Thank you to everyone there that made my first skydive an experience I'll never forget!

The help does not seem appreciative of the business they're receiving and when you're paying 2x as much money to skydive in cape cod for the oh so terrific views, you'd think the extra 100 dollars would go toward some outstanding customer service. Wrong. They were rude. If you still decide to skydive here anyway and have a noon reservation, make sure you get there when they open because this place runs as first come first serve. I drove three hours to get there, waited for 5 hours to go skydiving, then clouds rolled in and i was unable to go. Good luck.

Fun, fun, did I say fun? Check your keychain for a bit of memorabilia after the fact. Unless my fellow jumper had something to do with it and won't admit it, you may earn a small trophy fob. The guide's exuberance in sharing their joy of jumping relaxes you quickly. The quiet, the beauty of floating over an island and encouragement to help swoop the parachute as you sightsee makes this location the place to take a leap of faith.

Out of the three of us in our group, we were all paired with someone who matched our energy and made the experience amazing. Not to mention, the views over Newport are phenomenal. Unmatched.

The date was August 22,2024. I woke up to beautiful sunny skies and started to get ready for an…read moreadventure that was planned less than a week prior. My dad had taken my son ziplining 2 weeks prior and after that amazing day he said, "How would Jacob feel about jumping out of an airplane?" I talked it over with Jacob and he was excited to go do anything Papa wanted to do. Unfortunately, age requirements leave him waiting 4 more years for his first jump, and I plan on taking him for his 18th bday. (If he still wants to go.) I thought to myself, Why does my dad want to do all the fun stuff with Jacob?! So I said, "Whats the matter, you don't want to jump out of a perfectly good airplane with a 40 year old?" The next message I got was, "Thursday morning, 10am, Mom and I will meet you at The Boston Skydive Center." After nervously reading through and signing all the forms online, we were good to go. When we arrived the weather was damn near perfect. Everyone who works there was so amazing. Checking in was super easy. They were extremely thorough with the instructions and made sure you felt safe and educated about skydiving every step of the way. On the walk to the airplane we did a little pre interview and went over the events that were about to take place one last time. Then, with a high five and thumbs up we were on the plane. The views while getting up to altitude were absolutely beautiful. It was such a peaceful ride. Getting ready to actually jump out of the plane was terrifying, but what are you really gonna do when you're already halfway out of the plane?? JUMP!!! It was the most insane feeling I've ever experienced. The views were even more breathtaking, and from up there, the world looked perfect. We jumped with two of the best, Boris and Ratin. Couldn't have asked for two better guys. (For multiple reasons ) The videos and still pictures they got were phenomenal and I am so impressed that they can video like that, multiple times a day, while jumping out of a plane when I could barely keep my eyes open from the wind. A core memory was made that day, not only from the jump with my dad, but also from seeing his video and the pure, whole hearted happiness that was written all over his face. Made my heart smile. Thank you for making this day so memorable for my Dad and I. It is one I will NEVER forget.

So I don't understand the angry review that is about upset about the event that was missed due to the pilot's cancellation for whatever reason, it would likely been weather related I would thino, but this wasn't a cancellation of a reservation for transport to a special event. This was a groupon tou around Bosto. I'd be embarrassed for trying to turn my groupon into an event ride, never mind having the nerve to go to the site complaining that your scheme to get more than what was promised di work out for yo. Next time you need a ride for a special even, shell out the money for a dedicated transport service, and you won't be stuckon the subway trying to go wherever w/ out the big, showy, ridiculous entracee.

Turns out the Duck Tours were tours in semi-aquatic buses that mix history, jokes, and sightseeing. We also got to go into the water and folks took turns driving the duck boat. What was delightful about our tour was our captain who entertained us with magic tricks, punny jokes, dad jokes, and history. We quacked at passerbys, other duck tours, recent graduates, kids in hi-vis vests. He pointed out the marines organized in a park with the Osprey and other planes. I left my knowledge of American history in elementary school, so everything was super fascinating to me. I thought my honey would enjoy this being a historian and all but he didn't care for the jokes, which I thought were the best part. Oh well. Worth a tour when you're in the Boston area!

My fiancé and I took a duck boat tour leaving from the aquarium location on Saturday afternoon…read more These tours are so dependent on getting a good tour guide, and I can't help but feel like maybe a little regulation is needed to make the experiences more evenly enjoyable no matter who your guide is. Our host boasted over 4000 duck boat tours, and I certainly didn't question his knowledge of Boston's history. However, I wish we heard more of the history he was clearly an expert on. Most of what I remember from the tour is him going on with personal anecdotes, telling stories that sounded made up, and interacting with a large family on board. I'm sure that family had a memorable and special experience, but for everyone on the other end of the many, many times he stopped to talk and joke with that group, we felt like outsiders. We felt downright ignored a couple times- once he asked if anyone was celebrating anything, I raised my hand to say it was my fiancé's birthday, but he once again fixated on the group he had a report with. The same thing happened when he allowed a group to drive the boat on the river, we volunteered but no use. For the steep price, I just think there are better ways to learn the history and see the city. However, the sunset view of the river is pretty.
