Nice, pleasant boat ride with an informative speaker who tells you about the history and the natural scenery in the area. You can order drinks and snacks while you enjoy the boat ride.

Great tour on the Hudson River. Learned interesting info about the area. I believe the guide’s name was Nancy(?) and she did a fantastic job narrating. She walked around afterwards and showed some pictures. We even got to see 2 eagles on the return trip! I think it was a little overpriced, but still a fun thing to do if you’re visiting Albany.
