This was such a fun and unique way to enjoy Gloucester! The tour guides were top notch, although…read moredon't think of this as a harbor tour specifically. You are listening to fun, booty-shaking music so there's no focus on narrating a boring tour of the harbor. They are happy to answer questions and point out anything you're interested in and they do it eagerly. Think of this as a mini girls trip on water! Bring your drinks and laughter and you will have the BEST time! Highly recommend A++!

Owner pointed out boats, historical spots, points of interest, lively old salt with lots of stories. $10 paid onboard with 3 stops, hop on/hop off all day. What a way to see the harbor, learn some history of the port, brush up on nautical terms, points of interest on shore, and be entertained!! Such a value! Very fun & don't forget to get a picture with Cathy. Captain Patrick was entertaining with stories and landmarks, slowed down so we could see Wicked Tuna taping a show. Talked about fishermen bringing in their catch to the auction, very informative. First mate, Decklin did a poetry reading, very dramatic, well done. Well worth the $10!!

I learned a lot, got to see hidden gems I didn't know existed in my own backyard and have some incredible photos to add to my portfolio. If you haven't gone out with Violet or Corey in the Jeep you really need to schedule it! We had so much fun just the two of us, it was like hanging out with an old friend! Loved it! Thank you so much, Violet! Can't wait to go again... in a week haha!

Or just search for YouTube videos on the history of ice. I wouldn't even have minded if they charged you a couple of bucks for this 15 minute tour in which the guide literally shows you some pictures of frequent customers and blocks of ice and then dumps you off at the dock behind the building. Not sure what I expected but couldn't believe that this actually got good reviews at all. Again great merch, got some cool hats and the t-shirts were pretty sweet but the tour...thumbs down!

Our tour guide Sam showed us a movie that told the history of the ice industry, Then we took a little stroll around the modern facility that services the fishing industry and makes bagged ice for the local area. We even saw some seals frolicking near the dock where the ice is loaded onto fishing boats! I imagine this tour would be fantastic any time of year. The length and price were more than appropriate. Besides, they sell neat t-shirts, hoodies, etc. right there in the gift shop. My only regret was that I didn't have any cash on hand to tip our fantastic tour guide. Sam, we owe you are beer! After their tour, you will saying, "Next time, make it Cape Pond Ice!"

We used Groupon and had no issues. The ticket booth was clearly marked and they had a cute photo area for before boarding. The website has great directions for parking, what to wear, and other helpful tips. The naturalist on board was fantastic and talked for the majority of the trip, sharing so much information about the wildlife and the surrounding area. We loved the historical facts about the region. There were snacks and drinks on board. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to have a Sam Adams Oktoberfest. We could also use a card to pay which was great because we forgot cash The crew on board was fantastic and super attentive to guests. There were a few people on board who were a tad sea sick and the crew was there to help! I thought this was a really nice to touch that they tried to provide support and tips for easing that woozy feeling. We saw whales! There were approximately 5 separate whales and two species. Before we left the dock we saw a seal in the harbor.
