Traveler reviews
Good transport option
The ferry was great and left right on time however we were promised a guided commentary and didn't get one! Disappointed as we have never been here before and didn't know what we were looking at from the boat
Ferry or Train??
We took the train to Salem and the ferry back. It was a nice change of pace and an opportunity to see more of Boston.
Day trip
Really pleasant staff but we unfortunately booked via Trip Advisor and the cruise on Sunday 2nd November was cancelled. The company contacted Trip Advisor in advance but we were not notified by Trip Advisor. The company had a friendly representative there to explain incase we were unaware. Book directly with the cruise company because we would have been given a refund straight away. As yet we are still to get payment of $71 back from Trip Advisor
Not happy
You cancelled our trip to Salem after we planned this out for months! Had to find alternate transportation. Not happy! 😡
