We took the trip on a Sunday morning and the experience is good. The tour guide gave us an informative and fun introduction to the points of interest along the coast line, and you got the chance to see the Boston skyline from the water which is very nice.

We met up with our relatives approximately 20 of us. We did a nice cruise of the harbor. There was a narrator who pointed out the sites. It was very informative.

Took the 90 minute tour and it was absolutely worth every minute! Beautiful views of Boston skyline learning history of buildings as we went out into the harbor and toured past a few Islands, learning their history as well. Guide pointing out historical areas along the way, such as where Tea Party took place to where the USS Constitution is docked.
