There are few sights more beautiful than New York State in the fall. Now you can take in the splendor during this picturesque time aboard the luxurious yacht ZEPHYR. Circle Line Downtown's Fall Foliage Cruises are elegant, refined and relaxed day-long excursions and wine-tastings up the Hudson River to West Point. These cruises, expanded to four dates this fall (Sat., Oct. 20; Sun., Oct. 28; Sat., Nov. 3; and Sun., Nov. 11), celebrate the charm and beauty of autumn in New York.As a fun way to catch up with friends, a romantic excursion for couples, or as an excuse to get together with family, these cruises are sure to create lasting memories. This scenic tour will include views of some of New York's most famous sites, as well as hidden gems that dot the historic Hudson. Riverside Church, Grant's Tomb and the majestic George Washington Bridge join the Little Red Lighthouse, Bear Mountain Bridge and The US Military Academy at West Point. The quaint beauty of The Palisades, Tarrytown, High Tor State Park, and Croton Point Park are also optimum points along the cruise to view fall's palette of colors.
A complimentary wine tasting will allow guests to sample and purchase some of the best vintages that New York State has to offer. ZEPHYR'S two full cash bars will also keep your "spirits" up and flowing throughout the day. Your palate will also be tempted by the scrumptious food served through the duration of the cruise - including a Continental breakfast, full buffet lunch, and dessert. Football fans needn't worry - ZEPHYR's 10 flat-screen TVs will broadcast the best college and professional games - so you won't miss one second of the action. If you prefer a serenade, featured live music will also add to the elegance (and maybe some romance!) of this day cruise.
In addition to the comfortable seating available on ZEPHYR'S three magnificent decks, visitors can opt to relax at a bistro-style seating area available on the Main Deck. Whether you choose spend your time indoors on either of the two warm and inviting enclosed decks - or outside on the Sun Deck inhaling the fresh, crisp, fall air, this cruise is sure to be one you will look forward to each year.
