We wanted to see the Hudson from the river, and we got our wish. This was a relaxing cruise with several great restaurants within walking distance. The crew was friendly, delightful, and informative. The day we went the boat was not too packed. The crew pointed out sights that weren’t.t part of the narrated tour. We saw many bald eagles, a highlight for us. Close to the end of the cruise there was a terrific lighting storm followed by a torrential downpour. The crew provided ponchos and helped us get safely below deck if we wanted to stay dry. It was a pleasant way to enjoy the afternoon.

If you want to enjoy the beautiful Hudson River, there is no more relaxing way to do so than enjoy a two-hour cruise. There is a running commentary provided on the history of the area, and landmarks are pointed out on both sides of the river.
