Albany Aqua Ducks and Trolleys: Just Ducky Times!
Just Ducky Times!
The Flotilla Is Coming! Be Part of History!!
Save the date and join the Ducks on June 13 -- River Day in Albany.
We're setting sail for the Hudson River to greet a flotilla of marine vessels during the Hudson 400 Quadricentennial Celebration in Albany.
The Ducks will be part of the Relay Flotilla that will begin in New York Harbor. On June 13, they arrive in Albany -- hundreds of vessels that have retraced Henry's Hudson's historic Voyage.
We'll Splashdown into the Hudson at 11:30 a.m. At 12:30, we'll be welcoming the Half Moon (a replica of Hudson's historic ship); the Onrust, a 17th century replica of the first ship built in New York; the Sloop Clearwater and many more vessels.
So, reserve your place on the Duck today and be part of history. Reservations at 518-462-3825 or www.albanyaquaducks.com.
Henry Hudson Says: 'Welcome Aboard'
Treat yourself, family and friends to one of our historic tours with a first-person narration by our Henry Hudson re-enactors. Don't miss the boat on this fun way to see Albany. These special tours take place during 2009 -- Albany's 400th anniversary of its discovery by the great explorer. Watch our Henrys tell their stories.
Trolleys Travel for Special Tours
Hop aboard the Albany Trolleys for some very special historic tours. On June 13, two tours will take place in Menands.
We have A Hudson 400 Special: Grave sites and Stories of Some First Dutch Settlers. This tour takes place in Albany Rural Cemetery and is led by the cemetery's Historian Peter Hess. A new tour, A Military Tour of St. Agnes Cemetery, will be led by Military Historian Mark Bodnar.
Reservations, please.
Then, we're off to Schenectady. By popular demand, historic tours of the city return on the third Sunday of each month, starting on June 21. Tours depart from the Schenectady Greenmarket at Liberty and Jay Streets.
Ahoy, Mates!
Join our captain and pirate crew as we take off for the Hudson's high seas -- looking for treasures, singing songs and encountering pirates along the way.
Our Pirate Adventure tour on the Duck departs at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 21 (Father's Day), from the Albany Heritage Area Visitors Center in downtown Albany. What a great way for Dads to spend time with the kids! Reserve today!
