Great views!

It was a nice relaxing ride with some beautful views of the city but could not hear the narrator very well. It was also great seeing planes come into the airport right over your heads.

The boat that I went on...

The boat that I went on was spacious and had plenty of room. Board early to get a good seat on the upper deck for a good view. The captain was friendly and informative. I would definitely go again. Wonderful views of the Boston downtown skyline and sunset.

I had a an amazing time! The boat ride exceeded my expectations. I loved the information that was giving from the host and learning about the area and buildings and their history! I went with my daughter and she also had a lovely time! This was also a suggestion from her we booked it and there we were having a good time on the water! I/We enjoyed every bit of our ride on the boat. Loved it! Will do it again…😀
