Cruise Testimonials

Wow! What a wonderful experience my husband and I had on your dinner cruise The staff was outstanding! We spilled a glass of water and the glass broke. They whisked it away without any disruption to the evening. Also, my husband didn't like the salad and they immediately switched to a different appetizer. The photographer was very good, too. We just had to purchase the photo.

Again, thank you for an amazing evening. When we come back to New York, I would love to do it again!

I was on board last night for the NYU Hospital cruise and I just had to tell you what a wonderful experience I had. The evening was perfect in every way and the staff went out of their way to make the night so beautiful. Thank you so much. I will definitely be back!

I have never written a letter of thanks to a company before. However, my recent excursion with World Yacht impels me to thank you for the wonderful experience I recently had on one of your harbor cruises. The moment our group of four couples stepped on board the ship, we all immediately felt as if we were on vacation. The crew was so welcoming that they set the tone for a happy and serene evening. The cares of the day literally melted away.

Our elegantly appointed table was waiting for us and it afforded us the luxury of intimate and joyful conversation. The wait staff was attentive but unobtrusive. Even before the yacht left the dock, we were offered lovely drinks and hors-d’oevres. It was definitely a party at which we felt pampered and well cared for. The dinner menu offered such fine selections, all definitely haute cuisine.

The joy of going on deck between courses cannot be adequately described. As the ship moved smoothly in the currents of the magnificent Hudson, we watched the lights of the breath-taking New York skyline on one side and the luminous colors of the sunset on the other. As the sky darkened we could not fail to be inspired as we sailed so close to the Statue of Liberty that was illuminated in golden light. As we continued to sail we were caressed by gentle breezes and lulled by the lapping of the waves. Adding to the good feeling was the wonderful dance music. How romantic it was to dance on board what we felt was our own personal yacht!

It was hard to leave when the ship slipped back into harbor. The dockside parking was no small consolation as we made our way back home feeling that we had been far, far away. I can’t wait until next time!

Sincerely,
Michael Fox, Ph.D.

Yesterday my extended family was on board the Duchess for the Brunch Cruise. It was the most wonderful experience. The relaxed casual but elegant setting and the wide range of exquisitely prepared foods in the buffet were exceptional. The most wonderful part was that no one in our family had the pressure to be the host or hostess. We were all able to relax, talk, laugh , and feel pampered, without any of us having to cook, refill glasses, or make sure everyone had what they needed.

Sincerely yours,
Rena Borow
