New York City Lights Dinner Cruise

About this activity
Make your way to Manhattan's Hudson River Park in the evening to embark on your 3-hour dinner cruise. As your 3-tiered yacht departs down the Hudson, bite into hors d’oeuvres served during a reception, then take a seat at your table and gaze out the panoramic windows at the New York City skyline illuminated at dusk.

Select from an à la carte menu and sit back as the professional waitstaff delivers you a customized 3-course meal. Selections may include filet mignon, pan-seared salmon and chicken with truffle potatoes, followed by a decadent dessert assortment (see below for a full sample menu).

The DJ music picks up after dinner, so purchase a drink from the cash bar and show off your dance moves on the dance floor, or head outside to be dazzled by the New York City sights. Get unobstructed nighttime views of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, the Brooklyn Bridge and more from the top deck.

Your dinner cruise concludes back at Pier 40.

Optional Upgrade: Viator Exclusive: Treat yourself and a loved one to your own private window table that guarantees unobstructed views of the dazzling city. Enhance your dining experience with one complimentary bottle of Champagne per couple. It's an option only available on Viator!

The dinner cruise was a treat to myself and my husband for our 26th wedding anniversary. This was our first time in New York and we thought what a great way to see the Manhattan Skyline at night along with a good view of The Statue of Liberty. We were not disappointed. The staff were great. The food was for my husband excellent , the food for myself being vegetarian was okay you only get one choice for main meal which was cauliflower steak which was not for me . But overall we had a great night which was over all to quick we could have stayed on board till mighnight if allowed.

The food was excellent, the journey through the river was smooth and relaxing. The waitress was very pleasant and welcoming. However, the DJ was terrible, he never played dancing music only at the end of the cruise!!! My husband and I love to dance so when we saw that music and dancing was part of the package we was on board, only to be disappointed by boring music and no indication of the dance floor coming to life. Here’s a tip, coffee and tea must be served with the starters, it’s important to have a warm beverage to prepare the stomach for heavy food.

Love the boat, and the beautiful evening cruise. Very smooth ride, great sights including the lighted city skyline at night and the Statue of Liberty. Music, drinks, and dancing. Food good, but this is more about the cruise. Window seat enjoyable when eating, but the best photos will be from the deck outside or up top.

This is the third time I have taken this tour when bringing family member to NYC for their first time. On January 22, dinner cruise, it was terrible! The dining room was so hot we could not stay at our table for longer than 10 minutes without having to go outside to cool off. The music was the main thing that made our evening miserable. It was so loud we could not carry on a conversation. DJ played the same music all night and was so focused on a group of 5 single females that he ignored the remaining guest on the cruise. This made for a miserable evening for our family of 5. Would not recommend this cruise!!
