What happens on the day
Catch golden hour from the best seat in Boston—the Charles River!
Your evening kicks off in the Broad Canal, where your expert guide will introduce you to the basics of kayaking and water safety. Then, it’s time to paddle! Enjoy gorgeous, waterfront views of the Boston skyline as you glide past the Great Dome of MIT to the Charles River Esplanade.
As you paddle, take in iconic sights like the Hancock and Prudential buildings, Citgo Sign, State House Dome, and the shimmering towers of the Financial District—all beautifully lit by the setting sun. Of course, your guide will keep you entertained with fascinating facts and stories along the way.
As day fades to dusk, you’ll be surrounded by gorgeous shades of yellow and orange. For the grand finale, watch the city’s lights come alive, reflecting like stars across the river’s gentle surface!
