1.5 hour cruise of Boston Harbor w maybe 5 minutes of narration. Line could do a lot more with facts about Boston points of interest etc.

Elizabeth_W

It was a beautiful boat and the crew was very nice. We thought it would be more of a tour. There wasn't as much commentary/information about Boston Harbor as we wanted.

Anne_C

We loved it! Very chill. The staff was great. The captain pointed out several cool sites, but did not talk the whole time. We will definitely do this tour again!

Cruise got canceled, was very disappointed. Only received one call regarding the cancellation. We are on vacation and it would’ve been nice to receive the call earlier so we could’ve planned with another company. Are stay in Boston wasn’t going to be long enough to reschedule for a different date.

Great day to go, we had very unusual weather 60. We had a great time the guide was very informative. The views are really great. The traffic in Boston is the only problem. But what else is new.
