American Cruise Lines’ fall foliage cruises on the Hudson River are so popular they typically sell out a year in advance.

Now, building off the success of those September and October sailings, the company has been testing out new early summer voyages along the Hudson River. 

This spring, American Cruise Lines began offering an 8-day “Hudson River Summer Classic” voyage, which sails roundtrip from New York City. The new itinerary is similar to the fall foliage cruise, and includes stops in Catskill, Albany, Kingston, Hyde Park, West Point and Sleepy Hollow.

Those trips have been so successful that the company has already tripled the number of departures it will offer in 2025. Next year, sailings will be available throughout June, July and August.

The company is the only cruise line to offer overnight luxury river cruises on the Hudson River.
