The cruise thru the harbor was spectacular. The guides dominate oratory about the harbors pollution, trash and sewage was decidedly disappointing. When there are so many historic events that took place in Boston Harbor, it was hard to believe more three quarters of our tour was spent talking about pollution, trash and sewage.

Very interesting tour of Boston Harbor and it’s history. Great staff would recommend to friends and family.

Beautiful views of Boston and the harbor. Interesting and little-known facts dispersed by a knowledgeable and entertaining guide. Out only complaint was that we were unable to get a seat outside! We had hoped for a great afternoon in the open air and instead had to sit inside. If you want to be assured a seat on deck, especially if you’re with a group, be sure to arrive early. We were there at 1:45 for the 2 pm trip and could not find seats together.
