What people are saying about Boston

Overall rating

4.3 / 5

based on 813 reviews

It was good. The day was absolutely beautiful. The boat and water spectacular. The service was good. Staff members nice and courteous. We thought there would be more sailing than the zig zag thru the harbor. We figured it would be a sailing trip not sit on the boat while we go thru the harbor. We also thought the captain or crew would point out different sites to see or things to landmarks to look for. That did not happen. The Captain seemed slightly preoccupied with his own guest on the boat. If you are looking for more description of the Boston sites you may be disappointed. The Boston Skyline is beautiful and it was pleasant to see it from the water. Overall we thought it was better than larger tourist boats.

Boston: Downtown Harbor Sailing Cruise Reviewed by Anonymous, 10/12/2020

It was a great time getting to explore all the wonderful colors of the fall! It was a great experience, probably took about 10 stops in total to grab a snack/ use the restroom, see many different spots to see the leaves, and grab some lunch. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the leaves and the areas we were moving through and had the day planned out perfectly! I would do this again every weekend to see the changing in the leaves if I could! I just moved to Boston, and didn’t know where to go to see the leaves, and this was a great way to get to know the area around me!

Tour guide, Chris & Tom, were friendly and very knowledgeable. Weather was a bit gloomy & rained a bit while we were on the island but it was still a nice trip overall. Recommend taking the 3-hour island tour especially during off-season as rental options may be limited. Ruby & Gabor USAF fr JBMDL, NJ

Amazing experience. Saw half a dozen whales including two mother/calf pairs. We watched a calf playing at the surface metres from the boat which was incredible. The BHC team were clearly passionate about their work and educating visitors about the whales and efforts being made to protect them.
