The scenic route is just so relaxing and the vibe on the ship is so friendly and upbeat. The star of the ship, however, is DJ Esco. Oh my!! DJ Esco played music from my era (1970's) thru the 80's 90's to present. He knows how to get a party started and keep it going!! It was one big lovefest, from the children to the seniors on the dance floor and if not dancing, singing from your seat or while taking in the views. Happy Birthday was sung to all the birthday folks and though the time just flew by it felt like we had been cruising longer than two hours. I am so looking forward to returning and enjoying many more celebrations on RMS Cruises. Thanks to the entire crew - We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Firstly I would like to thank the entire staff and owners/captains who made my mom's birthday a…read moretruly special experience. She was in love with the time spent and how friendly everyone was. A time was had and will not be forgotten! This was my mom and I's first time aboard the Emerald princess and it was something I've had my eyes on for quite sometime. I was very interested in their fall foliage cruises but was unable to get around to booking. A brunch cruise came up on my instagram feed around the time of my mom's birthday and decided to treat her. We departed at 11am and circled around by West Point and came back. It was a beautiful Saturday morning with smooth waters and blue skies. The boat was very spacious, comfortable and welcoming. On the table they had a lot of Peekskill attractions to encourage you to venture out around the town. After departing at 11am we were served complimentary mimosas and the brunch buffet was opened shortly after that. The spread was wonderful. They served eggs, bacon, sausage, two types of quiche, pancakes, seasoned potatoes, penne vodka, chicken francese, assorted muffins and fresh fruit. Everything was served hot, fresh and delicious. The buffet was not self service but it was opened right up until a few mins before the cruise ended. There was plenty of food and no shame in going back for seconds or thirds! They had a friendly bartender that had soft drinks, waters, wines/beers and cocktails made to order. The views were amazing from the upper and lower decks. We had access to the entire boat. The owner came around to greet everyone and surprised us when she announced that if anyone wanted to drive the boat the opportunity would soon come! My mom was thrilled. There is a picture of my mom actually steering the boat in a captains hat lol! I loved seeing her happy and knew I made the right choice booking us tickets with R.M.S cruises. I really couldn't recommend it more and if you need some extra convincing please refer to the picture of my mom with the captains hat on. Her happiness from this brunch cruise is infectious!

I did a girls trip this time and it was just the best time I've had all year. We felt very safe being in the open air and the boat is big enough for social distancing when needed. I just can't tell you one bad thing about it. We brought the drinks and food and the captain navigated us through the most up close and private V.I.P tour ever. This is my second review and I want to say that it was just as good if not better than the first time. Bring your family, best friends, or someone special. You will never have more memorable and magical time. When you split it's not even that expensive. Not for what you get. Totally amazing!

They had no regards to us all standing in the bitter cold. There was no contact saying they gonna be late. It was a horrible experience. It was so cold at least 5 couples left when we did. Totally unprofessional I will never do that again unless it's in the summer.

Nor did it show where we'd go or what we'd see. It turned out to be a small trip and one that was not interesting at all. The husband was out on the small pontoon boat. When we saw the boat we laughed that it didn't look like much. Anyway we boarded and the husband pointed out some minor things to see. He pointed out a bald eagle in top of a power pole, the level of a few floods, and some turtles on a log. How useless. It was only 20 minutes each way. When asked a question, he reluctantly repeated what he said earlier. Seems like the guy wasn't so nice to us. For the same price, we'd have been better off going for desserts.
