6 months agoThe captain Miranda and Noah tour guide made the cruse giving insight to the river and its surrounding buildings. We enjoyed the selection at the bar, with one hand opening serving drinks the other holding the microphone. The curse was the right amount of time we got tickets on the dock that morning, great way to see Boston waterways.

7 months agoAbsolutely fantastic boat ride there is a bar on board the boats. I do highly recommend to plan and book your day in advance. These boats are a river boat style short, skinny, long and much more quiet as well as completely enclosed except the bow part.

7 months agoWe celebrated our 60 person wedding reception aboard the Valiant and it was truly an amazing experience. Georgie was an absolute pleasure to work with, very easy to get in contact with and answered all questions as well as checked in regularly throughout the planning process. On the day of, she took care of all of the setup and made sure the event ran as scheduled. Johnnys catering team was fantastic, we opted for passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour as well as a buffet and the food was delicious! The rest of the service team was amazing from the bartenders to the Captain and everyone in between! Our guests loved this experience and said it was the best wedding they've ever been to! We can't recommend this company enough. The boat was clean and beautiful, it gave the perfect back drop for photos. Whether you're planning a small event or a larger one like ours, a celebration with the Charles Riverboat Company will not disappoint! 10/10 recommend!!

8 months agoWe had the most gorgeous wedding last weekend aboard the Valiant and I cannot recommend the Charles Riverboat Company enough! The once in a lifetime views, great drinks, beautiful boat, and delicious food blew our guests away. But what really stood out to us was the STAFF! Dayna made this the smoothest most enjoyable process- she took care of everything and made us feel at ease the entire night. The bartenders and servers were so attentive and accommodating, even the captain greeted us as soon as we boarded. I cannot thank you all enough for giving us the best night of our lives!

8 months agoIf you're looking to host an event on Boston Harbor, Charles River Boat Company is your best choice! We hosted my father's celebration of life and ash ceremony aboard the Valiant this August and it could not have been more special! Planning the event with Melissa was such a pleasure and she covered and executed every detail perfectly! The crew lead by Allison and Captain Rich were top notch professionals! Everything from the moment we arrived was ship shape and the food/service was excellent! My guest and I could not have asked for more and it's a memory we will hold in our hearts forever!
