“Worth the time! This 70 minute boat tour on the Charles River was very informative. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and kept us entertained. We were able to view the many prominent building along the river and saw parts of Boston that we wouldn’t have seen from land. This a fun tour for people of all ages.”
“My group had an amazing time. It was a great venue to host a meeting. We will definitely do this again!!”
“People have been saying Friday night was the best employee outing we’ve EVER had, and I agree! Definitely looking forward to doing business with you again in the future!”
“My husband and I were married on the Lexington Riverboat; Melissa Otis was at the helm the entire time. She helped with everything from planning the menu, seating, handing tokens out to guests, and more that I’m unaware of. She was patient, timely with responses and the ultimate professional throughout the whole process…..about 1 year. The staff on the boat were equally amazing, as was the food from Jules Catering. We left almost wanting to get a divorce just so we could get remarried again…best experience and day ever!! A million thanks!”
