela R

what a wonderful time and experience. The day was promising rain so we weren't thrilled. But after going we saw that even if it rained the luncheon would have still be great. food was great. wait staff was more than accommodating they were friendly and thoughtful! i had a mamose and saluted them! i would recommend this and a great gift. i got it as a gift and was thrilled

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Charlene L

This was such a wonderful experience! The food was the best Ive had in New York and the service absolutely outstanding. I highly recommend this cruise for great pictures, great food and even some dancing!

Excellent service and experience!

Trapeze Lesson New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Mollie M

We had the absolute best time trying trapeze this past weekend! The staff and all of the other participants were extremely friendly and supportive, and I couldn't believe how quickly we picked things up. We would love to go again and keep working on new tricks!

NYC Dessert Tour New York Date Night Aug 28, 2018 By: Bruce K

The "dessert tour" was enjoyable. It was basically a tasting at 6 different places that sell different types of desserts. Each site's choice were somewhat limited as to size & selection as part of this "package." The tour guide we had, Brendan, was excellent. Informative, knowledgeable, & loud & clear in his presentation.

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Jun 13, 2018 By: Jessica C

Delicious and varied desserts with an amazing tour guide who was very knowledgeable about ALL things to do with New York in general not just our desserts. The staff at each place were friendly and the food was amazing. We only wish that we'd taken the tour at the beginning of our trip rather than the end as we found some amazing gems along the tour not only for desserts but for all sorts of yummy food.

Brewery Tour in Brooklyn New York Date Night Jun 13, 2018 By: Melinda W

We had a great time on tour but this tour contained a lot of history about the neighborhood which we weren't expecting when we signed up. This is a history and brewery tour.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Jun 04, 2018 By: Kelly A

Ian was fantastic! Being from NJ, we take our trips to NYC for granted - we had no clue of the history we learned. The food selections were definitely THE BEST!

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jun 04, 2018 By: Joanne R

We had a fabulous time. It was a great experience, everyone was polite.

Tall Ship Sailing Experience New York Date Night Jun 04, 2018 By: Domenico C

NYC Pizza, Beer and History Tour New York Date Night May 07, 2018 By: Timothy M

Really enjoyed seeing the neighborhood and finding great pizza locations. Adam was a great host.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

I'm glad to hear you had a good time! Let me know if you ever want to explore a new neighborhood! Cheers! Jennifer

NYC Craft Brewery Tour New York Date Night May 07, 2018 By: Taryn A

would recommend that the cadence changes to have pizza after the second brewery, not after the first. we felt that the pizza stop really dragged out the tour, and also the pizza was not that great. we also suggest that the tour has seating at the breweries, understand these are tight spaces, but think it is a reasonable suggestion for the tour to arrange.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Taryn, Thank you so much for taking the time to write in! I will send along your feedback to the tour providers to make sure that they are continually improving upon their tours. I hope you and your guest were still able to have a nice time! Be sure to let me know if you ever want to get out on a new adventure! Cheers, Jennifer

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Apr 02, 2018 By: Kenneth P

Ian was awesome! He really knew his stuff and kept us laughing and entertained the whole time. All of the food was to die for and the history was very interesting. We would defiantly recommend this tour and guide to others.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hi Corella, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the tour! I hope you were able to find some new favorite spots you can visit again. Be sure to let me know if you ever want to get out on another adventure! Best, Jennifer

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Mar 28, 2018 By: Harshad C

Really good experience for the price you pay. It was great for a romantic lunch with a beautiful view of NYC skyline from the river. Food and service were totally worth it. Got some great pictures close to the statue of liberty. A good choice if you want to do something different with your loved one.

Response from Virgin Experience Gifts

Hey Nyshadam, Hope your week is off to a great start! That's wonderful to hear that the two of you enjoyed your experience on the water. Even better that you took some great pictures to remember the day. I'll pass your kind words along to the chefs and crew. Thanks for taking the time to write in. Enjoy your week! Best, Brooke

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jul 21, 2017 By: Kate R

The Bateaux Luncheon Excursion is a very pleasant way to spend an afternoon. Just be sure you are not expecting palatable food. The main course was quite interesting. I asked the waitress what the stuffing was in the chicken and she had no idea. She went to inquire and came back and advised it was potato. I tried to eat it, but it was impossible. The chicken was overcooked -- in fact completely dried out. The stuffing was simply mashed potatoes with some spices. I could not and did not eat it. Accompanying the chicken were about 12 thin, tasteless green beans. My party of four women were among the last to leave the boat. I forgot my hat, which was a very large straw brimmed sun hat -- which had La Vie En Rose inked on in a light pink. About an hour and a half after we left the boat, I called the number I could find and was told nothing could be done. I asked for the number that would connect me to the NY office by the boat -- I was given a number which took me right back to the call center. No one seemed to care about helping me. I was told Lost & Found will be open on Monday and would be in touch. Would I go again, NO. Not because of the boat or the food, but because of the indifference about helping me get my hat back.

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Jul 13, 2017 By: Chiara S

The sail was a beautiful relaxing experience. We didn't realize that it was more of a Statue of Liberty tour, however, it was great! Thanks!

