This is a trip we take every year with our group of teens and adults with special needs. We usually have 50 - 60 people in attendance. It is a beautiful boat ride, and the staff could not be better. They are so helpful, kind and friendly. One of our most favorite trips of the year!

The boat crew was very nice and accommodating, they added stories to what we were viewing. Friendly,took pictures for you, you can move about the boat. Not crowded, didn't have to worry about a seat with a view. Fall Foliage was beautiful. (always third week in October!) The mountains were so picturesque ( I got 2 for 1 price on Groupon) . So worth the trip.

This was my second experience on the Pride of the Hudson in the Fall. The crew is always so friendly and helpful. The boat had more than enough seating but could have used more on the top deck. I would definitely recommend the Pride of the Hudson. Its a perfect way to experience the Hudson River where so much history lives.

My husband and I enjoyed the boat ride on Saturday October 15. The weather was beautiful and it was nice to be on the boat. The Hudson valley is so beautiful. We’ve been living here for years but never did the boat ride. Glad we got a chance to do it and definitely will do it again.

I throughly enjoyed the trip. I have always wanted to see Bannerman's Castle from the river. Cold Spring was beautiful in the fall and West Point was magnificent. Seeing an American Bald Eagle in a tree was the topper. Yes, this is a great trip.

Yes. Even some street parking. Just make sure NOT to park in an adjacent lot that is reserved for restaurant customers.
Is it recommended to bring your child of 14 years to the boat ride? Or is it highly recommended for only adults to go.

This is good for all ages. However they may offer sunset/happy hour cruises which i would not take a 14 yr old on
How much does it cost?
