| My husband and I enjoyed our trip out to Little Brewster Island to see the Boston Lighthouse. The staff was helpful and very informative. We were very pleased that we got to see two other Lighthouses on our way out to the island. |

| I have done tours all over the world (literally) and all over Boston. This is by far the best one. It was helpful, friendly, full of info, and super super cool. Who has ever been in the top of a lighthouse where the actual light is? (Other than all those folks in Puff the Magic Dragon?)
I took my dad (who is 64) for a Father's Day gift. He loved it too. No problem walking up to the top!
Go on this tour. Totally affordable, too! |

| My family & I spent four days touring the Boston area and the harbor tour was definetly a highlight. The National Park Service did a wonderful job. Our children participated in the Junior Ranger program and the attention given them by the NPS, Island volunteers, and Sally the lighthouse keeper was tremendous. The boat operators were very professional and the guided tour informational. Going up the Boston lighthouse was my personal favorite. Thank you to all -- this is a unique opportunity to see a part of Boston rarely seen. |

| We really enjoyed our trip out to the harbor islands. All the tour guides were fabulous- friendly, informed, and entertaining! We learned so much of the Boston harbor history thanks to all of them. What a beautiful day- the trip was a total of 3 hours- it was relaxing, and never felt too long.I would certainly recommend this trip to everyone. |

| Highly recommended. The island and the staff on the island, the rangers, and the boat crew were all very friendly and informative. Seeing such a piece of history of architecture, technology, and the area is amazingly interesting and beautiful. |

| I would have liked to have seen less time spent at the Boston Light and that time used to tour the harbor, e.g. see some of the other lighthouses (like the Graves Light) up close (or at least closer). Still a good tour, and I'm glad I did it. |

| This was a pretty good 3-hr excursion. I recommend getting the free tower pass also, because there's not much to do on the island but climb the lighthouse tower.
If you want more activities to do, take one of the other island tours. |
