Overall a great way to spend time with family and enjoy the sites of Boston from the harbor! Nice size boat with plenty of room to get around without feeling congested. The girl giving the narrative was great and was easy to hear and follow. All of the employees were very nice and helpful. Some of us enjoyed a beverage while cruising. Towards the end of the tour they played entertaining music.

The narration was wonderful and they explained where we were going and the history of the sites that we were seeing and it was a beautiful day. We definitely social distance and I would do it again

Lot s of fun, particularly on a hot day. Did a great job of distancing the benches, and was very clean. I live in the area, but if you were a tourist you would not learn anything about what you were seeing. A little more narrative would be very helpful.

My husband and I were looking for something fun to do in Boston that would be safe during the Pandemic. Look at the "Keeping you safe during COVID-19" bullet points, I thought that I would feel and be safe. They required masks upon entry, but every single guest but one besides my husband and myself removed their masks immediately. While the staff put the benches 6' apart, social distancing was not at all enforced. Someone in a party of 8 pulled their bench right up behind me, less than 2' away. When I objected they moved to about 4' away. The description of the cruise included listening to the history of the Boston islands through the guide's commentary. That commentary turned out to be nonexistent. Other than that, the cruise was lovely. It was wonderful to be on the water with lovely cool breezes on such a hot day. The crew outran a local rainstorm. As long as I don't come down with COVID-19, I will remember it fondly.

There was a lot of space and not too many people. The views were magnificent I got to see a part of the Boston area that I never see.

It was a very relaxing boat ride in the harbor. However, it was adverted as a harbor sightseeing tour. We were on the boat for 25 minutes before they started narration of the Boston Harbor. That narrative lasted maybe 4 minutes and was extremely hard to hear what was being said. We even moved downstairs thinking we’d hear better but no such luck. The view and boat ride were very relaxing so if that is what your looking for it’s awesome. But if you’re looking for a tour that narrators the history/highlight of the harbor I recommend trying a different tour.
