Great Cruise - Our family took a sunset cruise on the Northern Lights in Boston Harbor, and it was a highlight of our trip. The boat was lovely, the crew were friendly and helpful, and it was a relaxing way to see the waterfront colored by the setting sun. We enjoyed the drinks we selected, as well, and there was a nice variety of options. We would recommend this as an activity for anyone visiting Boston or even a local looking for a relaxing evening.

Great evening - Was a good boat trip round the harbour. Nice that you got to go round once in daylight and again once all the city lights were on. Also great to be out of the rain!
