We boarded the World Yacht "Destiny" for a private event dinner cruise. Although it was raining so hard it felt like we were getting ready to board the Ark, once aboard the luxury of the ship made us feel like we were in a sophisticated NYC nightclub. The food was wonderful, the staff was cordial and accomodating, the bar lounge... More

Cruising up the Hudson on a Sunday night, leaving in daylight, seeing the sun go down with the Manhatton Skyline / Statue of Liberty / Brooklyn Bridge in the background was amazing! The 4 course gold package was excellent, both had fillet mignot which was out of this world. Having read other reviews before we went, were a bit concerned... More

My husband and I went on this trip this afternoon. Firstly the lady on the desk where you check in to collect your passes was rude! She was digging around in her handbag as she spoke to us, it all seemed to much bother for her. She very rudely told us to come back at 11.30 snd the passes will... More

We had our daughter's bat mitzvah on the World Yacht and our family is STILL calling to tell us it was the best party they have ever been to. I was so worried that the weather was overcast, but it never mattered! You still have amazing views from the inside no matter where you are. The staff went above and... More

The World Yacht Brunch Cruise was definitely cooler than I expected it to be! The service was great and the food was awesome. The mimosas were pretty good too. We had an awesome time and took tons of pictures and we live in NYC! Much more fun than I thought it would be. Will definitely do it again!

I took my Daughter on the evening dinner cruise for her 21st birthday. We had paid top price for everything window seat bar package etc. When the waiter came for our drinks order the "free bar" (that we'd paid for) was very limited so I just had a glass of rose wine as did my daughter and would perhaps have...

My parents surprised me with a birthday gift I will never forget to share a spectacular evening with my friends at the yacht. Due to traffic we were a bit late, but not like another cruise,they waited. The manager bill and Amanda were so kind and really tried their best to wait for us. The staff was so kind, the... More

We had a wonderful time on our cruise, the crew was attentive and the food was great. The DJ was fantastic I wish he would play our Christmas party in Ottawa. Would definitely recommend it to others.

We had the all inclusive package . The food was ok, the boat very nice but the service was very poor. After having one glass of wine we had to wait 15 minutes for another drink - this only came when my husband complained. So - would not recommend unless service is sorted.

For my birthday, my wife arranged a surprise trip on the Duchess Yacht. This was a cruise around Manhatten, starting off at 6.00 when it was light. At 7 we cast moorings and started the cruise. The food was great and the staff friendly and efficient. The sights of New York at night are unmissable, especially the views of the... More
