Escape NYC and take a leisurely cruise up the Hudson River to historic Bear Mountain. You'll enjoy a 2.5-hour cruise each way, and have three hours to enjoy Bear Mountain's natural beauty and attractions.
On your cruise to Bear Mountain you'll sail past the Palisades, Grant's Tomb, the George Washington Bridge and the Cloisters before cruising up the Hudson River. This trip is especially gorgeous in the fall, when the trees lining the river put on a spectacular display of russet and gold. Plus, every Saturday in October is Oktoberfest in Bear Mountain, with dancing, music and food.
Bear Mountain is 45 miles (72 kilometers) north of New York City, in the Hudson Highlands. Highlights you can explore during your two-hour visit include Trailside Museums and Zoo, Iona Island Estuarine Reserve and Bird Refuge, Perkins Tower, the merry-go-round and pavilion.
Pre-order a picnic lunch and enjoy a great day on the water! Beverages, wine, beer, cocktails, sandwiches, hotdogs, and snack foods are available for purchase on board.

We had so much fun! The views were beautiful, the alcohol was flowing (you might even call this a "booze cruise") and the festival at Bear Mountain was great! Would do this again in a heartbeat.
The trip was awesome. Though it wasn't quite sunny. It was also a pleasure taking part in the 'Oct Fest'. I liked the place and the peoples. Also appreciate Viator for how the organize the entire trip.
Great trip only would like to have known about the climb up tp Bear Mtn inn.
Excellent trip. One warning, be on the ship by time crew says. Saw a person left behind. It was sad, but it was their own fault. They were told many times as people were leaving the ship.
Excellent cruise!
Due to the excellent weather, we had a great time at Bear Mountain.
We did not care much for the October Fest, so we enjoyed ourselves with the beautiful nature on site.
The three hours on Bear Mountain were more than enough.
I can imagine that the 2,5 hours it takes the boat to get there, can be quite boring, but we had a great time taking pictures in the front of the boat.
Be sure to bring something to eat, because the prices on the boat are expensive.
Highly Recommended
A trip worth taking. The crew and boat were amazing, friendly and informative. Although we were unable to dock at Bear Mountain due to high tides covering the jetty, this was off set by the Captain sailing further up river . This enabled us to see West Point Officers Academy and other stunning scenery. The view on the return journey as you approach NY is breath taking as the outline of NY on the skyline is framed by the George Washington bridge. A fond memory of our stay in NY.
We had a wonderful day at Bear Mountain the boat trip over and back was great, without this site we would not have known about Bear Mountain. Coffee on board was good not expensive staff very good. New to computers so we are learning to look and find places that we would like to see we found this site and pleased that we did. We are now back in Australia and have enjoyed our trip to the USA/Canada Thank you for your site.
A very pleasant boat trip, providing great views of the Hudson River valley, plus 3 hours to enjoy a relaxing and picturesque hike around Bear Mountain. Highly Recommended!
Excellent value! It was a lovely trip there and when we arrived there was theOktoberfest going on so that was an extra for us! Then a very relaxing trip back and it gave us time to recharge our batteries. Tour guide on boat excellent
The Cruise itself was great, however, the land portion was misadvertised. There was no Oktoberfest, no place to eat, other than a hot dog at the carousel, and the were no signs point the way to anything. My wife and I were expecting the little village with arts, crafts, and plenty of places to eat. Bear Mountain was deserted except for the cruise crowd. Oktoberfest was advertsied to have been extended to October 31. That was disappointing.
