That was a Birthday gift from my wife and fortunately we had a chance to experience the activity together during our weekend trip to Boston, MA. The weather was perfect, we saw a few big whales pretty close (and a sunfish as a bonus!), the overall organization by Boston Harbor City Cruises was very good! I A truly memorable experience!

By: Sherri S
The sights were beautiful . The host was very cordial but her historical facts not all accurate. I expected a more romantic atmosphere as there were multiple people including children. Couldnt go on top deck because it was full. I feel like there should be less people or there should ne an option to pick the area/seat. Couldnt get pics when the sun sst due to overcrowding. Overall it was a great experience because I love the water.
Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hello Sherri,
Thank you kindly for taking a moment to share your review with us! My apologies that the number of guests aboard, the facts provided and the seating took anything away from your romantic night out. I completely understand wanting to get a good seat and enjoy a romantic atmosphere while seeing the sun set. My apologies for any troubles that this might have caused. Despite these circumstances, I am delighted that you had a great experience overall and could see the beauty from the water.
All my best,

We had a great experience! The snacks (cookies & sparkling water) were not quite as comprehensive as advertised, but still good! The canoe trip itself was very enjoyable, on a beautiful summer night with a gorgeous appearance by the full moon as we rounded the last corner.

Thank you kindly for taking the time to share your canoe trip! I truly appreciate you sharing your experience with us and we are so delighted that you were able to see the beauty of the area lit by moonlight.

Boston Harbor Lunch Cruise
Boston Date Night
Jun 03, 2021
By: Sarah L
The description of the cruise matched what we experienced as far as what they were offering; however there was a party bus of people who booked the same cruise as us that did not read the dress code and were not as classy as we had planned our romantic trip and anticipated we would have. The food was delicious. The boat was gorgeous. The overall experience was enjoyable but it would've been better if everyone who attended was fully clothed and didn't treat the lunch cruise as if it was a club/ party cruise.
Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hello Sarah,
Thank you for the almost perfect review! We hope that despite the presence of the other guests that you were able to enjoy a special night out with your fiance on a magnificent yacht! We're happy that those Boston Harbor views and dancing tunes could still create a memorable evening for you! Please be sure to share any photos of this magical evening!

Fabulous time. Loved every minute. Be sure to print confirmation and check in to get your tickets prior to boarding. Masks were required at all times on the boat. Bring a jacket for traveling on boat to viewing spot. It got a little cold outside because the boat clip long quite fast. We saw lots of whales. Staff were great. We would go again in a heart beat.

We are actually Boston locals, and went on on this food adventure as a wedding gift. Each restaurant was well chosen displayed by the atmosphere, tasty bites and drinks. Our guide, Nicole, was great. She slowed up down in a few spots and shared bits of Boston trivia and history that we didn't know. Overall, we had an awesome time and discovered even more restaurants in the area that we want to go back to check out.
Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hi Kirsten,
Thank you for taking the time to write in about your experience, and a belated congratulations on the wedding! So glad to hear you enjoyed your gift, that's always our goal.

Couldn't be happier with customer service from Cloud9 Living or with the Boston Harbor Cruises whale watch! We booked last-minute since weather was exceptionally good for this time of year and everything went off without a hitch. We saw more whales, porpoises, mola mola and other sea life than we expected and right next to the boat. It was a great day all around! Thank you!!!

Our son and daughter in law gave us this tour as gift knowing that we love to learn the history and culture of places we are unfamiliar with. And of course because of the food. We had a wonderful afternoon and met people from Chicago, upstate New York and others who were from Massachusetts like us. Our tour director, Hannah, was great. Her knowledge of the area was impressive. We loved hearing the personal stories about the restaurant owners of the establishments that we visited. When asked "what restaurant or food sample we liked best" . We couldn't choose because we liked them all. I would highly recommend this tour.
Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hi Lori,
It sounds like your son and daughter in law really put a lot of thought into this gift, and we're so happy to hear that you enjoyed your day out in the South End! I'll be sure to pass your compliments along to Hannah - it certainly sounds like you had a great group of people with you that day. I hope you found some great new spots to re-visit.

The guides were both knowledgeable and very protective of their group in traffic. I guess there were around 14-16 of us, but I didn't count.
The tour took nearly three hours and in humid and sunny conditions, so you should be prepared (water bottles are provided). Although you can't take photos when riding, there are several stops for just that purpose.
A good way to see many of the sights of Boston.

