About this tour

As the sun sinks behind Manhattan, the city’s towers catch the last light from the water. This 90-minute New York City Sunset Yacht Cruise sails along the Hudson River and through New York Harbor aboard a classic 1920s-style yacht, offering a relaxed way to take in the skyline and snap memorable photos.

Pass Manhattan’s financial district and One World Trade Center, then look toward Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. A complimentary beverage is included, and relaxing music plays onboard; the cruise is not narrated. Elegant tables are assigned to each booking. Light snacks are available to purchase, or you may bring a light snack of your own.

Depart from Pier 62 at Chelsea Piers, where you’ll check in at the Classic Harbor Line ticket booth near the dock. Bring photo ID that matches your reservation, and contact the operator ahead of time if you need boarding assistance. Settle in, raise a glass, and see New York City from a fresh perspective on this sunset yacht cruise.

How the score works and rating distribution in New York City
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.6. Top 8% in New York City means it ranks in the top 8% of tours in New York City by this score.
