We did this tour in December last year, my father and I. We'd never been to Boston before and we wanted to see Gallop island being Gallop's ourselves! Nate was our tour guide and he was absolutely brilliant, knowledgeable, interesting and funny as well - kept our attention the whole way through. The cruise was great - long enough to see everything without being too long, great views of all the islands and fantastic views of the harbour. Will hope to return again once my island is clear of asbestos...:)

We were supposed to get refunded for this because everything was closed down & the money never came back to my account.

This harbor cruise tour was very informative and a lot of fun. I would love to take this tour again and any others they offer when I go back to Boston.