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Jul 06, 2017 By: Daniel N

Corey was an amazing tour guide, and we were fortunate to have him all for our party of two. Excellent experience overall and fascinating conversations along the tour. Many thanks!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Jul 06, 2017 By: Deborah R

My husband and I had a wonderful day exploring the West Village with our fun group of 16 people led by our very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful guide Cherie Davis! The food was delicious and a nice variety. We look forward to doing it again and will recommend it to our friends. Thank you.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Jun 27, 2017 By: Rick T

This tour was extremely interesting. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Food was delicious and a great variety of cuisines. I would definitely recommend this tour.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jun 27, 2017 By: Nicola M

We had the premiere package and our drinks order wasn't taken until 45-50 minutes into the two-hour cruise after we had eaten. We didn't even have water. We also never received our champagne glasses. Very disappointing.

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Jun 21, 2017 By: Lauren S

We went on the sweet tooth dessert tour and it was amazing! It gave us the opportunity to try desserts we normally wouldn't order, in places we probably wouldn't have found on our own! Every single dessert we tried was the best thing we ever tasted until we went to the next destination! I would most definitely recommend this tour to anyone who love dessert!!

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jun 21, 2017 By: Jim B

Great lunch cruise on NYC's Hudson and East Rivers. Accommodating staff, delicious food stylishly-presented, and a comfortable view of the NY and NJ skylines. The only thing lacking was sunshine, for which the crew apologized and compensated with freshly baked chocolate chip cookies as we disembarked.

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Jun 08, 2017 By: Amanda C

We are local New Yorkers, not visiting tourists, and we very much enjoyed this sailing experience. It is a beautiful view to see the city and the Statue of Liberty from the harbor while being on a sail boat instead of a crowded ferry. The experience was relaxing, the crew and captain were fun and engaging, and the onboard bar allowed for a nice glass of wine. We would highly recommend this sail and would consider gifting it to friends as well. Great for couples, families with kids, or a group of friends.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Apr 26, 2017 By: Howard S

The tour was great! Everything worked out as planned from the moment the booking was made, until we bade the guide goodbye. I can highly recommend this tour.

Lower East Side Food Tour New York Date Night Apr 26, 2017 By: Elaine B

My daughter and I went on a previous food tour in the West Village with a different guide. We enjoyed the Lower East Side Food Tour far more, which we attribute to Frank. He was personable, upbeat, efficient, enthusiastic and informative. A wonderful time.

Midtown Sights and Bites Tour New York Date Night Apr 18, 2017 By: Tracy B

Brian was a great guide. We enjoyed our time with him, and he showed us lots of behind-the-scenes parts of New York.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Feb 07, 2017 By: David C

Very pleasant and educational/entertaining afternoon. It was 3 hours of walking through historical areas of Greenwich Village (West Village I learned) while a friendly, informed and patient tour guide did her thing. The food stops were fascinating and gave us plenty of nourishment (not sure about calorie intake, but the 3 hours of walking made up for it). Highly recommend.

NYC Pizza, Beer and History Tour New York Date Night Jan 17, 2017 By: Chris C

Our tour guide, Ian, was excellent --- informative, charismatic and funny. He really made the entire tour a real joy and and unforgettable experience. I would definitely recommend any of his tours and any Cloud 9 Living tour, and cannot wait for our next tour in the future!

Carroll Gardens Food Tour New York Date Night Jan 13, 2017 By: Philip C

Joshua was a great guide, full of knowledge and happy to expand on any topic that we touched on. He had organized 8 stops I think, each of which included a sample or two of locally produced foods/drinks. It was a freezing January day in NY. We didn't notice it with the constant flow of information and the stops. Time very well spent. Thank you.

Tenements, Tales & Tastes of the Lower East Side New York Date Night Nov 17, 2016 By: Mike C

Brian went well beyond expectations as a tour guide. Great insights and energy level, also enjoyed the smaller group size.

Brewery Tour in Brooklyn New York Date Night Nov 14, 2016 By: Kathleen K

Interesting brewery history tour. I should have done more research beforehand. Also an interesting diverse group. I'd almost go again, but there are so many offerings we should try another. Recommended tour the following day.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Nov 07, 2016 By: Vanessa G

Our reservation was upgraded to the premier package, but when we arrived we were not seated by a window. After speaking to two staff members, we were seated by a window and asked for the champagne and the keepsake flutes. The waiter was more than accommodating and also gave us each a drink on the house. The food was great, and the staff was excellent. My husband I had a wonderful time.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Nov 03, 2016 By: Libby K

Ian (our guide) was great: knowledgeable, enthusiastic, friendly, and accommodating. Even having lived in NYC a long time, I learned some things about Greenwich Village (as well as finding some delectable eateries) I hadn't known.

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Oct 26, 2016 By: Denise M

The lunch cruise was spectacular. Lunch was delicious and staff very friendly.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Oct 21, 2016 By: Robert B

My wife and I had an unbelievable time. We were very pleased with our experience and will definitely be back for another tour.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 26, 2016 By: Nicola M

The ticket desk didn't have our group of 4 down as a premiere package and we had to wait while on board for the server to speak with management. We were not given a window seat or the arrival package that we were expecting. Overall the cruise was excellent, except for the hiccup on arrival.

