It was so diappointing that the tour boat had mechanical problems and therefore did not allow us to visit Graves Lighthouse. |

Our whole trip to Boston was based upon our lighthouse tour. Our flight was even booked based upon our tour time. Much to our chagrin, we received an email after we arrived in Boston telling us that our tour had been cancelled. Even though they tried to reschedule us, because of our flight times, we could not change our tour time. This was extremely disappointing. We tried to get them to allow us to go on the Thurs. tour, but were not successful. Needless to say, our trip ended on a very sour note. |

Not only were the tour guides, boat crew, USCG Auxialialists and, of course, Sally
congenial, the privilege of being there made the entire
tour unforgettable.
Thank you for this opportunity. |

The Boston Harbor Islands Lighthouse trip is highly recommended. The NPS interpreter was knowledgable and the support from the Friends of Boston Harbor Light was wonderful. All of the folks we met were very informative. We would definitely do this tour again and again as there is so much to learn, and we do look forward to climbing the tower on another trip. The time on Little Brewster Island was very nice, we want to return as soon as possible. We did feel we ran out of time to see everything--the interpreters had so much to tell us and so many wonderful stories. Meeting the only lighthouse keeper still tending a light in the US was a real pleasure. |

A very well planned tour of the Boston Harbor Isands. Bring your lunch and eat on Ltitle Brewster or on the Boat. You can learn as much as you want about the Boston Harbor Islands as well as a good look at a working lighthouse. Well worth the trip. Pick a Good day.... |

The day was perfect for a boat ride. The narritive guide was so knowledgable and interesting to listen to. All the guides were friendly. Boston Harbor has so much to see, and such an interesting history, I could go back again and again. The Light house was beautiful, I only wish we could have climbed tot he top. |

Great way to see the islands off Boston! |

The tour of the Boston Light is a rare opportunity to visit a remote outpost of Boston history. We had a lot of fun on this tour -- guides are knowledgeable and numerous, thanks to lots of volunteers. It also helps to have great weather, as we did. The boat ride is pleasant, if loud, making it somewhat hard to hear the tour guide. |

Excellent Tour! |

This was my first visit to Boston and my husband and I had a wonderful time on the Boston Light Tour. It was very informative and enjoyable. The lunch was delicious and well worth the extra money to order! We enjoyed the boat ride tremendously and thought that the experience was awesome considering the price was cheap! I would highly recommend it to anyone touring the Boston area!

My sister and I were looking for something different to do with our Dad for his Birthday. Since he is a Coast Guard Vet, we thought he would find this trip interesting. We were not disappointed! It helped that the weather cooperated by giving us a wonderfully sunny, breezy afternoon! The ride over was interesting, our Ranger was informative, although had a bit of trouble with her micraphone. The view from the Island was spectacular, just enough time was given to tour this "little" island. |

We took the ferry to Boston Light. The people that worked for the ferry were wonderful and friendly and informative. When we got to Boston Light the volunteers at the house were just as friendly and welcoming. Although we couldnt climb the stairs to the light because it was recently repaired and they will not let the public up there. It was a fun experience for me and my boyfriend. |
