Creator's Key Takeaways

It was still stunning. Absolutely stunning.

Worth every penny. It's not a ride I'd do again very soon, but it's definitely one I'd do again in the future when I've forgotten that ride.

I highly recommend it. It was great fun.

If you're happy in your own company to admire the views and relax and be peaceful, this is the trip for you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take snacks and your own food on board.
Sit on the left side for Hudson River views and the right side for Adirondack Mountain views.
Get off at the Albany stop to stretch your legs.
Make sure you can lift your suitcase to the overhead space.

YouTube Video Description

Join me as I swap ships for something a little different — the Amtrak Adirondack, one of the most scenic train routes in North America! This unforgettable 10-hour journey from New York City to Montreal follows the Hudson River, winds through the Adirondack Mountains, and crosses the US–Canada border before arriving right in the heart of Montreal. Tickets cost around $75 USD per person, and we booked easily online with Amtrak. There’s plenty of luggage space, comfortable seating, and a café car serving snacks, teas, coffees, and even hot meals — I tried the macaroni cheese, which was surprisingly good! We had a long stop in Albany, perfect for stretching your legs and taking photos of the train. The entire journey offers breathtaking views — especially in autumn when the trees burst into colour. If you’re planning a Canada and New England cruise, or just looking for a unique and relaxing way to reach Montreal, the Amtrak Adirondack is a brilliant option.
