This was a wonderful experience! We saw osprey, bald eagles, a peregrine falcon, and great blue herons. Our guide was super knowledgeable about the natural and human history of the area. We'll definitely be coming back and bringing friends and family.

It was a terrific 90-minute cruise aboard the Hudson Spirit on the brilliant autumn afternoon of Oct. 24. The scenery was spectacular and the crew did a great job describing the sites along that way. We'd do it again. Highly recommended.

A very nice river cruise with friendly staff and knowledgeable captain. A great time to see the fall foliage and even a couple of bald eagles. Reasonably priced.

Such a wonderful and relaxing cruise! The crew was super nice and the views were spectacular. Such an easy part of our trip to just walk off the Amtrak and onto the boat. Captain commentary was funny and cute. It felt like he knew every person in the surrounding town and their boats which was heart warming. Can’t beat buy one beer get the 2nd for a dollar! I didn’t anticipate a bar on board but boy was I happy! I wish the weather had been nicer but I definitely would come back. Definitely wish we had pulled more cash out to give a better tip to the crew.

I traveled with my mother and 4 year old. The team was so accommodating, enthusiastic and kind. The Captain gave a guided tour. It was a lovely, peaceful experience.

We attended a Murder Mystery on the Spirit on 28Aug21. Guy and the crew did a great job making all the guests comfortable, providing a great meal, and imparting humor from the helm. The 2 of Us Productions troupe was talented and funny.

Great way to see the area and start off or finish a trip. You can also have a beer or glass of wine while relaxing

Was a great 1 1/2 hour cruise down the Hudson River. The cruise leaves from the pier in Hudson NY and passes many beautiful sites like the Hudson-Athens lighthouse, under the Rip Van Winkle bridge, make a right and head down the Catskills Creek and then make the return trip. The Captian was fantastic and narrated the entire trip. He knows the Hudson like the back of his had. SO much that he has published a book about the history of the Hudson River. I 100% recommend the cruise and when I can, I will do it again.
