Boston Premier Brunch Cruise on Odyssey — Scenic Harbor Brunch with Buffet & Live Entertainment
Select participants and date
At the rail, the harbor opens like a stage. The city’s granite silhouette slides aft as the Odyssey eases away from Rowes Wharf, and the smell of coffee and warm pastries tangles with salt air that dares you to relax. Onboard, a two‑hour brunch feels both civilized and mobile: a buffet spread, a full bar, and soft live music under the climate‑controlled glass that lets you trade winter chill for harbor light without losing the view.

Adventure Tips
Arrive Early — Boarding Opens 60 Minutes Prior
Plan to be at Rowes Wharf at least 45–60 minutes before departure to check in, secure parking validation, and claim your guaranteed table.
Bring a Valid Photo ID
A government photo ID is required at check‑in for all participating guests—keep it accessible to speed boarding.
Prepare for Motion and Weather
Choose a mid‑ship table if you’re sensitive to motion and bring a light jacket for upper‑deck photos even on warm days.
Reserve Ahead for Holidays and Large Parties
This cruise sells out quickly for special dates; book early and ask about seating for groups to ensure you’ll sit together.
