This historic boat ride was just as advertised. The tour guide was knowledgeable. The boat was spacious with plenty of seating. We sat on the top deck. Although it was super hot the sun felt good with the ocean breeze. I definitely recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed a beautiful morning cruising Boston Harbor and learning not only Boston history but the history of the harbor itself and many islands around it.
