Title kind of days it all. I had to call them for a refund, which of course will take a week for no good reason except they want to hold my money. Very very annoyed. If anyone has a nice alternative to suggest, let me know.

My sister and I finally got to take Mom to New York for a visit. This was a first time for all of us, and what better way to see the city skyline than from the cruise. The crew was great! Anthony had our section, and he went out of his way to ensure that we had a great time. The boat was very clean.

3 friends and I did the fall foliage lunch cruise that was great fun from start to finish. Boarding was quick and easy. We had a great table by the window music was playing when we boarded and a DJ kept us entertained throughout the trip. Drinks were reasonably priced and the buffet lunch was varied and plentiful. We had a chance to dance off some of the calories and went up onto the upper deck for the breathtaking views. A really great experience highly recommended

I arrange trips for the Mansfield Seniors and we went on The Sprit of NJ fall foliage cruise. The weather was gloomy but our members were cheerful thanks to the wonderful staff. Everyone from the office staff to the bar tenders, wait staff, chefs, entertainment staff and crew went out of their way to make sure everyone had a great time. The food was wonderful. A special call out to Alex for all he did.

Lots of activities to keep the kids engaged on the buffet floor as well above deck. The food was top notch as usual and they did refill when it was running low. Combining the cruise experience and the views, some nice time with family all in all, well worth the money we paid for it.

Our cruise was simply the best! The crew went above and beyond to make sure we had an incredible time, going out of their way to meet every request, anticipating what we needed, and taking the time to talk and LISTEN to the details and get it right. Dion was incredible, she took such good care of all our party, right down to the last detail of giving my wife flowers at the end of it all! Matt was also there for us, making sure the little details were seen to, helping our mother on and off the ship. I can't begin to say how much joy you have given to all of the people that were with us, thank you so much for everything that you do!!!!!

Reviewed September 23, 2019
We arranged this as a belated birthday night out for my wife and we had such a good time. We had paid for an unlimited drinks package and a window table for just the four of us. On boarding the vessel we were shown to our table, at the bow of the boat next to the buffet (result!) and our waiter\steward Curtis introduced himself. We must point out he was excellent as he was attentive throughout the night, kept the drinks coming, and was really pleasant, friendly and good humoured. A credit to Spirit Cruises. The food...I LOVED THE FOOD! Creamy mashed potato, broccoli, cheesy pasta, chicken in honey and ? (can't remember) sauce, meatballs, braised beef, various salads. The only thing I didn't have was the fish as I don't like fish. I didn't have any desserts either as I went back for seconds. Delicious. After going down the Hudson and up the East River under the bridges we went back out into the bay to sit for a photo op at the Statue of Liberty. She looked spectacular at night. On returning to the dock we were asked where we were going to and as we were returning to Manhatten they said we could stay on board as the ship was going back there to berth. That saved us a bit on our taxi fare. We can't recommend Spirit Cruises highly enough.
