There is a small cash bar. Sit outside for the best views. The narrator was great, a character for sure. It was basically to see the city coastline during the day and also when all of the lights were coming on after sunset.

This is a must-do experience in Boston. The narration was fantastic, and we learned so much about Boston. Seeing the city from this vantage point gives you a completely different understanding of the layout and development of Boston. You get stunning views, great picture opportunities, and a cannon salute from the USS Constitution at the end of the night.

The boat was not in the best of conditions… it was terrible but some of the paint was peeling off of the seats. The ride was smooth, and the tour guide Holly was absolutely great! Very knowledgeable. The sound system was surprisingly good. We didn’t have to strain to hear her.
