Wonderful birthday trip! - The sunset and views of the city were just gorgeous. We had perfect weather. My boys got the passengers around us to sing an impromptu happy birthday to my husband. Really friendly and happy atmosphere! My husband thought this was his best birthday ever!

Boston Harbor Sunset Cruise - Excellent narration of the Boston waterfront. We had a beautiful clear evening so the sunset was very nice. The cannon firing at sunset was worthwhile seeing considering the historic nature of the battleship. Cruise was a good value.

Perfect Way to See Boston - Having lived in Boston all my life, I don’t get to see it like visitors do but the harbor tour was a chance to do just that and it was beautiful! The sunset was stunning, the information about the piers, Castle Island, Logan etc…really interesting and the views were just gorgeous.

Nice skyline views - It was a good experience, even though it was cloudy (I can only assume that the views are better when you actually see the sunset). As with other cruises, you have to choose between being stuck next to a speaker to listen to the narrative or walk around and enjoy the views.

Interesting - Finally got around to trying this after living near Boston over thirty years. We had very nice weather and a nice time but it would be unpleasant with cold, wind, or rain. Arrive early and get in line if you want a seat on the top deck where you can see best. You get a pretty good look at Logan and its air traffic. If they're taking off to the South the jets climbing out a thousand feet over the boat interrupt the narration. By the way, here's a little aviation lore. Airport runways are named with two digits with an implied "0" after. For example, Logan's East-West runway is named 09 or 27 depending on which way you're looking. The names stand for 90 and 270 degrees and are pronounced "zero nine" and "two seven".

Enjoyable Sunset Cruise - We enjoyed our sunset cruise of the Boston Harbor! The highlight was actually being right under three different planes landing in Logan International Airport! We got to see the flag being taken down on the USS Constitution. The view of Boston was beautiful! It was a recording rather than life narration, and it was an older boat but you can't beat this for the price. Drinks and snacks were sold on board or you could get a package ahead of time. I would do it again!

It was an amazing cruise. Swaying with the beautiful sunset... - It was an amazing cruise. We had a relaxing time with beautiful sunset. It's just a pity that the group around us were so noisy that the atmosphere was a little bit damaged. Also, while I was sitting in my seat enjoying the view, some people stood between the seat and the landscape, blocking my view. I think it would have been even better if I had been a little more considerate of my surroundings.
