Made some great memories on the ocean today! We were signed up for the first sailing and it was packed, the second sailing was less than half so they switched us thankfully. We saw multiple whales. Hot dogs, pretzels, sandwiches, chips and soda for sale on the trip. Bathrooms on the ship. Be prepared for 4 hours, totally worth it!

AWESOME! Was hoping to see 1 or 2 whales, we saw dozens all around us, near and far. Such an amazing experience and the staff was super knowledgeable and friendly. So be warned, it's a good 1.5 hour ride out and it can be bumpy, allot of people (not us) got sick. I recommend sitting inside near the back (by bar) and then go out when arriving at the whale site. I was worried about getting a good spot, but the whales, and the way they mannouver the boat makes it easy for everyone to see. Highly recommend this tour!

We went on a whale watching cruise with Boston Harbor City Cruises. I highly recommend you use this company. The captain is Whale SENSE certified (knows how to safely boat around whales). They have staff from the aquarium on board to search for the whales and then explain to passengers what kind of whales they are seeing and what behaviors they are exhibiting. We had an amazing time. Our kids really enjoyed the excursion as well. The trip is about four hours long. They have food and drinks for sale. The staff is professional. This trip is well worth your time and money!

Great way to spend an afternoon in Boston! It was a little cloudy when we went but the summer weather more than made up for it! The view of the skyline under sunset was gorgeous and the guide was very informative and funny. 10/10 recommend!!

It varies from the Boston harbor rates ($29.00+5%) to higher if you advance-book online through a 3rd party. But price-compare as 3rd parties might have specials if you spend over a certain amount. I'm not sure if the price is cheaper if you buy it at the wharf (doubt it, but then again, you take the chance of them being sold out).
Yes
I went on 2 whale watches with BHC/NEA this year and highly recommend you go.
If you are going to take the ferry then it will be inside the ferry
Thank you for responding
They might still run. If the cruise is postponed or cancelled they will issue tickets for another cruise time.
The cruises usually run every 90 minutes or so
Intercontinental hotel
Yh there is...but check on the website for the correct prices
Us the iparkit app if you park at the garage near the aquarium. The rate is cheaper than taking a ticket.
We just went there and scheduled for later in the day. I guess it depends on how busy they are... But the ships are pretty big and they had room for more passengers when we went out....
It Better to buy on line
They're usually pretty good about emailing back. Sometimes you may have to call them and if you're in the area, you could also stop by the booth
That's possible but whale watches are much farther offshore.
Weather is rough
We felt sorry for the guide who did his best and was very informative. Maybe you can have a party section for those who don’t want to look or listen! The fact it was a history tour suggests people come to learn.
Go to BHC ticket booth next to science museum or online great deals BHC.com
3.30 pm on week days and 5.00 pm on Sunday.
I don't know accurately but its huge spaces in two floors.
Yes, though five minute delays aren't uncommon
$ 47 for Sr. Citizens. It is around 3.5 hrs. tour in total. Very good experience. Must watch
There is .most of them are 25$ for the whole day .
Don't think
There are a few different types of cruises. The Constitution cruise departs every hour. I think the whale watches depart twice daily.
Check the website. We cannot offer you answers since we only have used the facility as tourist.

It *may* be possible but everything would have to happen with no delays. There are many possible unexpected causes for a delay when taking the boats. You would probably be better off taking an earlier ferry and plan on getting something to eat or doing something else to pass the time either in downtown Boston or on the airport property.
Check into the go Boston card. It has a lot of the local destinations at a discount including the harbor tour if you're planning on seeing everything.https://www.smartdestinations.com/boston-attractions-and-tours/_d_Bos-p1.html?pass=Bos_Prod_Go&allInc=true&gclid=CjwKCAiAv9riBRANEiwA9Dqv1WhdFYpj2eBPEWXUt-Hix-fAtJF7DaUlVd38s-HBrEX8YCZbJGHzjBoC6ycQAvD_BwE
They usually give you a unique number card with web address to pay & download.
Tickets are usually available at the harbor. Better book online if possible to plan ahead.
Well there parking garages close but it's easier to take the T or call for a ride
If you're going to be in Boston for a few days I recommendthat you purchase GoBoston pass. It is well worth it.
Sorry I don't know. I bought my cruise ticket with the purchase of the HOP on hop off tour.
Better to call them and get all details
$25 to $31 price only varies a few dollars from Boston harbor online tickets our in person tickets.
There are multiple pay lots nearby. If you go to their website they list the garage that the Harbor Cruise will validate for.
Yes
Yes. The ferries run year round from Hingham to Boston. I think its $12 one way.
Not in the Harbor Cruises as they only ship at 11.00 am and 13.00 pm
We went last Saturday and there was plenty of whale activity.
No. Eatables can be carried with you. Snacks and beverages are available on board on payment. Have a nice outing