Tall Ship Jazz Sail New York Date Night Sep 22, 2016 By: Carlos C

It was really great. The jazz band was excellent, the ambiance was brilliant, and the sights were impressive.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 22, 2016 By: Charles B

Pulled away from dock at 12:20 and back at1!:40. Hardly 2 hours. Food was mediocre.

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 02, 2016 By: Vito O

Cancelled our reservation twice because not enough tickets were sold.

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Aug 29, 2016 By: Roz W

Excellent from beginning to end!!!

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 29, 2016 By: Elizabeth P

Everyone on the boat was very nice, but the service was slow and the air conditioning was not working properly. It was a 90 degree day, so it was extremely hot and uncomfortable. I actually felt faint and nauseous due to the heat and being on the water. It was not a good experience at all unfortunately.

Brooklyn Navy Yard Tour New York Date Night Jul 21, 2016 By: Amy Y

The bus tour of the Brooklyn Navy Yard was very interesting. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the actual tour, much more history, civil engineering, and subjects of local interest. He was an excellent speaker, and I could hear and understand every word he spoke. The historical photographs he showed us of the Navy Yard enhanced our views on the ground considerably. The starting point for the tour, Building 92, was a great destination in itself. It is a nicely done exhibit of the Navy Yard, past and present. I want to spend some more time there in the future.

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jul 18, 2016 By: JEFFREY D

This was fun, the food on the cruise was top notch. Our waiters were very friendly. Some of the servers handing out rolls and salads could have cared less, but they weren't impolite. The piano player wasn't that great, simple background music without the banter and improvised song parodies would have been better. Boat left and returned on time, everything was clean. Parking at the Piers is expensive: place on 22nd was $25 for the time we were there. This would have been better if we planned more time or other activities in the City. We spent a lot of time driving from CT just for lunch. One tip: know the name of the boat -- Pier 64 gets you close, but there are several tours in the area.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jul 12, 2016 By: Stacey S

I got this as a gift for my husband. It was a great experience. There was really nothing negative about it. It was a nice way to see NY, even if you have lived there all your life. Afterwards there are so many things you can do at Chelsea Piers.

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jul 06, 2016 By: Anne S

We loved the cruise along the Hudson and the East River. It was a great way to see Manhattan. We are visiting from Australia. The experience was booked for us by our children as a Mother's' Day gift. The main meal (chicken), was delicious. The salad and cheesecake were less appealing. Thank you.

NYC Pizza, Beer and History Tour New York Date Night Jun 13, 2016 By: Axel C

Great tour, awesome tour guide. She was amazing. Will go on more tours, especially if we have her there.

Tenements, Tales & Tastes of the Lower East Side New York Date Night Jun 01, 2016 By: Barry S

So, my daughter decided to give us this tour as an anniversary gift. She had given us one of these tour before, and we loved it so much, she decided to give us another one. What made this one special was our guide, Brian Hoffman. His enthusiasm and knowledge truly made this an exceptional experience. It combined the best of history, sightseeing and local flavor. We would not hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone coming to NYC.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night May 31, 2016 By: Katherine H

This was a really fun food and history tour, by a friendly and knowledgeable guide.

We absolutely loved our experience. Our tour guide was really knowledgeable and fun! I have already recommended the experience to friends and family.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night May 16, 2016 By: Carra D

Easy to figure out which experience I wanted to book and easy to book it.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Apr 21, 2016 By: Simone P

Everything was very good, fun, informative and casual. What I didn't care for was that 90% of the tastings were done outside on the sidewalk. Fortunately it was a gorgeous day but had it been raining, we would have suffered. Really enjoyed Ian as our guide.

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jan 29, 2016 By: Tina S

We loved both Cloud 9 Living experiences we booked. First was a sightseeing lunch cruise on the Hudson River. It was fantastic. The food was delicious. A wonderful NEW way to see New York City! Second, we did a paint night at the #1 paint studio in New York, and it did not disappoint. We had an amazing time. Lots of laughs & memories! Will be going back to do these again!

Tenements, Tales & Tastes of the Lower East Side New York Date Night Jan 19, 2016 By: Thomas D

Our guide, Brian Hoffman, was excellent in every way. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and positive personality made our tour wonderful!

Enjoyable and made better by Matthew, our guide. Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Jan 06, 2016 By: Colin M

This walking food tour in NY. was a professional experience. Thoughtful, friendly knowledgeable host. Great food. Felt like we were truly eating at local Greenwich Village hangouts. Definitely recommend.

Matt is wonderful. We learned a lot and had a great time!!

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Nov 10, 2015 By: Saahir P

My wife and I never really do things like this, but this was definitely a different experience. We have been New Yorkers our whole lives, and this is the first time we've done something like this. It was a lot of fun, and the service was great. Food was pretty good, but I wish they had more options.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Nov 04, 2015 By: Lorraine L

Thoroughly enjoyed this food tour in West Village! A great way to explore the area! Very relaxed and chilled-out experience! Our guide (Lynsey) was knowledgeable and approachable, as well as friendly and engaging! I would recommend this experience to others!

