Take a Private Fall Foliage Cruise on the Hudson with Eastern Star Cruises

As summer comes to a close, we look forward to the refreshing arrival of autumn and the stunning fall foliage that comes with it. New York is known for the vibrant, beautiful fall colors that the changing leaves bring.

If you want to experience the full beauty of the season in the best light, then you absolutely must view it from the deck of our Motor Yacht Eastern Star on the blue waters of the New York Harbor.

At Eastern Star Yacht Charters, we offer elegant 4, 6, and 8-hour day private cruises where you and your loved ones can enjoy once in a lifetime views captained by Nick Kutscera. Common sights on our cruises include the GW Bridge, The Little Red Lighthouse, The Cloisters, Croton on Hudson, majestic Bear Mountain and West Point among other glorious locales.

When you board our Motor Yacht Eastern Star, you are not only getting the great views but you will feel like a VIP enjoying our many amenities. We are basically a one stop shop for all things relaxation as our boats feature a cozy library, beautifully appointed main salon, and a spacious dining lounge deck where you can peruse our selection of elegant menus and eat some of the finest food prepared by our decorated executive chef.

There is nothing like seeing the stellar New York City skyline and enjoying the vivid fall colors aboard a yacht. Perfect for corporate bonding, celebrating business successes, wedding events, and birthday celebrations, this picturesque trip will give you priceless memories.

Our cruises depart from Chelsea Piers or Yonkers Municipal Marina, so you have the option of starting your journey from the port closest to you and our experienced crew will be there to assist you at every step, both before and during your excursion. You will not want to miss this lovely experience so act soon before that New York winter arrives!
