First the crew is amazing, I had my Mom with me and she uses a walker, letting her go on first and making sure she was comfortable meant the world to me and her. The experience was unbelievable, we saw a pair of whales and one of them turned and turned flapping the water , we also one of the feeding!! We were told it was a female whale and she kept her mouth open for at least a minute so all the seagulls were going in and out of her mouth trying to catch the fish!! The crew said this was something very unusual to see and that we were very fortunate

We saw a shark dolphins and two whales. The naturalist explained that it was unusual for two whales to be working together this time of year. She identified the whales by the markings under their tail. Each time the whales dived she enlightened us with whale facts. Then on the way back to Boston she greeted each of us individually and asked if we had questions.

It was honestly a bit more pricey than I was hoping, but to be fair I'd certainly say it was worth it. My only true complain was that it didn't last quite as long as posted nor did we go out as far as postsd, but we did see a few different whales and a juvenile one being a bit crazy with a couple jumps (and coming within 10 feet of the boat to say hi!). Super nice boat & crew, good variety of snacks/food/drinks - would 100% recommend and go again.

Warm day in Boston, which meant the cooler ocean temperature was more tolerable for me! Those who prefer the warmth definitely would benefit from a jacket. Naturalist did a great job at explaining/educating the guests on what was happening. I forget her name ... began with a C? We were on the tour on Mon., 08/04/25, 11:00am departure. We saw SEVERAL breaches from one humpback, and you can tell even she was excited! It's always more enjoyable when the guide really seems to enjoy their job as well! We saw primarily 2 humpbacks, but the one (Pitcher??) was putting on quite the show for us with the multiple breaches and lots of flipper slapping. It was a great time! Also got to see some Atlantic white sided dolphins on the way back too!! Other staff on board were also very friendly .... servers in the galley, those around the vessel to answer questions. I understand that we were lucky to see what we saw; sometimes nature doesn't always put on a show. I definitely cherished the time and appreciate the experience! ~Ken (along with Dave and Sam, Pennsylvania)

We saw a Humpback whale surfacing several times from the moment we got to feeding ground until we left. At times very close to our vessel. My 6 year old, my husband, & I had a delightful day. Weather was great!
