Beautiful View of the City from the Water - We enjoyed the tour very much. It was a windy day so it was a bit cold on the top deck but we still enjoyed it. The captain gave us some commentary on certain areas but not the whole time which we appreciated. It was fun to sail under the planes landing at the airport. The boat (Northern Lights) is beautiful and very comfortable. It was not a full tour so we had plenty of room. You get a beautiful view of the city from the water.

relaxing way to see the harbor - great relaxing 1 1/2 hours. very nice to sit and see the Boston sky line from the harbor. Plenty of room to sit and relax and have a drink as there's a bar on board. The captian giving comentry of the main points we were seeing. And an added bonus of seals swimming in the harbor.

Beautiful View - Beautiful views of the city from the Harbor! A relaxing, enjoyable experience. Highlights of the city were pointed out but it wasn't a continuous narration of Boston. It allowed my husband and me to enjoy a cocktail, each other, and the views.

Great but Guide Not Talkative - Great time despite rainy day. The crew was attentive, and the tour guide wasn’t super annoying like on some tours. I would say that the guide was on the less talkative side, so if you want a ton of info on everything you’re seeing from the boat, this might not be the right tour.
