Ring in 2025 aboard a New York harbor cruise with buffet dinner, open bar, DJ music, skyline views, and fireworks from the water.

Review of NYC’s Cornucopia Majesty New Year’s Eve cruise, with buffet, open bar, DJ, reserved seating, fireworks, and practical tips.
“Excellent organization, magnificent setting. Fantastic DJ. Efficient staff. Dinner with limited choice but good, there was also something for vegetarians.

A girl fell and hurt her wrist, and a waitress who was there didn't even offer to bring her some ice. Apart from that, everything was truly magnificent, with a wonderful New Year's Eve fireworks display.”
