Cruising Hudson River

Leaving New York’s iconic skyline behind, a sail along the size-restricted Hudson River provides contrasting sights and experiences to those on offer in the ‘Big Apple’. While relaxing on board your smaller ship, walls of towering skyscrapers will turn to low-lying riverbanks laden with tree-smothered state parks and nature reserves. These countryside scenes are particularly breathtaking in the fall season, when the lush foliage turns to vibrant autumn colours of browns, reds and yellows.