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Nov 03, 2015 By: Andrew Z

We sat for 40 minutes (this is not an approximation or exaggeration -- I clocked it) off the shore not moving, with no explanation as why we were there, and then as soon as it was almost at the 2 hour mark we went back and docked. It was listed as a 2 hour tour. And yes, we were on the water/boat for 2 hours -- but otherwise very misleading and frustrating. Book with another tour operator. This was terrible. (Terrible for a paid tour; we were still on the water looking back at NY so the experience itself still had some merit.)

Beer Tasting Sail New York Date Night Nov 03, 2015 By: Patti L

Experience was awesome!! Ship was clean and had all amenities. Staff was awesome -- everyone was friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the beers. Captain steered close to Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island, so pictures were great. Most enjoyable afternoon!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Oct 16, 2015 By: James L

It was an awesome experience. Lindsey, our guide, was friendly, knowledgeable and relatable! The tour was fun and the food was great! Recommend it to do again!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Sep 25, 2015 By: Samantha S

Ian was a fun tour guide. I appreciated the real estate info that he mentioned! I wasn't as interested in the theater landmarks he pointed out, but I'm sure they would have been very welcome to someone else. The food stops were a little underwhelming; I must have been expecting shops that were a little more off the beaten path. But, the food was good, and getting to see all the little streets was fun.

Beer Tasting Sail New York Date Night Sep 22, 2015 By: Lori T

The ship makes a series of circles in one area of the Hudson River for two hours. Not what I was expecting. The crew was friendly but not talkative. Overall it's not a bad experience, it is somewhat disappointing though.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 09, 2015 By: Marygrace G

Fun, friendly and professional staff helped to make my retirement lunch cruise very special. I would definitely recommend Cloud 9 Living and The Spirit of NY to friends and family.

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Sep 09, 2015 By: David K

It is helpful to see the availability before purchasing an experience. The bartender on the boat was a little rude and not friendly.

NYC Bateaux - Gourmet Sightseeing Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 09, 2015 By: Esthefanie G

Love the fact it never expires and just the easy navigation tools for booking.

It was a wonderfully romantic experience.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 24, 2015 By: Thomas R

The DJ tried a little too hard. Mellow out dude. Why should we applaud the captain, and other people before the cruise starts? Maybe afterwards. I did enjoy the time of being out on the water very much. The waiter repeated much of what the DJ said. I'm not senile. Otherwise he was great. Thanks for the freebies! A little too much disco for my taste and, at 55, I was one of the younger people on board. The food was excellent; as a matter of fact, the pasta was possibly the best I've ever had!

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Aug 20, 2015 By: Dusanka C

Brewery Tour in Brooklyn New York Date Night Aug 12, 2015 By: Alan H

Tour guide was excellent. He knew the history of the buildings and Brooklyn and the breweries. I plan to take this tour again with a different group of friends.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Aug 10, 2015 By: Christina M

Lindsey was a great guide. She interacted with all the guests on the tour and knew her stuff. All the places provided tasty samples. Most friendly staff goes to Sweet Revenge. I would have liked a place to sit at one of the restaurants later in the tour. It would have been a welcomed break from the sun and walking. Overall, I was very pleased and would recommend to others.

Tall Ship Jazz Sail New York Date Night Aug 04, 2015 By: Pamela D

We had the perfect weather conditions when we experienced sailing on the tall ship cruise on the Hudson River in the evening hours. The ship was not crowded, so everyone had space to walk around and sit down. Looking at the NYC and NJ skylines at night, along with listening to great jazz music, just made the evening more special for us. My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves.

Tall Ship Jazz Sail New York Date Night Jul 31, 2015 By: Kacey G

I received my Tall Ship Jazz Sail as a Christmas gift . It was an amazing time! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the smooth jazz band on a romantic trip on the harbor in NYC. The view of the city at night was spectacular. I would highly recommend this experience for anyone looking for something different to do in the city other than the standard dinner and a show.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jul 24, 2015 By: Alexandra G

The food was awful, very disappointed. Wasn't expecting a wonderful dish but this really was disappointing.

Trapeze Lesson New York Date Night Jul 02, 2015 By: Andrew B

We had the trapeze lessons for two last Saturday and had a blast! The staff gave great instruction and feedback to help us improve our experience. Best of all, the staff was enthusiastic and fun. My only critique concerns the information provided about the location. A street address was provided, but it would have been helpful to know that the venue was located in Eisenhower Park near the aquatic center. Also, you should tell customers that they will need to pay a park fee if they are not residents of Nassau County. Luckily we had some cash with us!

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jun 29, 2015 By: John D

The Spirit luncheon cruise in NYC was wonderful. The food was delicious and the service first rate. A great experience!

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Jun 26, 2015 By: Richard C

Everyone on board was very nice. They were very reassuring to the landlubbers in the group. It was a great 90 minutes on board!

Carroll Gardens Food Tour New York Date Night Jun 15, 2015 By: Gillian R

Great tour guide that was knowledgeable and genuinely interested in the topic and the neighborhood!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night May 27, 2015 By: Cheryl D

Ian was a terrific guide. He made the tour both interesting and informative and was a good sport with a large group. Thank you.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night May 12, 2015 By: Matthew H

Photos and drinks were overpriced. Otherwise this was an excellent day out.

Beer Tasting Sail New York Date Night May 08, 2015 By: Ravi G

Excellent and great fun !

