What travelers are saying
- Julian BrownWashington DC, DC2 contributionsAmazing experience seeing Whales so close to Boston. The crew were very kind and helpful. August is definitely a good time to go.Written August 25, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- vision30Boston, MA8 contributionsAn amazing tour with Lucia! I had forgotten how pretty the coast of Maine really is! The trip included Cape Liddick lighthouse and Perkins Cove as well as Kennebunkport. Perkins Cove is a charming fishing village with a walking trail to the beach known as Marginal Trail, so you can get your exercise while enjoying the beautiful vistas!! In Kennebunkport we were escorted in a special trolley out to the Bush compound and the group before us actually saw Laura Bush out walking!! So it is possible to see celebrities!! Lastly, if you didn’t already know this, Maine is known for delicious blueberries and we had the opportunity to sample them in muffins, smoothies, etc. This trip should not be missed if you are in the Boston area!!Written August 24, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SanH433Summerfield, FL11 contributionsThere were a couple key attractions not included. North Church and Boston Tea Party. Both were excellent. We were happy we paid for them. Otherwise all was goodWritten August 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Allison Z49 contributionsSoaked in the back, thrill ride in the front. Either way a fun family outing on the water. Great to see the city from the water.Written August 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Deirdre DApex, NC35 contributionsBig Al brings Boston History to life in between delicious pizza stops. We loved all of the suggestions of places to visit and eat while in Boston and thoroughly enjoyed Big Al and his take on all of the historic events surrounding Boston. Wear your loose pants you will eat a lot!Written September 8, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- HfourmyFort Smith, AR3 contributionsGreat tour…delicious seafood and entertaining guide. Dan was great and provided historical information with a humorous twist. The food in
was filling and delicious! By far, the best clam chowder and cannoli I’ve tasted! We sat down at every location and leisurely enjoyed our seafood. I highly recommend this tour and Dan.Written August 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Thoroughly enjoyed our day trip to Martha’s VineyardWritten May 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lewis E8 contributionsBusy aquarium filled with school groups and young families. Entrance was easy visited the ray touch tank, penguins in the middle and group of harbour seals, central tank extends up 3-4 floors with large variety of sea life. Not a lot of larger sea life but a great selection from around the world and some interactive stuff for the kids. Coupled with the option to buy a multi ticket for other attractions like the whales and it rounds out nicely. Good for killing an afternoon. Prices in shop were pretty expensive.Written August 8, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Leah-AnneUnited Kingdom147 contributionsWorked great with the app, only problem is that I was here on weekdays and wasn’t able to book the Boston city harbour cruise because it’s limited days in the winter for city pass holders so that seemed a shame really it was one of the ones I wanted to do when I initially bought the pass. Was fine using it for museum of sciences, the view and aquarium. Didn’t feel like there was much choice really with the museums offered and the viewpoint didn’t seem as significant as everything else but we ran out of timeWritten February 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- BruceHot Springs Village, AR4 contributionsWow! We had an awesome tour! We were running late, but because our party of 4 were the only guests booked that day, they were flexible and really went above and beyond to make our visit memorable. Alvin is an outstanding guide. He is passionate about Boston, including its history and great food. Do not hesitate to book this tour.Written September 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
