KATHYMAC68 Posted September 3, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I want to book the Whale Watching boat from the NE Aquarium. It’s not through the ship. We are in port from 7-7. The tour is 10-2. Should I be worried about booking this? Does anyone foresee any issue other than us sinking that we won’t make it back to the ship in time? Even if we get stuck out there, another boat can come get us and still be back by 3 or 4, right??? Guess I’m just looking for reassurance…..

Sox Fan Cruiser Posted September 4, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I think you are fine. Being in a car in Boston is risky but not a boat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driven in Boston for years. It’s right up there with Manhattan! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted September 4, 2022 #4 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I'd actually rate Boston worse. At least in Manhattan, the pedestrians and bikers follow the rules of the road and respect the cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the sidewalk bikers and the wrongway bikers! Both cities are difficult to drive in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I’m just looking for reassurance….. Sometimes the boats can stay out a little longer if they don't find whales initially. But I can't imagine them not getting back by 3 or 4. That happened to me once and it turned 4 hour trip into a 5 hour trip. They won't stay out forever though and with gas prices sky high, maybe they don't do that anymore and you have plenty of wiggle room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just need enough time to stop in Little Italy for some Cannoli. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
