This was a great tour! John the narrator did a great job going over the so much of the harbor. The history of Boston is really amazing.

We bought a combination ticket with the trolley tour which gave us a bit of a discount. The boats are very crowded with little inside seating and the outside seating is not shaded in any way. The windows on the boat were closed which makes it quite stuffy. The narration over the speakers was hard to hear made even worse by the family sitting behind us who were on their phones the entire tme. The concession stand ran out of water on a 90+ degree day. Although they asked people to social distance and wear masks few did.

Sitting on the starboard side. Most, but not all sites of interest were on that side. Tour guide, Kevin, was excellent. Gave historical information, current and future possibilities, as well as his own perspective. Gave enough information to be informative and also leaving us with the desire to dig deeper.
