Beautiful sunset cruise of the harbor

Donna_M, Aug 2022

Great tour guide. Explained and described the history of the buildings and harbor. The bar crew were quick and friendly. The boat ride was smooth and relaxing

Worst sunset harbor cruise

Boyd_O, Aug 2022

The sound from the speakers was extremely poor. Standing directly below a speaker was the only possible position to catch any information. The loop of the journey was basically a short ride to the airport and sea ports - not much to see. The regulars seemed like they had the best plan, stand in the back and drink.

Peggy_B, Aug 2022

We couldn't hear the narrator on the front of the boat. Would have been more enjoyable if we could have. We could hear the narrator from another boat clearly

Christina_J, Jul 2022

Simple and informative. Exactly what we were looking for - a beautiful way to see Boston from the water

Response from Host, Jul 2022

we are happy you enjoyed your cruise.

Average sunset cruise

ariellalabell, Jul 2022

Great weather and view. Downsides — very small seating area outside on top deck — we stood. Also, narrator was very hard to hear — volume too quiet.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

The top deck is definitely the most popular. There is also seating on the outside of the second deck all the way around the vessel. I will inform the captain the volume needs to be turned up on the third deck. Thank you for bringing that to our attention.

Great times

Joyce_T, Jul 2022

The crew were very nice and knowledgeable. The scenery was beautiful and I learned a lot about Boston!

Splendid!

Handel_G, Jul 2022

Seeing the USS Constitution, and hearing the firing of the battery. Excellent Historical commentary on the Boston area. Cleanliness of craft (The Freedom), and friendliness of the crew.

So not waste your time

Janet_m, Jul 2022

Boat was old needed to be updated. Could not hear the captain talking Did not really see anything Just a very slow ride

Response from Host, Jul 2022

I am sorry you did not enjoy your experience. The tour of the Harbor and the sunset cannon at the USS constitution are highlights of our tour. Please call the office so we can speak about this further. We want our tours to be enjoyed, not disappointing. 617 542 8000. What date did you take the cruise?

Sunset

Carolyn_R, Jul 2022

The views of Boston. One tip would be to put more chairs out at the top of the boat and air into the bathrooms.

Actual trip was very good...

Angela_B, Jul 2022

Actual trip was very good with commentary But didn’t see much as one particular large family pushed there way through to see everything and no one was stopping them or checking on protocols. Ruined trip on our half

Stunning views/ Great Value

Aarica_G, Jul 2022

Absolutely stunning views! Great value for your money. I would recommend for friends or couples. I brought a group of high school students who..did get a little bored.. but C’est la vie. The history over the speakers was very informative and the crew was friendly.

Awesome Harbor Excursion

Greg_S, Jul 2022

The Sunset Cruise on our first night of our visit was very enjoyable! Great views of the Boston Harbor and Boston city skyline. We were thankful for the historical information provided since we had never been to the area prior. An exciting introduction to a great city!

Fantastic Boston Harbor tour!

JeffandKathy_M, Jul 2022

Informative tour, captain shared about all shoreline sites. Prompt and courteous service. Evening was beautiful and timed so we heard the U.S.S Constitution cannon at sunset!
