We had an enjoyable time on the Historic Sightseeing Cruise. This was our first time in Boston and thought this tour would give us another way to get to see Boston and the Harbor. This tour did not disappoint. We had wonderful weather and the onboard guide, Declan was informative and entertaining. Besides the history, you realize there are ample opportunities for recreation (for another trip).

Not really that much to see in the harbour, narrative was good but enjoyed the walking tour and bus tour better.