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night May 06, 2015 By: Sharon P

Very professional delivery with lots of personality. Ian is very knowledgeable with lots of trivia. Will definitely recommend this to others and will go for more venues ourselves in the future.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Apr 28, 2015 By: Rose F

The West Village Tour was great! It was a gift from my good friend (and your former employee), Ali! The Cloud 9 Living experience and food tour experience were spectacular! I would recommend both to anyone looking for a change of pace when it comes to gift-giving!

Trapeze Lesson New York Date Night Apr 24, 2015 By: Kamila W

This was so much fun! I was really scared at first but the instructors are so friendly they make you feel like you can do every trick! Going again!!!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Apr 13, 2015 By: Nancy S

Dante (the tour guide) was excellent! Nice mix of food tastings & tour/historical info.

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Apr 02, 2015 By: Neel K

Great experience and a lot of fun. Would be nice if more milk/beverages were available. We wrote our food allergies in advance, but I don't think they were acknowledged until we were asked/mentioned it at the beginning of the tour. Great tour overall and a lot of fun. Thanks.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Mar 26, 2015 By: Anita D

Thought it was great, but didn't want it to end. If it was a day trip cruise, it would be perfect!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Mar 26, 2015 By: Alex O

The West Village food tour with Ian from Sidewalks of New York was excellent! My friend and I had so much fun. I have lived in New York for 8 months and learned so much on the tour -- from history, to pop culture and cool new places to eat and drink in the area. Each food stop was delicious, and Ian knew the answer to every random question we threw at him. He was a great guide -- super fun and knowledgeable! Highly recommended.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Mar 26, 2015 By: Victoria S

Our guide Ian was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We had a wonderful experience, and look forward to doing more sidewalk tours.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Mar 16, 2015 By: Marcie L

The West Village Food Tour was great. Dante was our tour guide, and he was terrific. The places we stopped at were yummy, and the amounts of food were perfect. We will definitely book another tour.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Mar 09, 2015 By: Edward C

Reasonable way to spend an afternoon in NY. Don't expect too much sightseeing or information (it's really not meant to be an in depth tour). It's a light-hearted lunch cruise and quite enjoyable.

Brewery Tour in Brooklyn New York Date Night Mar 02, 2015 By: Michelle H

We had Josh as our Brooklyn Brewery guide. He was obviously very passionate about the history of Brooklyn as well as the history of beer in Brooklyn and was eager to share his knowledge with us. He had great intuition and could pick up on when individuals in our group were keen to hear more, or when they wanted to simply kick back and enjoy the product. He was more than happy to accommodate either. I would totally recommend this to anyone, either tourists or locals.

NYC Pizza, Beer and History Tour New York Date Night Feb 02, 2015 By: Nandan P

Overall good experience! However it would be good for guests to be given one full slice of pizza, instead of two slices made out of one split slice of pizza.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Nov 24, 2014 By: Ronald G

Ian was our tour guide. My wife and I were impressed with Ian's knowledge, sense of humor, and presentation. No complaints... awesome job!!!! We have already recommended Cloud 9 Living to our children and friends.

Brewery Tour in Brooklyn New York Date Night Oct 30, 2014 By: Hugh S

Brian Hoffman was our guide for a tour of the breweries and historic areas of Brooklyn, NY. He is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about this tour. His sense of humor and approach to the tour made it even more interesting, and his enthusiasm brought even the less interesting items to life and made it very enjoyable for the group. The diversity of the tour (breweries, older neighborhoods, churches, etc.,) made the tour very interesting and sparked our interest to learn more about the Williamsburg neighborhood. I would absolutely recommend this tour, and recommend Brian as the guide. Outstanding.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Sep 22, 2014 By: Lisa S

The West Village Tours was great. We are New Yorkers and still enjoyed it! It was great to learn history about the Village we never knew before as well as taste good food. Our tour guide Dante, was very knowledgeable, pleasant and great to tour with.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 16, 2014 By: Carolyn G

We were greeted by upbeat, friendly staff who made the experience a real occasion. The boat was clean and attractive. The food was wonderful and the dancing was great fun...the dj did an excellent job to get us up and dancing at lunchtime! The route took us past so many landmarks and the commentary was informative. A really memorable time - many thanks.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Sep 09, 2014 By: Phil B

Dante was a fantastic tour guide. Friendly and knowledgable. We had a very pleasant experience and would recommend this tour and company to friends based on our positive experience. Warm regards, Phil & Liz Browne

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 02, 2014 By: Donna F

We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend the trip.

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Aug 26, 2014 By: Tina M

We had such a great time. Our guide was knowledgeable and made sure we were having a good time. We got to try a variety of desserts and now we know some places to check out the next time we are in New York!

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Aug 25, 2014 By: Adrianne L

Allyson was a wonderful guide, and quite knowledgeable about the city. It was a pleasant and enjoyable afternoon as we tasted the various dessert available in Hell's Kitchen. Just the right amount of walking.

