	A great way to spend a summer day Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Sat, Aug 11, 07 1:30 PM	Dpulsinelli	Female	30-39	Local	Couple on a Date
	This was a great way to spend a sunny, summer weekend day. It was fun to hear the history of the Harbor Islands, which we previously knew little about. It was nice to get off the boat for a while at Boston Light, and we got some spectacular pictures. We will definitely be back next year when we can climb up to the top! The Coast Guard Auxillary staff and the NPS guides were all great to talk with. A great day all around.

	The Park Rangers were outstanding...especially Valerie Wilcox. She loves her job! The auxillary Coast Guards were also great.
	Great Day on Boston Light Tour Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Sat, Aug 11, 07 1:30 PM	awalsh	Female	40-49	Local	Family With Children
	Our family thoroghly enjoyed our day on the tour. All of the guides were informative and friendly and my children actually enjoyed an activity that we picked. Being a local resident I learned quite a bit about the history of the area that is right in my backyard. I would highly recommend this activity to locals and tourists, plus if the weather is perfect (as was our luck) there is no better place to spend the day but out on the ocean.
	Birthday activity Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Sat, Aug 11, 07 1:30 PM	leomoore	Female	50-59	Local	Couple on a Date
	Although no one can pick the weather for the day (ours was perfect), most tours are made or not by the guides. The ranger and the Coast Guard volunteers as well as the lighthouse keeper relayed a wealth of information and kept things interesting. They made themselves approachable for additional questions and knowledgable about the harbor and about history. My friend and I have always decided to participate in some kind of special activity rather than exchange birthday presents (who needs more things?). We'd both recommend the tour of the Harbor Islands and plan to take another trip to one of the other islands for a day to hike and picnic.
	Great Crew! Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Sat, Aug 11, 07 10:00 AM	clubpauly	Male	40-49	Local	Group of Friends
	Everyone involved in the tour and transport were very enthusiastic and friendly. A refreshing change from the usual loud-speaker harbor tours. I recommend this tour as an excellent introduction to Boston Harbor, the rich history of the islands and Boston Light.
	Excellent, classy trip Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Sat, Aug 11, 07 10:00 AM	Kathleenmcd	Female	50-59	Local	Family Without Children
	The ranger welcomed us; gave an excellent introduction on the dock; her talk as we headed out to the island wa superb, including lots of historical photos and quotes. Once on the island, there were plenty of people to answer questions and show us around. The island is interesting. The boat is lovely. We felt that it was a perfect trip and would enthusiastically recommend it to others.
	Just One Wish... Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Sat, Aug 11, 07 10:00 AM	cortrightj	Male	30-39	Domestic Tourist(s)	Group of Friends
	it would have been nice to know that the tours of the lighthouse tower would not happen because of the warrantee on the new lens before purchasing our tour tickets. Not that we would not have gone, but we were more disappointed because we thought we would get that piece until we were ready to get on the boat.
	Fun tour Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Sat, Aug 11, 07 10:00 AM	danprice	Male	60-69	Local	Couple on a Date
	The ranger and volunteers running the tour were very helpful and informative. The weather was perfect which made the day even more enjoyable. Boston Light was lots of fun. The keeper welcomed the group and gave an informative presentation. We spent approximately an hour walking around and asking questions. The remainder of the trip was a nice excursion around Graves light and back into the harbor. It was a perfect morning. We will probably do it again.
	Great time discovering Boston Harbor islands Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure

	My wife and I enjoyed riding through Boston Harbor to see the Lighthouse. The guide, Jessica and her coast guard volunteer Skip provided interesting commentary on the harbor, islands and lighthouse. We have seen the lighthouse and islands from the local shoreline through the years and it was delightful to take them in from the tour boat.
	Don't go when it's raining! Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Fri, Aug 10, 07 10:00 AM	worldwideweb	Female	30-39	Local	Family With Children
	I was dismayed when I saw the boat pull up - I thought it would be larger and more comfortable. The group was largely senior citizens, and it was raining, so everyone wanted to be indoors - and all the seniors needed chairs, so it was very crowded. I gave up on trying to see. The tour guide had a very monotonous voice (he was not the least bit engaging), and it was hard to understand him inside. The sound was better outside, but you got wet!! The island itself was lovely, but walking around already cold & damp was no fun. I was glad when it was over.
	Great trip to historic light Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Fri, Aug 10, 07 10:00 AM	msantucci	Male	60-69	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family Without Children
	The trip was an excellent excursion to the Boston Light. The boat rides was long enough but not too long. (Rain on the way out forced us inside where there were not enough seats for all onboard.) The time at the light was fun even though it was raining. The rangers and volunteers did an excellent job of telling the tale of the Boston Light and of Boston harbor. Great fun, even in the rain.

	the weather helped to make it excellent. visibilty in the harbor was great. there was plenty of room on the boat. the tour guides on the boat and on little brewster island were friendly, knowledgeable and answered questions. the only complaint was that we couldn't go to the top of the lighthouse.
	excellent tour and well worth the time and expense Boston Light Tour - Boston Departure
	Sun, Aug 5, 07 1:30 PM	sadler6525	Male	50-59	Local	Family With Children
	This is the second time we did the Boston Light tour and we loved it both times equally well. The cruise out to Little Brewster Island is enjoyable and it's fun going out to the outer harbor. We were disappointed this time that we were unable to climb to the top of Boston Light to view the lens due to warranty repairs to the lens from last year, but it didn't overall detract from the visit. I would highly recommend this tour. It's interesting, different and everyone involved, from the park rangers to the lighthouse keeper to the Coast Guard auxiliary personnel on island, are really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.
