Top 10 River Cruises

Hudson and St. Lawrence Seaway

American Canadian Caribbean Line’s 12-day “Northeastern Fall Foliage” itinerary combines sailings along New York and Canada’s most scenic waterways. Embarking from the cruise line’s homeport in Warren, Rhode Island, the Grande Mariner and Grande Caribe each sail past Manhattan and up the length of the Hudson River towards the St. Lawrence Seaway. En route, the itinerary calls for an overnight stop at the Erie Canal, a visit to West Point's U.S. Military Academy campus, and a wander through romantic Boldt Castle in Alexandria Bay. Once past the Canadian border, guests may visit the art museums of Montreal, before disembarking to stroll the cobblestone streets of Quebec City. Designed to navigate through the narrow watercourses and low bridges, both ships feature a dining hall, auditorium lounge, and several cabin options for passengers. And while a voyage on these waterways is beautiful any time of year, the eye-popping colors of these autumn (September and October) sailings make it downright breathtaking.
