Masks are required on transportation and while the crew handed masks out to people boarding the ferry, they didn't ensure that passengers kept them on once the ferry left the pier. And the crew didn't wear them either. I get that most of the passengers were outside as was the crew and probably most are vaccinated (we are) but either follow the rules or don't hand out masks.

Fun way to start my Boston trip…read more I read that you can take the water taxi from the airport to Long Wharf. The #66 bus stops right outside of baggage claim and came within minutes and we were on our way. The trip to the water taxi was about 15 minutes because we stopped at several terminals picking up other passengers. When I got to the "station" there were two boats waiting. It was cold and wet so I'm guessing most people opted for an Uber. The water taxi was warm but much smaller than expected. The trip to Long Wharf was quick, about 10 minutes. I paid upon entering the ferry. Cash and credit excepted. The current fare is $12 one way for adults. The ferry let me off steps away from the Marriott Long Wharf. Conclusion - takes longer than a cab or Uber ride, but I love water and it's a great experience.

Unfortunately, they stopped taking the Charlie card (even if their site said differently), so we had to pay separately for the rides. Cheap, but it's annoying to think the card will work but it doesn't anymore. Didn't help that the staff was rude. There were other people upset they couldn't use the card! Otherwise, nice boat, kind fellow passengers and nice views!

a BYOB Brews Cruise around Boston Harbor?! Yes, please!…read more Cycleboat Boston, based in Charlestown, is a family-owned company providing both public tours and private charters for up to 20-26 guests. Each boat has a central table with ice-filled coolers that is surrounded by 12 bike seats for passengers to pedal to power the boat but don't worry! You don't have to pedal, there is an outboard motor. And if pedaling isn't your thing at all or there's more than 12 of passengers, each boat has a comfy lounge area in the back that is set up for conversation, sipping on your drink and drinking in the views! All cruises are BYOB (cans only and no hard alcohol - a craft beer lovers dream) and you can also bring food/snacks on board! For our cruise, we enjoyed charcuterie cones from Kured.co and Scuba & I obviously had to bring along some on-theme beers including Cushnoc Brewing's 'Can't Buy Backbone' IPA, Wormtown Brewing's Summer Ale and a pounder of Montauk Brewing's Summer Ale (all purchased at Dion's in Waltham). As someone who is happiest in/on/near the water with a beer in hand and has so much pride in my city; this was a dream! I am actively looking for any excuse to get back out on a Cycleboat!

The Gray Line New England Sea Coast tour was one of the highlights of 2016. This review on this…read morevery tour will be my very first Yelp review covering a subject in three different states. The nine hour tour started off in Boston Massachusetts at the Massachusetts Transportation Center then into northeast Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine. This review breaks the New England Sea Coast tour by the three states for easy reading. Massachusetts: Hotel pickup to New Hampshire 286 The tour started when the bus picked us up at the hotel. This was the shuttle bus to the Massachusetts Transportation Building in downtown. This is where we paid the $69 prior to boarding the actual tour bus. The driver, who never gave his name was a knowledgeable and entertaining tour guide. As we left downtown, he told us the facts behind the landmarks we were passing that included the Massachusetts State House, the Old State House, a cemetery, and Boston Commons. After leaving Boston on the Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge. Once we passed the Charles River, the driver took a hiatus on talking until we got off Interstate 95 near New Hampshire. As the bus cruised north on Interstate 93 and northeast on Interstate 95; I took in the New England roadside scenery in a very comfortable bus. Usually I get this phobia when I am not in front of the bus. This bus was so comfortable that it was not bothering me being in the middle. New Hampshire : An exit south of the New Hampshire border, the bus turned east on Route 286. In a few minutes we entered New Hampshire where we passed miles of wetlands. Our driver gave one fact after another from New Hampshire is expensive to live in, to most of the lobsters you will eat are male, to if there is a marsh nearby you will have a lot of sea food. When we made the left onto northbound New Hampshire Route 1A we would travel alongside the Atlantic Ocean until we met up with US 1 in Portsmouth. The first stop was Hampton Beach where we walked near the sandy beach and quickly looked in gift shops. Maine : Near the Pisquatica River at the Maine border we got on I-95 for a few miles. Now in Maine we soon got off the Interstate and in a few minutes were along the rocky Atlantic Coast of Maine. The driver continued to pass on his encyclopedia knowledge of the New England Coast. Our second stop was the Nuddle Lighthouse. The bus resumed along the Coast until it met up with US 1 near Ogunquit where recent suburban sprawl replaced forests. The tour guide would bring up all the Sprawl attributing it to the area becoming popular when George Bush started vacationing in Kennebunkport. Near the Rachel Carlson Wildlife Preserve, the charming side of Maine returned. In a few minutes was our third stop in Kennebunkport where we enjoyed a Maine Lobster Roll. After the third and final stop we headed back to the Atlantic Coast where we saw the vacation home of George Bush and the historic architecture of the estates in Kennebunkport. This was the northernmost point of the tour. The bus drove out of Kennebunkport in a Southwest direction on Maine Route 35. The last sight we saw was the Wedding House. As soon as we got on southbound Interstate 95 toward Boston, the tour officially was over. My final paragraph on the tour starts off by suggesting that you sit on the right side of the bus. The right side windows overlook the Atlantic Ocean, the Wedding House, and a nice view of the Charles River returning into Boston. In conclusion I highly recommend the Gray Line New England Sea Coast tour.
