Amazing sunset cruise - A fantastic sunset cruise with Eric and his crew. Just a wonderful end to our first day in Boston. He was a great skipper, super knowledgable. It was a perfect evening! Great to have a local ipa and wine too.

Nice way to end the day - This was a nice way to end that day. We did several tours and it was great to watch the sun go down while on the water. Cocktail was a nice touch. Menu was limited, but staff was very friendly.

Rain couldn’t keep us away - The weather was rain/windy but they didn’t cancel the cruise so we went with raincoats and sweatshirts. As the voyage continued, the skies cleared up and we actually were able to enjoy a glimmer of the sunset. It would have been so awesome had the weather cooperated from the start but it was still a great trip. The captain narrated and we sat near the speaker so it was loud and clear.

The experience was very... - The experience was very nice. Commentary was a little hard to hear but overall nice experience. Boston at night is beautiful! The cruise kind of hovered and circled several times in the same area as a way to kill time I guess. Cruise could probably be 1 1/2 hour and a little cheaper. But overall nice experience with light fare and drinks offered. I would recommend.

Stunning Boston - The cruise was a wonderful experience. Boston skyline and the boats in the water were stunning. We met delightful people and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The captain was difficult to hear on the intercom. I would have enjoyed hearing the commentary.

Cruise experience was very nice, but parking info a disaster. Better parking and better sound and few more co - Finding the recommended parking was a disaster. Could not see the address for recommended parking at 400 Atlantic. Heavy, one way street, and took many minutes to loop around to find #400. Finally, as we were running late, went into parking at a hotel - but not the hotel we needed. Once in, there was a traffic jam. Couldn't move. A helpful held up a long line of cars inching along in the parking basement. We finally just took a parking spot, but expected to have a problem to recover our car. The cruise was very nice - but a little more description as we cruised would have been offered. But the audio was really poor, made hearing the few comments were mostly unintelligible. We left 35 minutes in advance of sailing. Arrived with 3 minutes to spare - last to board. Not sure I'd recommend the cruise unless better pretrip parking info.
