Beautiful evening - It was very nice to see Boston from the water. We bought some shrimp cocktails and drinks… a little pricey on drinks and snacks but I’m a small town girl. Shrimp cocktail was delicious!!

Great Experience - The captain was great- he pointed some interesting things out, but didn’t overdo it. The cannon fire from the Constitution was really fun to see.

Good time - We had a lot of fun, nice views. Only complaint I would have is the people that get overly drunk and loud. Where we were sitting people were lifting their shirts and breaking glasses. But besides that we enjoyed our time :)

Not a good experience. - This cruise was nothing that I expected. The vast majority were on the boat for partying and socializing. The bar was open before the ship left the dock.The music was so loud nothing was heard by the narrator. As another reviewer said was we sat in chairs on the bottom deck and waited on the cruise to end. Don’t go with this cruise line if you want to know more about the skyline. I learned nothing about Boston’s skyline.
