We really enjoyed the Boston Historic cruise! We sat on the top of the boat close to the presenter. He was fabulous! We learned so much about the Boston Harbor and surrounding waters. We got to see several important monuments, locations, and ships of our country's/Boston's vast history. Our narrator/tour guide, Kevin, was incredibly informative and the way he presented the information was fun and almost like we were in a story! We got to see the Bunker Hill monument, the USS Constitution, and more!