Tall Ship Sailing Experience New York Date Night Aug 25, 2014 By: Connie R

Would have enjoyed a knowledgeable person giving all of us some information about the different places of interest the ship passed along the way. We had a beautiful day out in the harbor; the people working on the ship were wonderful.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 13, 2014 By: Margaret O

Everything was excellent! Booking to the cookies leaving the ship were perfect!! The food was delicious and plentiful the service was great, the music was good my age would say a few more oldies or slow songs but we danced anyway had a great time!! The day was perfect the views were great!! Can't wait to book my next spirit cruise!!!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Aug 07, 2014 By: Maritza F

My husband, daughter, and I enjoyed the tour. The only thing we would've changed was the order of the restaurants. We would've preferred to start with bagels and end with dessert (cupcakes). Other than that, it was a great experience.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 06, 2014 By: Joanne M

Our luncheon cruise on the Spirit was delightful! My husband and I booked the cruise for Christmas presents for his father and girlfriend but we decided to go also and Im glad we did! We all had a really nice time, from the minute we got there we were greeted so nicely, our waitress was delightful and friendly the food was good and the outside deck was nice and comfortable and we really enjoyed the ride! My father-in-law can't wait for his present this year! Thank you!

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jul 21, 2014 By: Edi D

We booked an NYC Lunch Cruise. We had a great time, great staff, great food. The only down side of the experience was the food. It was luke warm, very bland and there was not a lot of choice.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Jul 21, 2014 By: Edwin M

Being native New Yorkers, we were a little blase about going on a tour of NY Harbor, but were very pleasantly surprised at the richness of the experience. We have already told many of our friends about it and would highly recommend it to everyone.

New York Food Cart Walking Tour New York Date Night Jul 11, 2014 By: Tania H

I absolutely loved my walking tour of the street vendors in New York. I didn't expect to get so much food or gain so much knowledgce about how it all works. Very, very happy and would highly recommend to anyone.

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Jun 30, 2014 By: Ashley T

I bought this for my husband's 32 birthday and we both loved the experience. We live here in the city but never get to get out on the water and see the city from the view this boat was able to provide. Though we have both seen the Statue of Liberty, we were in awe of the beauty with the sun setting as its backdrop. We also thought the boat was not to crowded which was nice to be able to sit some and stand/walk around. Towards the end of the ride it got chilly and the boat staff handed out blankets. This was greatly appreciated since it was late June and no one was expecting it to be as cool as it was. Overall the experience was great and highly recommended.

Beer Tasting Sail New York Date Night May 28, 2014 By: Meghan G

We had a great day for the beer tasting on the Clipper City ship. The staff was very helpful and fun. We are talking about doing it again with a bigger group of people.

Tenements, Tales & Tastes of the Lower East Side New York Date Night May 28, 2014 By: Maureen M

Native New Yorkers so there were a couple of facts we did not know, guide was knowledgeable and aimed to please. We are active seniors but the long walk without a break to sit down was difficult , the walking was fast paced and we were just worn out at the end. A break with a place to sit down in the middle would have been good. We regularly walk a mile to a mile and 1/2 each day at a minimum but this did wear us out, I even fell , a first for me, I was just so tired.

Tenements, Tales & Tastes of the Lower East Side New York Date Night May 12, 2014 By: Kevin A

Our Cloud 9 tour certificate was a gift from our son and daughter in law at Christmas time and until the actual time of booking a date from Australia, we did not realise that Urban Tours would be the company we would be linked with. The experience with Urban Tours was exceptional and we loved every minute. Karen our tour guide is so knowledgable and enthusiastic and we learned so much about the very early days of New York City. The 3 plus hours flew past and we would have to say that this tour was the highlight of our week in New York. Highly recommend this tour with Karen Brueckner. In fact a tour not to be missed!

Brooklyn Navy Yard Tour New York Date Night May 06, 2014 By: Joseph B

Cindy, our Turnstile Tour Guide, was terrific . She was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and personable. She was very willing to answer questions and get everybody involved in the tour. I would be very happy to go on another tour with Cindy. She's what an excellent tour guide should be.

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Apr 23, 2014 By: Kim C

Sarah our guide was great ,Vey knowledgable on NYC Overall my wife and I had a great day and would recomend it to anyone of all ages' Craig Coker

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Apr 18, 2014 By: Alisa V

Sarah was great!!!!!

Hell's Kitchen Dessert Tour New York Date Night Mar 20, 2014 By: Patricia D

The selection of individually owned stores and the background information on the owners made the tour unusually interesting. All the desserts were outstanding and our reception in the stores was friendly. I really enjoyed the experience.

New York Food Cart Walking Tour New York Date Night Jan 08, 2014 By: Patricia P

We will never look at a food carts the same, after taking the Financial District Food Cart's Tour within New York City. Brian was our guide, and did an outstanding job educating us on the various aspects of New York City's tastiest food carts! As one who knows his subject, Brian was witty, knowledgeable and friendly. His enthusiasm was infectious as he led us through the streets of New York's financial district, lending us some very tasty food cart cuisine! When you think of it, those food carts located within the financial district would likely be the very best, because they, unlike those in touristy Manhattan, survive on repeat/local business (you know...those white collar types who really know what good food is). Thus, our tour was one we'll remember, not only because of the tasty treats we were given, but because of the wealth of interesting facts Brian provided about the cart's history, what one must go through to even get a cart on the street, the cleanliness factor of the carts, and even the history of many of the characters who operate them. Our tour was one of the most fun things we did while in The Big Apple (and we visit annually and do lots of stuff). The food from the several carts was tasty (we're not talking hot dogs here), and Brian was the perfect guide, gentleman and entertainer! Plan to walk a bit...not a tour for those who have difficulty navigating the sidewalk. We heartily recommend this tour without abandon!

