We had a beautiful fall day for our tour. It was comfortable seating, and well narrated. We saw some beautiful homes along the magestic Hudson River that otherwise would not be accessible for viewing. It was very easy to get our tickets on line through a voucher that we turned in at the ticket booth. The boarding of the boat was within walking distance of shops and restaurants. There was free parking right across the street. It was a great afternoon!

This was a very relaxing couple of hours on the Hudson River. Perfect for getting away from the rat race for an afternoon. Informative facts about the sights along the river too.

Very nice two hour cruise on the Hudson River that took us past two of the historical river light houses. Really enjoyed the view of the mansions monasteries and nunneries along this stretch of the river. The Catskills in the background of the return trip was amazing. the boat was clean the staff was friendly and very knowledgeable, and we thought the value for this relaxing cruise was very good. it was nice that we had good weather that added to the attraction.
