Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Here for a concert. No place to sit, unless you have a VIP ticket from a sponsor. AND... they don't let you bring chairs or a towel in. No info on this on the website. This is bull$hit and I will never come here again for a show. Totally miserable!

Walk through Riverfront Park at sunset and enjoy the beautiful serenity that it offers. Cross to City Island via "Old Shaky" with beauty that stroll offers.

We walked for a very long time on the river, enjoying the water and the bridges and the geese and the groundhogs.

You have historical houses on one side and the Susquehanna River on the other side. The vistas are beautiful, especially in the fall.

While visiting the Whittaker Center on a recent Saturday, we walked the several blocks to Riverfront Park to check it out. We were pleasantly surprised by the coolness of the walking paths, footbridge to City Island and the overall convenience of the park to the city. Seemed friendly, safe for walkers, joggers and bikers alike. Watch your step by the path right by the water as there are no railings.

It is a nice long walk along the river which is very peaceful and tranquil. Some statues and murals along the way and even a nice garden with a gazebo. There is a path right next to the river or one at street level. Either one is pleasant

My daughter and I walked a mile or two along the river and it was really a nice walk. We didn't go to the island, but they have mini golf and other fun things to do on the island.

I try to walk here whenever I get to City Island. Both the Market Street bridge and Walnut Street bridge connect Riverfront Park to City Island. It offers great views of both the river and City Island. The Capital Complex is also just a short walk from Riverfront.

Had a wonderful time. A nice walkway to walk along the river. The grounds are well kept. If you go take your lawn chairs, blanket and your cooler with snacks.