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Dec 27, 2013 By: Tony A

Crowded, shorter than expected, other participants drunk and loud

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Dec 04, 2013 By: Emily M

I have been to New York plenty of times, and while this included a lot of history I knew, I still learned a lot. The eateries chosen were very diverse and represented the city well. My tour guide was excellent and friendly. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants a taste of New York City.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Dec 04, 2013 By: Karen H

Everything was wonderful for our anniversary. The food was delicious, the dessert was such a nice surprise with the message on the plate. Our glasses were a great remembrance of the day. However having the dance floor taken over by little girls doing acrobatic flips was alittle disconcerting and took away from the romantic experience . Other than that my husband and I had a memorable time and have recommended to cruise to family and friends. Karen Hawley

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Oct 09, 2013 By: Mary A

We took the lunch cruise on the Hudson River in NY. The crew were so friendly and accommodating and met my dietary restrictions with a smile!

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Oct 01, 2013 By: Yolanda R

We had a wonderful time would do it again

Beer Tasting Sail New York Date Night Oct 01, 2013 By: Craig C

Everyone had a great time!

Tall Ship Sailing Experience New York Date Night Sep 30, 2013 By: Karen T

Oh I had a great time. We were allowed to help raise the sails. Wow- a lot of fun-but hard work- and there were about six of us helping- LOL! It was also a beautiful sunny day. And the dark and stormy drinks were also quite good!!!

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Sep 30, 2013 By: Jim S

Wonderful !!!

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Sep 19, 2013 By: Frank M

I bought the Shearwater sailing tour around NY Harbor. We found the dock very easily. However, I had a little trouble finding the boat b/c the sign for it was below sight level. Other than that, we had a great experience. The boat is beautiful and the staff were great. They were very attentive and answered any questions anyone had. It is a very relaxing way to see the New York City Skyline. It was one of the most beautiful days of the summer so that helped to enjoy it even more. I would highly recommend this trip.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 19, 2013 By: Kathy W

Our daughter gave us the Spirit Luncheon Cruise around lower Manhattan for Christmas. We finally made our reservations. We had a wonderful time. The weather was perfect, the food was delicious(especially the desserts) and the staff was helpful and pleasant. Most of all it made our daughter extremely happy that we enjoyed her gift!

Beer Tasting Sail New York Date Night Sep 11, 2013 By: Lauren B

It was a wonderful experience!

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Aug 19, 2013 By: Jeannine B

This is not a narrated tour so if you want to learn about the sites you are seeing this is not the tour for you. For a great, relaxing evening and picturesque views at sunset and dusk, this is a fabulous trip. Limited seating so come early to secure a spot if you are unable to stand for 2 hours.

Tall Ship Jazz Sail New York Date Night Aug 19, 2013 By: Barbara W

The Jazz Cruise was wonderful. Great music and views! Boat could have more seating. Thanks

Tall Ship Sailing Experience New York Date Night Aug 19, 2013 By: Aaron B

Everything was good. Great day on the boat. Just wish the crew would have talked and told us about the different iconic places we past. That would have MADE the trip.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Aug 19, 2013 By: Leslie F

We enjoyed our tour very much; the guide was very knowledgeable of West Village.

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Jul 15, 2013 By: Mary L

We truly enjoyed the experience and have already recommended it to a few people. Would go again on another tour.

Tall Ship Sailing Experience New York Date Night Jul 10, 2013 By: Allan P

The sails up and a perfectly sunny day. The captain and crew were professional at all times.

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Jul 02, 2013 By: Rajiv D

It was a picture perfect day and we enjoyed our sail very much!

West Village Food Tour New York Date Night Jul 02, 2013 By: Richard A

We really enjoyed Dante. He was very knowledgeable and funny. He was very good at projecting his voice, which is real important so everyone can hear. Thanks again, Rick and Karen

Brooklyn Navy Yard Tour New York Date Night Jun 19, 2013 By: Tom K

I will be recommending Cloud 9 Living to my friends. The booking was easy and the language was clear. My family very much enjoyed the tour to the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Alex, the tour guide, was friendly and knowledgeable. He met the group in the museum building which had bathrooms and water. The tour was part bus & part walking. The bus was air conditioned and comfortable. There was just the right amount of walking. The Brooklyn Navy Yard has an amazing history and future. The tour provides a great way to learn all about it.

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Jan 14, 2013 By: Christopher F

The crew was very pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable. The ship itself was clean, beautiful and unique when you went under the deck. The only issue I would say is the seating is a little scarce, but my girlfriend and I were lucky enough to get the seat we wanted and had a wonderful time!

Brooklyn Navy Yard Tour New York Date Night Dec 06, 2012 By: Samantha M

Alex was great!

Trapeze Lesson New York Date Night Oct 29, 2012 By: Brooke B

The entire experience was beyond amazing and fun! We can't wait to do it again! We will defiantly recommend this fun activity to others, we might even start taking lessons :) Thank you to everyone for being so friendly and helpful!

