American Cruise Lines is pleased to announce that it has
completed the first few sailings of their newest itinerary, an
8-Day Hudson River Summer Classic, and already tripled the number
of departures available for the cruise in 2025. American is the
only cruise line in the world to offer overnight luxury river
cruises exploring the Hudson River, and for years the company's
popular Hudson River Fall Foliage cruises have operated only in
September and October, often selling out over a year in advance.
This year, the Line tested several early summer sailings in May and
June, along a new 8-Day Hudson River Summer Classic itinerary,
which sails roundtrip from NYC and explores throughout the Hudson
River Valley. The new cruise offers magnificent views of
Manhattan's famous skyline, sails
right past the Statue of Liberty,
and visits: Catskill, Albany, Kingston, Hyde
Park, West Point, and
Sleepy Hollow, New York, and
includes excursions in NYC.
GUILFORD, Conn., June 24,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- American's new Hudson
River Summer Classic itinerary is similar to the Line's popular
Fall Foliage cruise, offering lots of great excursions to cultural
sites throughout the Valley, but the new cruise also provides a
great new way to explore the Hudson Valley during
summertime—harkening back to a time when summer sojourns throughout
the region were a popular vacation option for families and couples
alike. The new Summer Classics are also particularly convenient for
New Yorkers, with ships departing from Pier 81 right near the
Intrepid.
American is the only cruise line in the
world to offer overnight luxury river cruises exploring the Hudson
River.
These exclusive Hudson River cruises operate aboard the newest
modern riverboats and small ships in the country, which offer 100%
private balcony accommodations, spacious and comfortable indoor and
outdoor lounges, walking tracks, and amenities on par with the
finest river cruises in the world. American's new small ships also
offer sweeping river views from nearly every space on board, as
guests are transported along the river.
Over the past century, the Hudson River Valley has been home to
U.S. presidents, titans of industry, illustrious artists, and both
famous and infamous Gilded Age characters. The region is steeped in
history and offers many historic sites. Local guides and experts
will lead American's guests through all the area's renowned points
of interest, including visits to West Point Military Academy, FDR's
Presidential Library & Museum in Hyde
Park, the Vanderbilt Mansion, and Lyndhurst. The itinerary
also offers a guided exploration of New
York City including a special World Trade Center experience,
and the opportunity to visit Sleepy
Hollow where Washington Irving's most famous novel, The
Legend of Sleepy Hollow, was
written while Irving lived on the banks of the Hudson at his home,
Sunnyside.
American has already completed the first several sailings of the
new Hudson River Summer Classics, with the last 2024 cruise
concluding in NYC tomorrow, on June
25th. Next year, the company is offering more than triple
the number of summer departures, offering sailings all throughout
June, July, and August, in addition to the ever-popular fall
departures in late September and October.
All American's Hudson River cruises are further highlighted with
onboard enrichment and nightly entertainment, all-inclusive fine
dining, and complimentary cocktails every evening.
