Staff was extremely accommodating and… Staff was extremely accommodating and the boat cruise was so much fun. Food was great and they had more than enough drinks to go around for the 90 guests I had! Amazing day and great views of NYC. Will definitely be doing this again.

Sweet 16 We loved having my daughters sweet 16 on the lucille boat. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Middle School Prom Night 2019 We used Empire Cruises for the 2019 Graduation Class, Middle School Prom Celebration. Since the first call, Byron the representative, was extremely helpful and patient explaining me the different options for the small budget our small school had. The day of the event, June 14, 2019 I was in contact with Sal, the boat manager, who helped me with all the details before the students and staff arrived. During the cruise all the crew members were very helpful and attentive taking care of all us. Food and music was according to our expectations. I just have words of praise for all! Thank you for making a memorable night for the students. Most of the students are new in the country and it was the first time seeing the Statue of Liberty, or even more, riding a boat. For them it was a WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!!!! Thank you to Byron, Jennifer, Manager Sal, DJ Anthony, the captain and rest of the crew, for making such a first-rate experience to us all! Keep up the good work.....

Empire Cruise Empire Cruise, amazing from start to finish. From setting up the event with Nicole who had to deal with me calling more than I probably needed to. Nicole was so gracious and really helpful. Nicole took care of our every need before the cruise. The Jacana was a great vessel and our crew was truly amazing. Calvin, Kenny , the captain and the crew hand. They made our team building event a great one. Sure to return for another trip. I highly recommend booking with them. Thank you all Danielle

Excellent experience with Empire Cruises We rented the Jacana for our cruise in late June. We found the staff to be accommodating, the boat to be clean and the route to be good as well - down the East River, quite close to the Statue of Liberty, and around the World Trade Center before looping back. As a 65+ person group in their mid twenties, we enjoyed ourselves - the food and drink setup was very friendly and accommodating of a group like ours as well. It would be wise to bring an extra adaptor for the speaker system as we had trouble converting ours from the aux cord provided to a new iPhone port.
