  • what a horrible man, dug hall
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/08/09
    well first of all, the man who sold us the tickets, I think his name was dug hall or something, was high on some kind of narcotic. We think it was those damn oxycontins. The devil, those things are! its to bad for him.
    Anyway, what a horrible experience. First, all the beverages on thge boat were either flat or warm. then the woman working ...

  • BHC is a class-act - great experience.
    By A Yahoo! User, 09/18/09
    Briefly stated…. BHC is a class-act. If our experience was the norm, we had a pleasant one and highly recommend any tour BHC offers.

    More detail…. On our recent vacation to Boston for a week, we purchased tickets online the night before for a 2-hour lunch cruise of Boston Harbor. Being mid-September, it was off-season and during a ...

  • Not a good experience
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/03/09
    The boat is a Transport Ferry, not a cruise type vessel. The inside seating has row after row of close together seating. Outside there is only enough deck space for maybe 25% of the people on board. Most people were stuck inside looking out of smeary water beaded windows and saw very little. There were constantly people standing trying to manuever to a place where you could see. It reminded me of a crowed subway car at rush hour.

  • Best part of the trip!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/30/08
    The whale watch tour was awesome! Saw over 10+ whales. The guide on the boat was very informative and excited about the trip also!
    It was 100% worth the time ( 3hr) and $ ( $36 per person)I would recommend to everyone and would go on the tour again when I return to Boston!

  • Whale watch nightmare
    By Katlyn, 05/14/07
    If you are considering this whale watch, I would definitely recommend not going. Within 20 minutes of taking off, almost everyone in our group of 30 was sick from the ridiculous turbulence. It was the kind of waves where you could not let go of the railing with both hands, and people were literally crawling on the deck to get to the stairs. The ...

  • Horribly run business
    By Paul, 01/09/07
    My wife and I took a New Year's Eve cruise with this agency, and about 2 hours into it the captain came over the loudspeaker and said there was a small leak in the boat. He said they had to go back to the dock to address the problem. My wife, who is 5 months pregnant, became very uneasy and we decided to get off the boat. When I called the ...

  • Not that great
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/08/05
    I took the Historic harbor tour, it's 90 minutes. It was about $18, not worth the money, in my opinion. We were given some history of the harbor, headed out a bit to view some islands, but never too far out of the long wharf bay. After the ferry turned around, the way back seemed to take forever, I started to fall asleep. Needless to say, I ...
