What you will experience

Step aboard one of our cozy, 1920s-style yacht or open-air sailboats, as we travel northbound on the Hudson River in style!

Admire the Palisade Cliffs of the Hudson River through the skylights of our boat's heated and enclosed observatory, or while catching the breeze on her bow aboard one of our schooners. Observe New York's most dramatic natural wonders and foliage as the seasons change. This is a spectacular season for cruising the Hudson River, north of NYC, and will be a true delight for you and your guests.

Join us on an autumn cruise out of the busy city of Manhattan north on the tree-lined, scenic Hudson River.

Fall Foliage Disclaimer:

*Peak fall foliage is not guaranteed. We have seen fall colors at their peak as early as mid-October and as late early December along the waterfront in the Palisades of New Jersey (the prime destination of our fall foliage excursions). Refunds due to ‘lack of color’, will not be honored. Cruising on the Hudson River, north by the Palisades, is a grand, beautiful, unique and interesting route and is the declared value of this excursion.

 

We have more sailing experiences around NYC! Choose between Sightseeing CruisesBoozy Yacht CruisesJazz Cruises and Mimosa Sails.

All sales are final. No refunds or exchanges.
