Beautiful way to see the city from a different perspective. Being sailors ourselves we had high expectations and they were certainly met! Beautiful views and a friendly crew!

After an enjoyable day hoping on and off the Boston Trolley buses, it was great to get out on the water relax, enjoy looking at the Boston skyline from a distance and cool down with a very welcome sea breeze, a thunder and lightening storm did not upset anyone on board in fact it may have added to the trip watching the lightning in the distance

We had family visiting from Toronto Canada and wanted to show them around Boston....after doing some research for holiday type activities this 1.5 hour cruise sounded appealing because it was a good way to show our family what a beautiful city Boston is. From the minute we walked onto Northern Lights we were impressed. It was decorated for the holidays...clean and spacious and comfortable...it was warm and cozy...we ordered drinks and a cheeseboard and thoroughly enjoyed hearing about some of the Boston history and of course the beautiful sights from Boston Harbor....would definitely revisit when the weather gets warmer!!!