Derrick (instructor) was great. Super lame pricing - they ask if you want to 'go high' for $10 for about 30 seconds. I can't believe it is not included for $55 in 2 min. Total marketing that left a bad taste in my mouth...I wouldn't recommend it.
Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hi Christina, thanks for taking the time to share your experience with us! I did do a little research on the pricing for you and it looks like their basic most popular package, as you mentioned, is the 2-minute flight for $55 and this can be enjoyed by any experience level including beginners or first-time flyers. For safety purposes, of course, for beginners or first-time flyers, you are restricted from attempting tricks and flips as well as flying up higher into the air stream as all of these require personalized coaching/training and you MUST be an advanced or experienced flyer to perform these stunts safely. It is to my understanding that beginners or first-time flyers are never given access to fly up higher into the air stream so it is really awesome that our flight school offers 30 seconds at the end of the flyer's first experience to have their flight instructor hold on to them and fly them both up into the air stream to show them a little of what it feels like to be an advanced flyer! I apologize if you did not feel the pricing was fair but the "Fly High" for $10 is an extra thrill offered as an upgrade to the basic package instead of being included because not every beginner or first-time flyer wants to or is even comfortable with going as high as the advanced flyers go. We do appreciate your feedback and hope you have a Happy New Year! Best, Kelsey

Our family took the tour from a gift certificate from a Christmas gift. We had never done one before. It was lovely! Our tour guide, Rebecca , was fun and had great tidbits of history and interesting stories about the South End. All of the food was different and my kids all enjoyed it. We want to do another different one on another occasion!
Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hi Rebecca, That's wonderful! I'm so glad that the gift was enjoyed by the whole family, and that it has inspired you to try more food tours. I hope you were able to make some fun new memories, and that you found new spots to try. Let us know when we can get you back out there! Cheers, Inah

I tried new beers and got to enjoy them while learning about Boston's pub history. This is a must for anyone who wants a slightly different approach to the city's history.
Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hi Julie, I know that Mother Nature wasn't playing very nice this weekend, but I'm so happy to hear your perspective on it - that the rain only added to your experience! It does bring about a certain atmosphere to the city, doesn't it? Here's to tasty beers and history. Cheers, Inah

Harbor Sunset Cruise
Boston Date Night
Sep 04, 2018
By: Andrew W
Was pretty disappointed with this cruise. In the description, it mentions going to Boston Light. The ship never left the inner harbor and did not go anywhere near Boston Light which is way out in the farthest part of the harbor. The tour guide did not do a good job and seemed to be using a fake Irish accent when narrating that I did not hear when speaking to the man between narrations. One good point I will give the cruise was watch the canon fired on Old Ironsides at sunset. This tour fell far short of the experience promised and only gets two stars because of the canon. Since this is provided by another party, there should be a match between what is promised and what is delivered.

Enough of all, and not too much of any. The food was wonderful, the stops nicely varied, and Nicole's talk included a lot of interesting historical and architectural (i.e. - non-food) information that also made the tour deeper and more interesting.

This was a unique experience, however there were so many people on the whale watch that it was hard for me to see as much as others - I am short and could not get a spot near the rails while there were active whales to look at, so I spent a lot of time trying to see over peoples' heads and using my phone to record what was happening through small spaces between people. I do not have a solution about how to make things more equitable for all viewers, but hope that someone might think of an idea to help everyone have the best viewing experience as possible.

She was also organized and timely. I tried different foods I normally would not eat and all was good. I would however, swap the mini cupcake for something more savory. The cookie and vegan ice cream was enough of 'treats' and was delicious!

It was a cold early Spring morning, so it was cold and windy on the boat. The whales were more difficult to see than I had imagined, but we did see several whales. The ride back to Boston was rough due to a change in weather, so the boat was rocking more than on the way out
Response from Virgin Experience Gifts
Hey Jana,
Thanks for taking the time to write to us! I'm happy to hear that despite the chilly temperatures, you both were able to see several whales and, hopefully, had an enjoyable experience. Sounds like you were also lucky to get back when you did before the weather really changed.
Thanks again and have a wonderful weekend!

Each and every stop had wonderful tasting food, plus the presentation equaled its taste. We would certainly enjoy the experience again with friends or visitors.

The only complaint was there was a buffet and passengers started up early (not all food was out). It was 2-sided (same food), but people went down one side only and up the other with the same selections. The boat needed a host or hostess to give directions. Everything else was wonderful. Thank you for everything.

I had a Cloud 9 Living gift certificate, and your website made it simple to find an experience for both my husband and I to enjoy. We chose and thoroughly loved our Boston History and Tavern Tour. Our tour guide (Kristen) was friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The only minor detail we would recommend as a change is if the tour could end closer to where it began. The tour began convenient to parking and public transportation, but ended a bit of a walk away. However, we truly did enjoy the experience and have already recommended both Cloud 9 Living and the Boston History and Tavern Tour to friends and family!

