5.00We went on the Boston Lunch Cruise with 90+ seniors for a day trip. We feel that the price for admission was fair, for what was included. We had a wonderful buffet lunch, the food was delicious. They also had a good variety of desserts on their dessert buffet. The boat was beautiful with multiple levels, on the outside levels they had seating so you could enjoy the views of the harbor and some games to play. The staff was very friendly and accommodating from the ticket people to the staff onboard. Staff did their job with a smile and friendly attitude. The games of bingo that they played were fun thanks to the staff, and the prizes were great. The seniors were very happy and many of them said they would do it again.
Nice relaxing cruise

5.00We spent a very lovely couple of hours on this lunch cruise. Lunch and drinks were great - plus the DJ and music were excellent! The seating staff and bar staff were exceptionally friendly - we all had a thoroughly great time!
Not worth the cost

Disco grouch

2.00The music was loud and nothing to get excited about. If we knew this was a disco cruise would have tried something else. Food was ok. No commentary which was disappointing but maybe we couldn’t hear it because of the excessively loud disco music.
Avoid this

1.00Avoid this trip. Terrible food, no service and expensive. The boat was set up with tables along the windows left open and they would not let us move. Many open tables. Expensive drinks not included.
Incorrect meeting-point address on the ticket. Missed our cruise.

1.00Address on ticket was incorrect!! I booked our Lunch Cruise through Viator (trip advisor owned). I arrived at the meeting point address, only to find this port was for another company's cruise. I called CityExperiences directly and they couldn't help. They directed me to Trip Advisor customer service who eventually got in contact with the cruise line direct. They confirmed they provided Trip Advisor with incorrect information. I did receive a refund but the last day of my vacation was ruined.
No Bueno. Would not do again.

2.00Nothing. The food was awful. Not what I expected. The picture when I booked was deceiving as I thought I was sitting outside eating sandwiches as mentioned in the booking. Waitstaff was good, but there were no seats outside.