New York Food Cart Walking Tour New York Date Night Oct 29, 2012 By: Linda F

What a serendipitous experience. The eight members of our group, our guide Brian and certainly the food made for a magical time in midtown Manhattan.

New York Food Cart Walking Tour New York Date Night Oct 20, 2012 By: Mary F

For the price of the tour, we felt very little was offered.

Tall Ship Sailing Experience New York Date Night Oct 08, 2012 By: Michael C

A wonderful sail ... a great time.

Carroll Gardens Food Tour New York Date Night Oct 01, 2012 By: Arielle R

Food was delicious. If I had to suggest, I would say more of a mix of sweet and savory tastings...too many sweets when it's recommended to not eat lunch before arriving. Otherwise, the guide was knowledgeable and engaging, as well as friendly and fun.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 28, 2012 By: Loretta H

Our party would like to give a very special thank you to our cruise host, Ameera, who made sure that we enjoyed ourselves to the fullest. She was not only extremely friendly and had a great personality, but she was so understanding and made special accommodations to seat our party of 22 people together and make our mother's birthday extra special!

New York City Lights Sail New York Date Night Aug 18, 2012 By: Frank T

Although the weather was absolutely perfect and the view of the city lights was beautiful, the actual experience was somewhat disappointing. The Captain offered no commentary at all. All you did was sit and admire the view of the city lights but you didn't know what you were seeing. For those who were not from the area, the experience could have been enhanced had the captain shared that information. To add credibility to my comment, a fellow passenger asked me what some of the sights were. On a positive note, the crew did raise the sails and the engine was shut down so the boat was then being powered by the wind and sails. That was a very nice experience for someone who has never sailed before. Additionally, the crew was very friendly and accommodating.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night May 31, 2012 By: Lorraine L

We thoroughly enjoyed the luncheon cruise. The food was surprisingly good, which I was not expecting. It did get very crowded around the buffet table, but there certainly was plenty for everyone. I would take this cruise again, but in the evening. I am sure it is romantic and beautiful at night with the lights of the city sparkling. The Cloud 9 Experience was part of our Christmas Gift and I highly recommend giving a Cloud 9 Experience as a gift to friends and family for a special occassion. Thank you for a lovely day.

Tall Ship Sailing Experience New York Date Night May 31, 2012 By: Dale P

It was a wonderful experience. I came much earlier then required and your staff was nice enough to take care of me and give me my tickets. That was the start of a good time being booked in. Had the pleasure of seeing a wedding unboard your earlier ship. What a beautiful experience, you should adversite more for getting married on the ship.

Tall Ship Sailing Experience New York Date Night May 22, 2012 By: Diane F

We had a great time. This staff was friendly and funny. We were highly entertained. The boat was clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed the bartender. She was very friendly and outgoing. She was mixing drinks that tasted very good, especially the ones with Jamaican Ginger Beer, something we never heard of. We enjoyed ourselves very much.

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Apr 04, 2012 By: Lynette O

We had such a great time!! We will be booking a nice lunch cruise in June.

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Oct 17, 2011 By: Kathleen B

We had a fabulous time on the Hudson river sail! It was doubly delightful because of the amazing weather we had. Would highly recommend this experience/excursion!

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Sep 12, 2011 By: Kerry G

Perfect gift for friends, family, and clients. The NY Harbor Sail was easy, beautiful, unique and we will book it again in a heartbeat. I loved it!

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Sep 12, 2011 By: Mariel H

I originally purchased this experience (2 Hour NYC Lunch Cruise) as a 25th birthday present to my husband, but we were not able to take part in it. I gave the experience to my mother and stepfather as a present, all which they LOVED! Their experience was amazing and they could not stop talking about it for days. I will definitely book this same experience for my husband and I for the next time we go to NYC.

NYC Sunset Cruise New York Date Night Aug 23, 2011 By: James W

We truly enjoyed our 2 hour sail on the Clipper City Tall Ship from 7-9pm. The evening started out with a huge thunder storm while we were waiting to board the vessel, and it seemed like the sail would be called off.But because of the expert experience and good judgement of Captain Robert Griffith, we all waited out the storm on the dock, the skies soon cleared, and off we sailed to enjoy a beautiful evening aboard this magnificent vessel. Capt. Griffith and the crew were outstanding and made everyone on board feel relaxed and comfortable. We had a great time, and I have recommended the evening sail to many of our family and friends. Thank you for a most enjoyable experience! Jim & Carol Westervelt

New York Lunch Cruise New York Date Night Aug 09, 2011 By: Elaine B

Booking my experience with Cloud 9 was so pleasant and easy. One, two three I received my confirmation. I enjoyed my Spirit of New York lunch cruise so much. The food was fine, the dancing was fun and the crew was friendly and accommodating. I would so recommended Cloud 9 to anyone who will listen. Looking forward to booking another experience soon. Thank you

New York Harbor Sail New York Date Night Dec 04, 2009 By: Andy H

Breathtaking! Everything from start to finish was amazing. The captain and his mates were very nice and accommodating. We could not have asked for a better time, truly one of the best experiences we have had!

Just want you all to know it has been a very exciting time learning how to fly with you. I really appreciate how you all encourage the confidence in us so we can let go of the fear and fly!
