The Best Boat Tours in Manhattan

#1 Manhattan Sailboat! 5-Star Champagne & Catering Service with Captain & Crew

Could not be more grateful to Martin and Chris for helping create what is now one of the most memorable evenings of my life. We left the pier around 6pm for an evening sunset sailboat cruise around Manhattan. Everything was perfect. I had told Martin and Chris that I planned to propose to my girlfriend on the cruise, and they went above and beyond to make every moment special. Martin and Chris were both knowledgeable, personable and professional, making us feel welcome and at ease. We were served charcuterie, dinner, wine and champagne at the front of the boat while watching the sunset. Before I proposed, Martin made sure we had a nice view behind us, and Chris took great pictures of the moment. We will definitely book with them again!

We had a wonderful time and couldn’t have asked for anything else. The sailboat is very comfortable and luxurious. Captain and crew were very kind and thoughtful. It has ample of space for a party of 6. Would recommend to anyone who wants a different perspective of the city.

Amazing. So perfect. Took my husband for his birthday and it was so great beginning to end! The captain and crew were so thoughtful, helpful, and kind. We brought our own food due to dietary restrictions and they even helped us set it up nicely. Above and beyond- thank you!

Best trip EVER! We enjoyed sailing around and getting to see the city. The crew was amazing too! We even encountered a small rain shower and the crew was so fast to help us downstairs and keep us dry - I recommend Martin’s boat to anyone looking for a fun activity in NYC!

This is our third boat ride on captain Martins boat and as always we had the absolute best time. I’m always so glad I choose to sail with them and always leave, planning on when is the soonest time I could come and book again. Captain Martin was extremely accommodating & professional throughout the entire booking process and his boat has everything you could ever need. The boat is extremely clean and in great condition. Highly recommend to every single person. Captain Caleb and Gino also made our experience so much more enjoyable & went above and beyond for us. 10/10 - 5 stars isn’t enough to explain what a beautiful experience this is. Runnnnn - don’t walk to book!

The most important considerations when hiring a boat and captain are the ability of the captain and the seaworthiness of the boat. If it's a sailboat, the captain's skills are even more important. I hired Captain Martin and his sailing vessel, SAGA, for a three hour cruise with my family down the Hudson River and around New York Harbor. Martin is an excellent skipper. His many years of training and experience show in the way he handles the boat and the decisions he makes. I felt comfortable and secure with him at the helm. His ability was most obvious when he was tacking down the Hudson in a strong wind. His boat, SAGA, is very seaworthy, making me feel totally safe. SAGA is clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Martin's assistant is pleasant, polite, attentive, and does an excellent job caring for all your needs. Martin and his assistant create a relaxed and casual atmosphere onboard, which we enjoyed. Our cruise with Martin on SAGA was a wonderful experience. It created a happy memory for all of us that we will cherish for many, many years.
