This was a Ladies only cruise, which went around the light houses it was from 6pm to 8pm. They had light finger foods, champaigne toast, dj plus vendors of all sorts maybe about 7 or 8. Went with a friend and it was a great night to start the summer. The dj actually played our kind of music, music we haven't heard in years. We had some drinks at reasonable prices, danced and enjoyed the music, well worth the $22.00 with tax. You forget the fun you used to have when running to practices, games, picking up/dropping off your kids and other kids. Plus, the other added lists of things daily with your families. They should have more of these cruises at the same time

Hudson River Cruises offers a tour down the Hudson River. It is an approximately 2 hour tour with some commentary on the sights that are along the river. Seats are relatively uncomfortable and the boat is noisy. Aft on the boat there is a strong odor of diesel fumes. Not really a value for the price. Parking can be a problem.

Went on a class trip recently. Narrated so you can learn our history here. Wish we went a bit further down the river. Wanted to see more mansions. It's so beautiful and picturesque on the Hudson. The ship isn't fancy but there is food and drink for sale.
