I appreciated the fact that the cruise line allowed us to reschedule our cruise because the weather was so bad. We went the next day and enjoyed the trip through the inner and outer harbors.

Had a nice time on this Boston Harbor Cruise. Learned a lot of history of the area. Declan, our narrator, was both informative and entertaining. Weather was great and the sea was calm. A suggestion is to sit on the right side on the top deck under cover of the sun on a very hot day.

The weather was great for a cruise. The information they gave on the cruise was great and easy to hear. We sat on the top deck which they had all the chairs facing the same way which was because most of the places they talk about are on the one side as you go out of the harbor. I highly recommend this cruise as part of visiting Boston.