This was a gift from our children, so I do not know how much it cost, but not sure it was worth it. They take you out from the dock, sail around a little bit and tell you about a few of the islands and bring you back. The staff was friendly, but had little interaction with the guests. The boat was nice, but not overly comfortable.

We had a wonderful night for a sunset sailboat cruise. The intimacy on the boat was perfect, just 40 people. The 2 deckhands (Abbey and, I wish I could remember his name) were fun to watch, personable, attentive and knowledgeable. It was captain Pete's birthday and he was a little surprised when I called it out for all to hear. His coworkers at the ferry terminal posted it on the message board. The sunset was terrific, the skyline lit up beautifully, perfect for a leisurely cruise. Awesome to see Royal Caribbean's 'Liberty of the Seas' pass us on the way out of the harbor. The only recommendation I would suggest is a lapel microphone with a small amplifier so the captain or deck hands could speak a little more about the harbor islands and some history. I'm from Boston so I know, but for vacationers I think that would be a nice touch. they seem to advertise it as a narrated cruise but it appears you have ask to get them speaking (unless the captain did and we couldn't hear because we at the front of the sailboat). We thoroughly enjoyed our night and we look forward to using Cloud 9 again soon.

The experience was great. We had a wonderful time, learned a lot, and had a very good experience. When we arrived at the kiosk location, the intake person told us that we needed a photo ID. Since we were going in a kayak we had left all those items in our car in the parking garage so one of us had to trek back to the car. When we approached the same intake person again, we did not need our photo ID, since we were on a pre-booked kayak tour. If we had been running late due to traffic this delay could have disrupted an otherwise stellar day. Looking forward to next year going on the America's Cup boat out of Newport.

The overall experience was great. The feeling of flying is different than anything that I've done before. The instructor was helpful as you figure out how to "fly," but quickly leaves you alone once you're ready. Overall it was a great time, and I haven't been able to stop talking about it.

Overall, we enjoyed it very much.

The reason I picked a 7 for the overall satisfaction was due to the fact it was foggy, and not the sunset cruise I was hoping for. I feel I should have been offered a choice to come back on a not so foggy day. Also, drink prices seemed way too much. $6.25 for a beer is a little steep. I may have purchase more for my family if the price was not so much. I was afraid to ask about other purchases knowing the price would be much more than I was willing to pay. I just paid a $125.00 for the cruise.

A brief explanation of the sights in the harbor would have improved the experience.

My wife and I had an excellent whale watch experience. The boat was smooth an quick. The captain was able to maneuver the boat quite close to the surfacing whales. The marine biologist on board was knowledgeable and friendly. The 5:30 tour returns to a picturesque sunset behind the Boston skyline. We couldn't have asked for a better trip.

I booked this as a surprise for my girlfriend. The view was beautiful, and we were a little surprised at how much historical information was given on the tour. Definitely a good trip worth taking (again)!!

There was some miscommunication somewhere along the line with our reservation. I had booked a bike and Brewery tour, but when we got there, we were told that that tour was discontinued. We were registered for another tour for the same time and it wound up being a great experience, but we were very disappointed that we were not able to go on the Brewery tour. Since we booked with you , I am also disappointed that we were not notified about the change.

The Boston Whart area is large and it's not clear where within the area to check in. Clearer instruction on the check-in location and the check-in process would probably help future people.

What a great experience. Indoor skydiving was a bit nerve racking but my instructor was very knowledgable and kind. I highly recomend others to conquer their fears and give it a try,

The check-in process could have been improved. When we arrived we had to wait in line to get our tickets and there was only one person at the counter and over 20 people in line. She was very nice, knowledgeable, and quick, but just one more person attending to those waiting would have helped. Because of this, the cruise left about 15 minutes later than the scheduled time because they needed to attend to everyone waiting in line before leaving. It was no big deal, but something that could have been improved.

We have used Cloud 9 Living several times and have NEVER been disappointed!!!
Our Sunset Harbor Cruise was magnificent! Evan, the young man who explained & educated us on all the sights, was SUPERB! We'd like to do this one again with family & friends.

We are both in our 50s and this experience was a gift from our daughter. It was one of the coolest things we have ever done and I would definitely recommend it to EVERYONE! It was really amazing, our guide was wonderful, funny and so talented. We will definitely do it again in the future! We used our gift on our 33rd anniversary and we had a blast!
