My husband and I went on the fall foliage trip. We purchased the tickets directly from Hudson River Cruises. We were able to board a little early and select seats. There was plenty of seating across three decks of the boat. The tour,highlighting the history and landmarks of the Hudson and the coastal areas, was very interesting. The crew was also very informative. I would definitely take this cruise again. I plan to return this summer with my family.

It was a gorgeous fall day in Kingston, and we had an informative and relaxing cruise. The staff and the captain were friendly, gracious, and helpful. We had a wonderful time!

Very nice trip. Sound system could have been louder! But it was a beautiful October day . Would probably do it again sometime.

The cruise was beautiful, however we were seated outside up top in the rear and could not hear anything. Be aware that there are no speakers at the back. We missed the entire commentary.

An enjoyable 90 minute cruise. The cruise is called 'leaf peeping' but we were there the 2nd weekend in Oct & very little fall foliage. Still very beautiful scenery, with the Catskill Mountains in the near horizon. We'd never been to Kingston & we enjoyed walking & dining along the waterfront.

We had a wonderful time cruising down the Hudson River. The trees were changing colors and the sun was shining so it was a gorgeous day. The captain of the boat gave an informative commentary on the land, colonial history,indigenous history, and historical mansions along the route. This cruise certainly gives a glimpse of American life past and present.

Staff was very nice. Accommodations on the boat were average. Trip narration was good. I was a bit disappointed in that I was expecting to see more than we actually did .

It was a nice ride, We were on the middle deck and when the the actual person was speaking, it was easy to hear and understand. When the audio was playing, it was not. I would have liked more history and stories of the Hudson and the houses along the river.

The boat was very nice. We sat on the first floor and it was very comfortable - the weather was chilly, but our area was heated. The bathrooms were spotless. The cruise was lovely. The scenery was beautiful, the narration of points of interest were very informative, and the boat sailed so smoothly you hardly felt like the boat was actually moving. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed the trip and would highly recommend it!

This was a pleasant 90 minutes cruise on the Hudson River. It’s a great way to see some of the river and to hear some of the history.
