Traveler reviews
Tour guide was...
Tour guide was informative but boat was packed and had to sit on inside where we couldn’t see much or take pictures.
Great informative tour around the harbor
Never been to boston before and wanted a boat ride around the harbor while also learning a little about what we were seeing. This cruise was perfect for that. The guide gave so much good info and history about the city, architecture and what we were looking at it was great. You can get up and walk around the boat to take pictures or stay seated with the seats facing where the guide is referring. Nice tour length too at 1 hr. Not too short not too long. Perfect if you have other things to do that day. Definitely worth the price
10/10 5/5 so much fun!
