The cruise was perfect. The boat was spotless, the staff friendly and helpful. They have a snack bar with food and any kind of drink both non alcoholic and alcoholic beverages. There is just enough history mixed with quiet time to sit back and enjoy the beauty of the river and the lovely homes. I took my parents and it made their trip to NY!

The cruise was relaxing and scenic but our group was unable to hear any narration due to a broken speaker in the area we were located. Sewer gases flooding the women's restroom made it VERY unpleasant to use. A few bucks to fix the toilet seal and speaker are in order.

Thank you for riding with us. Upon receiving your request we have checked all the speakers to make sure they were working properly. However, we did not find any issues. My guess is when the engines are running at full throttle some spots are hard to hear the narration. I will continue to work on a solution. As for the other issue in the bathroom, I have brought in a plumber to resolve the problem. We just installed all new toilets on the vessel so we think its a venting issue. Thanks for your feedback.

We always enjoy the beautiful Hudson River when we are home. Thanks to HR Cruises! We saw many long-familiar landmarks, such as the Kingston Point Lighthouse, estates along the Hudson, and the Walkway Over the Hudson.
