This was my 3rd trip to Montgomery, AL., all were business trip but, this is the first time I brought my family and had time to enjoy this beautiful city. We all had a wonderful time learning about the unique history of Montgomery outside of the Civil Right history. Riverfront Park provided that insight.

I think the are is beautiful you can walk around and just have nice time there, I’m sure in regular times it’s much alive . They have some boat tour on the Alabama River. You can find different thing to do there, the Amphitheater looks cute and unique, the historic Union station train where you can find some restaurants and amenities, for the lithe one an area of splash water.

A nice walk in the park today. It looks like a great facility when there is music or baseball happening.

It is a very pretty area and quiet for it to be something around downtown area in Montgomery. Actually its about the only thing to do in downtown Montgomery besides watch the biscuits play and go to the alley.

Nice little river stroll and evidently a place for music and other community events. Met many nice people walking along the river checking out the scene. This is a great thing for Montgomery and it is so close to food and other great spots. Parking is easy and it is very walkable.

I would like to send a big shout out to the Captain handling our cruise tonight. They had just pulled off when I arrived and thanks to crew member Damien Pickett he asked the Captain would he come back to get me because I was the mother of the birthday girl Valerie Scott and he did thank you The Harriott 11 enjoyed ourselves The music was the bomb as well

All I can say is Fabulous!!!!!!! I think they need to host the boat party during the summer ️time. I know we all want to see the beautiful ladies in a nice bathing suit.

I wish they would have posted the hours of operation, me and a friend took my boat up from Gunter hill and docked it where the River boat docks went through the tunnel and up to the different restaurants and when we go to get on my boat to leave was shocked to find the gates were locked at the entrance of river front park and couldnt find anybody to help or even tell me when they opened the gates again, so I ended up having to spend 25 dollars for a ride with Lyft, which was not planning on at all, then had to make time and find someone to go with me the next day and was not planning on that at all need signs explaining your hours and if you want people to come downtown by boat need to give them access to somewhere that either doesnt lock the gate or at least stays open late. its a beautiful area and maintained well

Montgomery did a great job with the Easter Egg Hunt this year! I loved seeing all the excited faces everywhere! I especially appreciated this being a free event so that many people could join! There were several activities. The people putting this on were helpful & organized. We really had a good time! Thank You!

My trip to Montgomery Alabama to the harriott II Riverboat Cruise was amazing. Me and my wife enjoy the whole Adventure immensely. The added attraction was alive band playing I forgot the name of the particular band but they were very entertaining when I ride along the boat. Everyone on the cruise seemed to enjoy themselves. I wouldnt mind taking or partaking in the cruise again.

Review №44

Best place in town for a laid back relaxing evening and special events... when its open, which is not often enough. Primarily open on the weekends when there are special events, and closed during the weekdays so check online before going. It should be constantly open for walks along the river front, lunches, and just hanging out... but not.The Harriet II riverboat offers a nice one hour dinner cruise down the river and back with a blues or jazz band on the weekends and perhaps Friday evenings, too, but again, check before going.

The city went out of its way to make the Easter egg hunt a total success! My family enjoyed themselves. The place was quite amazing as my kids were able to run around. The view was also quite amazing and definitely not the Montgomery that I remember from a decade ago...which is a really good thing!

I loved the park .I was able to walk right outside of the Embassy suites to Union station .This lovely old building was a step back in time .I could almost hear the train whistle .The river was directly behind Union station .This made for a lovely evening stroll and a great easy stroll.The heat made it a little muggy.

Unfortunate. Its mid day Saturday, this place is developed with close by beautiful attractions, scenery, restaurants, museums; however there is practically no foot traffic from tourists. Its as if an unwelcoming spirit dwells here. I wish my experience was different, but it wasnt. A beautiful ghost town.

Place to be to walk around in the evening- downtown Montgomery

La
Review №85

The trail overlooks the river and has some excellent views. Is perfect for walking, running, biking, or whatever activity you have in mind. Gets fairly busy on weekends and the evening in the summer so you have to be extra careful if in wheels not to run into people who aren’t paying attention. I’ve even been in quasi traffic jams. Trail could use some repaving in quite a few places and getting back across the street can be a huge challenge.
